Verse 10 is a key verse in this reading. Embedded in Ephesians is a call to the church to be in dialogue and confrontation with the surrounding culture. "To let God's light shine -- this is the servant task ascribed to the church in Ephesians 3:10." So comments Marcus Barth. See page 365 of his commentary on Ephesians 1-3 for an excellent statement on the public ministry of the church.
