“When I was a boy, my father, a baker, introduced me to the wonders of song,” tenor Luciano Pavarotti relates.
“He urged me to work very hard to develop my voice.
Arrigo Pola, a professional tenor in my hometown of Modena, Italy, took me as a pupil.
I also enrolled in a teachers college.
On graduating, I asked my father, ‘Shall I be a teacher or a singer?’
“‘Luciano,’ my father replied, ‘if you try to sit on two chairs, you will fall between them.
For life, you must choose one chair.’
“I chose one.
It took seven years of study and frustration before I made my first professional appearance.
It took another seven to reach the Metropolitan Opera.
And now I think whether it’s laying bricks, writing a book—whatever we choose—we should give ourselves to it.
Commitment, that’s the key.
Choose one chair.”
The first three chapters Paul is hammering home one concept!
He is stressing our ...

Fritz Kreisler the worlds foremost violinist as travaling to London for a conert and had a hour before his ship sailed.

Setting out from Hamburg, Germany, one day to give a concert in London, violinist Fritz Kreisler had an hour before his boat sailed.

“What for?” asked Kreisler.
“You have Fritz Kreisler’s violin.”
“I am Fritz Kreisler,” protested the musician.
“You can’t put that on us.
Come along to the station.,”

“Now are you satisfied? he asked.
The policemen let the musician go because he had done what only Fritz Kreisler could do.

Exposition -
In Chapters 4-6 he is hammering one concept!
Paul very often moves from doctrine to duty, from truth to practice, from instruction to exhortation, and we see him do that here.
Exhortation - How we should live in Christ.
Look at verse
eph 4:1
This is how you live - this is how you behave - this is how you carrie yourself.
That great theologian and scholar Aerosmith famously talked about a song - that calls you and “Walk this way”
Followers of Jesus must walk His way.
There is a certain way that in light of who we are that we should live.
A certain way that remembering who’s we are we should carry ourselves and contduct our lives.
eph
Walking His way means being humble, gentle, and careful.
Humility - If you are going to walk his way - if you are going to walk like Jesus humility is a must.
God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble!
The secret to church unity is humility.
Gentleness - This is the term used for a domesticated animal - The idea that is communicated in this term is strength under control.
Christ is a picture of perfect strength under perfect control.
A gentle person is not someone who demands and expects to be served but uses his/strength to serve others.
Christ was not a weak man - Christ was one of unimaginable strength that was perfectly under his control.
Having power directed for the Good of the kingdom.
Walking His way means being gentle.
Walking His way means being intentional.
Walking His way means being careful.
Commitment to the faith means commitment to the faithful.
Gospel fidelity leads to corporate unity.
What is the key word in the section - “ONE” Seven times in three verses Paul used the word to make a point!
Unity!
Many New Testament scholars believe this was an early Christian confessional hymn, and it may well have been
This is an early confession of faith.
This would be something that Christians would proclaime as a confessional people - they might recite it or sing it...
The basis for the unity of the people of God is the unity of the God the people.
This is an early confession of faith.
This would be something that Christians would proclaim as a confessional people - they might recite it or sing it...
We become part of the one body - the church through the Holy Spirit of God.
The spirit of God makes us part of the people of God!
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine;
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
One LORD -
Early Christians gave their lives over this one manifestation.
Christ is Lord
Believers expression of faith was closely connected to their baptism- What is baptism - it is going public with your faith in the ONE LORD Jesus Christ!
