Ephesians 3: 7-9
May 17th 2026, Third Lord’s Day of the Month
 Rev. Tadashi Nagae, Pastor

Through Paul’s confession, let us learn about the grace of God which has been given to us as well.

Firstly, by grace, we have been made as ministers of the Gospel. This means proclaiming the Gospel faithfully, and serving to bring people closer to Christ. We are not worthy for it, but let us remember that this ministry has been entrusted to us by grace.

Secondly, great grace from God has been given to truly humble people. We are not worthy to be used by the Lord, still great grace from God has been given to us. The more we realize our own insignificance, the more we become aware of the magnitude of God’s grace.

Thirdly, the immeasurable riches of Christ have been entrusted to us. The Lord has given us, who are saved, wonderful and immeasurable spiritual riches. And He has entrusted us with the ministry of proclaiming these riches to people.

Let us walk with the awareness that we are made as ministers of the Gospel.

<The Word of the Bible>
Of this gospel I was made a minister according to the gift of God's grace, which was given me by the working of his power.
Ephesians 3: 7 (English Standard Version)
