The Biblical Mandate of the Multi-ethnic Church Dr. Mark DeYmaz

The NT Church Was Multi-Ethnic! Envisioned by Christ John 17:20-23 Described By Luke Acts 11:19-26; 13:1 Prescribed by Paul Ephesians

I. Envisioned by Christ John 17:20-23

John He prays for Himself (1-5) 2. He prays for His disciples (6-19) 3. He prays “for those also who believe in Me through their word” (20-23, NIV)

3x that we would be one! they may all be one John 17:21 that they may be one John 17:22 that they may be perfected in unity John 17:23

The “hina” Clause an “if … so that …” proposition ”If they will be one (though I can’t guarantee they will) two results I’ll guarantee …”

So That … … the world will know that You sent Me …”

So That … “… the world will know That You love them.” John 17:23

II. Described by Luke Acts 11:19-26; 13:1

The Church at Antioch Acts 11: They spoke intentionally to both Jews and Gentiles (20b) 1. Diverse Men of Cyprus/Cyrene (20a) 3. Large numbers came to Christ (21, 24, 26) 4. Believers were first called Christians at Antioch (26)

Diverse Antioch Acts 13:1 Barnabus (Cyprus) Acts 4:36 Simeon (Niger) Lucius (Cyrene) Manaen (Judean) Saul (Tarsus) Acts 9:11

III. Prescribed by Paul Ephesians

Overview (1-3) Chapter 1 - Unity with the Father through faith in Jesus Christ Chapter 2 - Unity of Jewish and Gentile believers via the body of Christ Chapter 3 - this is the mystery of Christ …

To Be Specific … The Mystery? Jews and Gentiles are one in the church. Ephesians 3:6 Administration Of The Mystery! Therefore, walk in a manner worthy of your calling (i.e., be one in the church). Ephesians 3:9; 4:1-6

… the manifold wisdom of God might be revealed and His glory displayed through the (local) church. Ephesians 3:10 21 So That …

… we might may be able to comprehend with all the saints … The breadth, depth, length and height Of God’s love which surpasses knowledge. Ephesians 3:18, 19 So That …

And what is He able to do - immeasurably beyond - all that we might otherwise ask or think? Ephesians 3:20

Make Us One! in the church “… to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus … forever!”

Chapter 4 - The why and how of unity A. Walk worthy of the calling (1-3) B. Only one Lord, one faith …(4-6) C. Gifts for the good of all (7-12) “UNTIL WE ALL REACH UNITY IN THE FAITH … BECOME MATURE …” (13) Chapter 5 - Be one with your spouse Chapter 6 - Be one with your parents, children, employers, employees Overview (4-6)

And One More Thing … It’s a Struggle! Ephesians 6:12 Not against flesh and blood … Against spiritual forces that seek to God the will and power of God on earth by keeping us apart. So pray for me, that boldness will be given me in declaring THIS message!

What God Is Doing “I have become convinced that God is not very interested in the church healing the race problem. I believe it is more true that God is using race to heal the church.” Chris Rice More Than Equals
