Part: 1
The Apostle Paul compares our present bodies to temporary tents, which are meant to make us long for our true home with the Lord. This message is a reminder that even when this earthly “tent” is taken down in death, believers know they have a permanent, God‑made, eternal body waiting in heaven. Paul groans not for death itself but for the Rapture, when mortality will be “swallowed up” by life and believers will instantly receive glorified bodies like Christ’s. Until then, those who die are “absent from the body, and… present with the Lord,” fully conscious and at rest, awaiting the day when body and spirit reunite in eternal glory.

In this continued teaching, we learn that prophecy describes God’s earthly plan for Israel, which revolves around material blessing and a works‑based expression of faith. The mystery reveals God’s heavenly plan for the Body of Christ, which is blessed with all spiritual blessings and saved by grace through faith alone. Prophecy was foretold through many prophets and entrusted to the Twelve, while the mystery was unveiled only to the Apostle Paul. Unlike the prophets, who often didn’t fully comprehend their own messages, Paul fully understood the mystery and desired that all believers grasp it as well.

In the first of this two-part study of contrasts, we see that prophecy reveals God’s earthly program for Israel—centered on a coming earthly kingdom—where Christ reigns and Israel holds a place of supremacy. The mystery, initially revealed only to the Apostle Paul, describes God’s heavenly program for the Body of Christ, a spiritual organism of believers with Christ as its Head, and Jew and Gentile equal in one body. Under prophecy, Gentiles are blessed through Israel’s rise, but under the mystery they are blessed through Israel’s fall, as God turns directly to individuals in grace.

The Apostle Paul’s message in this lesson centers on Christ’s love—a love so vast in breadth, length, depth, and height that it surpasses human knowledge, yet can be increasingly experienced as believers grow in Him. He prays that Christians would be strengthened by the Spirit, become a place where Christ is “at home,” and be rooted and grounded in His love. As believers grasp more of this immeasurable love, they are filled with the fullness of God and transformed into Christlike maturity. Paul concludes by praising God, Who is able to do “exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think.”

In this episode, the Apostle Paul reveals that God made him a minister of the gospel of grace and entrusted him with revealing the mystery—truths previously hidden but now made known through him. Through God’s resurrection power, Paul preached the unsearchable riches of Christ to the Gentiles and sought to help all understand the fellowship of the mystery. Even angels learn God’s manifold wisdom by observing the Church, which now has bold and confident access to God through Christ. Paul then begins a prayer for believers to be strengthened by the Spirit to live out these truths with power and maturity.
Part: 7
We learn in this teaching on Ephesians 3:1-6 that God revealed a completely new, previously hidden program—the mystery—directly to the Apostle Paul, through whom Christ disclosed His heavenly purpose for the Body of Christ. This mystery was never revealed in the Old Testament, the Gospels, or to the Twelve, but is now made known: that Jew and Gentile are joint‑partakers of God’s promise by the gospel. In this age of grace, God has formed the Church, with Christ as its exalted Head and with a heavenly calling distinct from Israel’s earthly program.

In this study, the Apostle Paul reminds Gentile believers of their former condition—“having no hope…without God.” But now, in Christ, those who were once far off have been brought near by His blood, and the dividing wall between Jew and Gentile has been removed. Through the Cross, Christ as “our peace” created one new man, the Body of Christ, reconciling both groups to God and granting all believers equal access to the Father by the Spirit. As a result, believers are now fellow citizens, members of God’s household, and living parts in a holy temple where God dwells through His Spirit.

Part: 3
The Apostle Paul explains, in this lesson, that the question “What must I do to be saved?” has had different answers throughout Scripture because God’s requirements have changed across dispensations. In past ages under the law, salvation involved faith plus works, including sacrifices, circumcision, and water baptism. But after Israel’s fall, God revealed through Paul the gospel of grace, in which salvation today is by grace through faith alone, completely apart from works. The only response God requires now is to believe the gospel—that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again.
Part: 5
In this episode, the Apostle Paul emphasizes that salvation is entirely by grace through faith, not by human effort, works, or religious performance. Because Christ fully paid the price for our sins through His shed blood, salvation is God’s free gift—received simply by believing the gospel. No one can boast, since justification and redemption come solely from God’s unmerited favor. As God’s workmanship, believers are created in Christ for good works—not to earn salvation, but to live out the transformed life His grace produces.
Part: 4
The truth of Scripture is that all men apart from Christ are separated from the life of God. In this teaching, the Apostle Paul reminds believers of their former condition—spiritually dead in their sins—in which they followed the world, the flesh, and Satan, and were deserving of God’s wrath. But God, Who is rich in mercy, made us alive together with Christ, saving us entirely by His grace. Through this salvation, believers are raised and seated with Christ in the heavenly places, sharing His life and exalted position. For all eternity, God will display the riches of His grace and limitless kindness to us through Christ Jesus.
