2. The Metanarrative of the Ephesian Chronicles

2. The Metanarrative of the Ephesian Chronicles

A metanarrative is an overall analysis, a trajectory of understanding derived from many statements and about all narratives of historical meaning, experience, or knowledge to do with whatever subject is to hand – i.e., for us, The Ephesian letter and what happened in Ephesus throughout Paul’s mission there. A metanarrative, full of its own importance, should even predict a possible future outcome…

God’s Master Plan for the Ages – The Overall Statement of Ephesians 1

At this moment of time, as far as I understand, the RQ-4 is the only unmanned high-altitude intelligent surveillance and reconnaissance drone the United States Air Force has. It takes photos from operating altitudes of around 60,000 feet. It could, if required, operate accurately from altitudes even higher.

26. Paradigm Shifting

None of us see the world as it is.

We all see the world as from where we are and how we think, ie: how we are conditioned to see it.

PARADIGM     /     MAP        /      ASSUMPTIONS.

Most facts have no meaning whatsoever apart from the interpretation we give them.

The more aware we…

When a stone hits water there are ripples.

Faith is a choice. “Choose you this day who you will serve” Josh 25:15.

With our hearts we believe; with our hearts we doubt.

There is a process of believing – HEART-MOUTH – ACTION.

Life is too  serious to be faithless.

Matthew said it was the man with leprosy (Matthew 8:1-4).

John said it was the water into wine (Chronologically first).

However Mark and Luke said “deliverance,” was the first miracle Christ performed. With two witnesses I’m going with Mark and Luke.

Let’s see what we are talking about:

Ephesians  roughly divided into two sections.

Chapters  1 – 3: Positional, doctrinal, theological truths of who we are.

Chapters  4 – 6: Practical, experimental outworking of 1-3 in life.

This is similar to Romans 1-8, followed by Romans 12:1.

Same principle as … At Conversion Paul said:
