The Ends - Part 2

The lesson on January 9, 2022 was part 2 of "The Ends" study.  Comparing a child's perspective to an adults is how Wayne opened up the instruction by comparing a children's book on Dr. Fauci to a book written for adults called "The Real Anthony Fauci" by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.  In this comparison, we are reminded of the scripture in 1 Corinthians 14:20 KJV that says we are to not be children in understanding but rather have the understanding of an adult.  This is also emphasized from the Apostle PAul in Ephesians 4:14 KJV.  The lesson continues to review what had previously been covered up until we looked at 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 KJV.  We learned from this passage to take note of the many "when" statements that provided a necessity of the timing of when the ends would be achieved.  The calling of "The Mystery" that was revealed to the Apostle PAul after Acts 28 is not part of the ends specified in Corinthians which is an Acts epistle.  The scripture reading was from Ephesians 4:11-15 KJV

"11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"
