All things...

Ephesians 1:7-10

Have you ever stopped to consider what this means?

Two little words, usually glossed over, "all things;" what do they mean?

What are the possible implications for a proclamation that God intends to reconcile all things?

How does the flavor and scope of our individual salvation take on new and different connotations?

How does the shape and reach of the mission of the Church change and redirect under such an overarching goal?

Certainly we must come to see that our Western, consumer, materialist, individualist, capitalist, democratic, culture has blinded us to the possible answers to such questions; in fact, has blinded us to the questions themselves!

What things does God intend to reconcile to Himself in Christ?

Make a list... what is on your list?

What is not on it?
