Ephesians 4:7-11. Unity is the theme of Ephesians 4:1-16. This message looks at verses 7-11, which discuss the provision of spiritual gifts from God for that unity. These gifts are God-given abilities for service. As Christians, we don't just hang out here on earth until God takes us home. Rather, He saved us for a purpose; we all have God-given jobs to do. Verse 7: Presentation of gifts. Verses 8-10: Christ's privilege to give those gifts. Verse 11: The people to whom the gift is given. (September 14, 1980)
