Ephesians 4:11–16: How Ministry Is Done in the Body
Ephesians 4:11–16 answers the question of how ministry is done by placing it in the whole body, not in a few leaders. Christ gives people to his church to equip the saints for service, and the goal is maturity measured by the fullness of Christ.
Ephesians 4:11–16: Christ Equips His Church
Christ himself gives gifted people to his church, not to perform the ministry for everyone, but to equip ordinary believers for serving and building up the body. The aim is maturity: settled unity in the faith and steady growth into Christ as each part supplies what it has been given.
