You are NOT beyond His grace…beyond His Mercy… nor beyond hope.
We look at Ephesians 3:8-11 and find the Gospel’s purpose in being made plain to the least of us.

Ephesians 3: The Gospel (p2)
Serving is part of the Gospel and it’s something we all can do. Serving is in the imitation of Christ as a faithful son or daughter of God. Listen as we review Ephesians 3:4-7 on Paul’s exhortation to be a servant of God.

Fresh Brew #2
a cup of insight from the Bible to perk up your thoughts.
בּוּשׁ
Buvush : shame
Symbolic interpretation: The house is pinned open with weapons.
What’s you’re idea of home? Ideally it’s a place of love, acceptance, and security.
When we talk of shame, the Hebrew word ‘buvush’ steeps a different view. That concept of the home (beit) is pinned open (vav) with the threat and uncertainty of weapons/harm (shin). Another way of looking at it is when the house comes before His presence/power (Shaddai). In both cases, there is shame as things are not as they should be; there is a lack of authority or order to keep the peace. God is put as an afterthought in the home instead of at the forefront. Like last week, I mentioned that when God isn’t honored, disorder follows.
Psalms 25:3-4 (NIV) 3 No one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause. 4 Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths.
Consider the way out of shame is to set things in their right priority: to learn the ways of the Lord and following the path they set.
