The end of Ephesians 3:16,19 teaches saints to be equipped and “strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man.” God’s mighty eternal power and wisdom enable us “To know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.” To mature in Christ’s love, it’s...

How to Love My Husband and Children (Titus 2:4)
