There is a distinction between who we are (identity) and what we do (role, gifting). 1) The direct object: love is a verb; what/who do we love? 2) What does it mean to become a mature person, biblically understood? Becoming a person is different to being trained in a role. Biblical education teaches us how to be persons. Issues in relationships are addressed by starting with the people. We cannot have mature ministries, mature fellowship without mature people. Moving forward requires learning the correct lessons.</p> https://yetanothersermon.host/_/whbc/sermons/2294/Daniel RalphSun, 10 Mar 2019 18:30:00 +0000http://whbc.sermonmanager.net/sermon/moving-forward-139:55Daniel Ralph<p>Moving Forward</p><p><strong>Series: </strong>Unity and bearing with each other in love (Spring 2019) </p><p><strong>Speaker: </strong>Daniel Ralph</p><p><strong>Date:</strong> 10th March 2019</p><p><strong>Passage: </strong><a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+4%3A1-7&amp;version=ESV">Ephesians 4:1-7</a></p>
