God has lavished grace upon us through Jesus Christ

God chose us in Christ.

God has blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ.

As we start working through the Paul's letter to the Christians in Ephesus, we take time to read through the entire letter.

Christ's bodily resurrection is the the believers' assurance of our certain hope: the dead in Christ will rise first, the living will be caught up together with them to meet the Lord in the air, and all will enjoy eternal reunion with Him.

Paul's instruction to the church for younger men.

1 Peter 1:1-2 Elect and exiled according to the foreknowledge of God the Father

Our sin requires judgement, but Christ has born the judgement of our sin.

Christians need to guard their hearts against the danger of unbelief.

"Take care! Encourage one another all the time, any chance you get" - How the people of God are the means of God to keep us in the life of God.

Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

Paul offers the work of Christ in creation and redemption as the rebuttal against the confusions and delusions of the world.

The Bible offers strength and encouragement for facing struggles in such a way that Christ is exalted and those around us are blessed.

Christ is sufficient for overcoming sin.

We need to develop a taste and desire for the whole counsel of God's word...not just the pieces we like here and there.
