Ephesians talks about godly living a lot. We might wonder how long we are supposed to keep doing this. Do I ever get a break or do I ever get to retire and just take it easy?
Well, only if we think we can achieve certain goals in this life.
Perfect unity in the faith
The full knowledge of God
Perfection
Measure up to the fulness of Christ.
In others, there is no point where we can stop growing and maturing. We can always seek more unity and learn more about God and strive toward maturity and allow the fulness of Christ to dwell in us.
There is no retirement age for growing in Christ. The things we read about above are not going to happen here on earth, but that doesn’t or shouldn’t keep us from striving for and growing toward them. We keep on keeping on till the day our salvation and sanctification and holiness is made complete with Him in heaven.
