GET INVOLVED EPH 4:7-13

But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it. EPH 4:7 But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.

EPH 4:8 This is why it says: "When he ascended on high, he led captives in his train and gave gifts to men."

EPH 4:9 (What does "he ascended" mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions?

EPH 4:10 He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.)

EPH 4:11 It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,

EPH 4:12 to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up

EPH 4:13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
