This week’s episode we discuss the issues raised in Ephesians 1. Believers have been given every spiritual blessing of God according to this text. Among other blessings, we have the full privilege of sons through our adoption in Him.

Predestination and Man’s Will

Our discussion of this text includes a discussion of predestination and man’s will or volition. The mystery of these doctrines leaves us with truths that have some apparent contradiction, but we can trust that God’s character, as revealed in Scripture, is not compromised by either His sovereignty or our volition.

All Things are United in Him

He lavished his blessings on us in Christ. He causes His blessings to abound or overflow in Jesus Christ our Lord. All things are united in Him. The mystery of His will is made known in Him. Our inheritance is in Him. Our sealing by the Holy Spirit is in Him. The Holy Spirit seals us and is our guarantee. The richness of our blessings in our Lord Jesus Christ overwhelms us as we study this text.

His power toward us who believe is called immeasurable by Paul. Our blessings in Him are beautifully explained in the text of this letter in Ephesians 1.
