Eph. 3:10-11 : 10 in order that now to the rulers and authorities in the heavenlies the multifarious wisdom of God might be made known through the church, 11 According to the eternal purpose which He made in Christ Jesus our Lord, The church is not something thought of by God after man's fall. The church is actually purposed in God's heart even from eternity past. Regardless of what happens, God still wants a group of people to express Him and glorify Him. However, man fell and God had to recover man back to Himself. Thus through incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and becoming the life-giving Spirit - this processed Triune God can now enter into our human spirit and make home in our hearts. This is the goal of God's economy, from eternity past to eternity future, to gain a group of people joined and knit together to become the universal Body of Christ. Hallelujah!
