Re: What does it actually say?
Who told you that:
quote:
The main theme of Ephesians is the Church, the Body of Christ.
Another major theme in Ephesians is the keeping of Christ's body (that is, the Church) pure and holy.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Re: What does it actually say?
Ephesians is an inter-office memo. It was not written to the whole world or all of Christendom but to one church. It begins "Ephesians 1 (King James Version) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:"
The main theme of the memo is to do; to actually do works.

Re: Pauline Collection Cover Letter
In other words, by Him making me alive in Christ, I am willing and able to do good works.
What does the evidence show?
Do you do the works?
