건축자가 되기 위해 바울을 따름 | |
성경말씀 | |
엡4:13~14 그리하여 우리 모두가 믿음에서의 하나와 하나님의 아들에 관한 온전한 지식에서의 하나에 이르게 하고, 또 충분히 성장한 사람이 되게 하여, 그리스도의 충만의 신장의 분량에 이르게 하려는 것입니다. 이것은 우리가 더 이상 어린아이가 되지 아니함으로, 온갖 가르침의 바람에 밀려다니거나 파도에 요동하지 않도록 하려는 것입니다. 이 가르침은 사람들의 속임수이며, 오류의 체계에 빠지게 하는 간교한 술수입니다. | |

Following Paul to be a Builder | |
Bible Verses | |
Ephesians 4:13 Until we all arrive at the oneness of the faith and of the full knowledge of the Son of God, at a full-grown man, at the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, (14)That we may be no longer little children tossed by waves... | |
Words of Ministry | |
Notice that in this verse Paul says “we,” not “you.” When Paul wrote this verse, he himself was already mature. However, he was waiting for the immature ones to grow up. In other words, he was waiting until we all arrive. Paul did not want to arrive at the destination ahead of the younger ones. Rather, he was waiting until we all arrive at three things: at the oneness of the faith, at a full-grown man, and at the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. ...the three phrases actually refer to one thing. Paul expected all the saints to come up to his standard and to be the same as he was. Paul was a builder, and we all should be builders also. Paul was not some great official. At most, he was simply a member of the Body. The difference between him and most of us is that Paul was a building member, whereas most of us are just builded members. A babe cannot be a building one. He first needs to become a builded one. For this, a spiritual babe needs to grow. If we would be a builded member and especially a building member, we must grow. Furthermore, we need to develop certain skills.... The way to perfect the saints is to feed them so that they may grow [spiritually] and to train them so that they may learn certain skills [such as preaching the gospel and caring for others]. | |
