The heart of this lesson is Ephesians 4, which is a recipe for receiving the Physical Witness of Christ. As such, the following questions will guide the class to teach each other on this matter:

.. Compare and contrast Unity in the Church (4:4-6) with Individual Salvation (4:7)
Why do we have different callings? (4:11-12)
What is Faith? What is Knowledge? (4:13)
What is the relationship between little Children and Parents?
.. (4:14-15; 5:1-2; 6:1-3)
.. How is that like our relationship to God?
Other Questions:
What is the Dispensation of the Fulness of Times?
How is Christ the Chief Cornerstone of the Church? Of our Lives?
