Men and women have long harbored a dream of creating a better society. John Stott has been repeatedly drawn to Paul's letter to the young church in Ephesus, which paints a vivid picture of a new society founded on Christ's teachings. In stark contrast to our world of oppression, pain, separation, and division, this society shines with vibrant colors. John Stott has expressed his profound admiration for Paul's letter, which envisions a renewed human community. According to Stott, Paul's message of uniting all things in Christ through the unity of his church and the dismantling of all barriers that divide us from God has deeply moved him. He emphasizes Paul's call to break down the divisions between different ethnic groups, husbands and wives, parents and children, masters and slaves. These insights are valuable to anyone who seeks to build the church into the new society that God has envisioned.
