SOAP Ephesians 1: Come & See

Ephesians 1

I have often said that the book of Ephesians is the book written just for me. It is within these very pages that the Holy Spirit within me was awoken and I came alive and aware of the woman God created me to be!  These pages are invigorating and give fresh wind every time I read them.  

BACKGROUND

What you are about to read is meant to be taught to every church.  It is the constitution of our faith, the great summary description of all that is precious and esteemed in Christian doctrine and Christian living.  This powerful letter, Paul writes to the church of Ephesus around AD 60, while imprisoned in Rome.  The book of Ephesians cements in its few pages, the position and authority of the church over EVERY other force.  The letter is meant to ground, shape, and challenge believers in their faith. Paul highlights the mystery of the glory of Christ for every believer.

Come & See

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.

It matters.
