Ephesians Chapter 1 Discussion Page 8

Chosen saints the elect before the foundation because they knew and know the truth of the word. Predestin from before the foundation. Reads like Jeremiah that GOD KNEW them before this earth age of the flesh and they are destin to stand with Christ.

There's only one God an that is the lords Jesus Christ

Jesus thinks very low of the Pharisees, very very low of them. He actually just thinks that they can't read and love death.

In such a time like this, we need God's Grace to sustain us and we need His Peace in our lives on a daily basis. The enemy is very busy. He is attacking me right now through my oldest daughter and granddaughter as the Word said this would happen on the Last and Evil days God's grace is sufficient thorough difficult times and all the time and He will give me Peace! Amen

Grace is God's willingness to bestow a part of Himself in and upon us and God gives us His peace : Not as the world gives : His peace passes all understanding and there is no sorrow to it !!

The LORDS GRACE is poured out by our SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST through LOVE. For GOD so LOVED THE WORLD, HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIMSHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. JOHN 3:16 The LORDS GRACE IS POURED OUT THROUGH AND BY THE LOVE OF HIS SON JESUS CHRIST. The GRACE we receive allows us to receive greater Faith by the LORDS written WORD, POURED OUT IN THE HOLY SPIRIT. EPHESIANS 3:20 Now unto HIM that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. This is the LOVE OF GOD that pours out by GRACE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST IN TYE HOLY SPIRIT that gives us the PEACE THAT WE AS GODS CHILDREN so desire. We do not know HIS WAYS fully, but by HIS GRACE must trust in FAITH BY HIS ALL THAT PEACE IS OBTAINED BY HIS LOVE. When we realize EVERTHING IS FROM GOD WE CAN OBTAIN THE PEACE WE SEEK BY LOVE AND REVERENCE OF ALL THE BLESSINGS OUR LORD BESTOWS ON US. Read what KING DAVID SAID ABOUT OUR GOD. 1 CHRONICLES CHAPTER 29. WHEN WE HONOR THE GOD OF OUR FATHERS FULLY IN HEART, MIND AND SOUL THE PEACE OF GOD WILL TRULY BRING THE PEACE WE SEEK. GOD BLESS ALL.

It's amazing. The words of God upon us is in all chapter of Ephesians which have change a lots in the all world . Thanks You Jesus

ittruth is wondwefull book truth

The LORD liveth and blessed be my rock and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation. Blessed be the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD. Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me. And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory Amen, and Amen. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for he hath visited and redeemed his people,

Ephesians is one 0f my favorite Pauline epistles.

Comment*God's multiplied blessings to believers are constant with the fact that He selected them in eternity past for Himself ( Rom 8:29) and predetermined that they should be a part of His own family via adoption ( Rom 8:5)

Ephesians IS the pinnacle of the church epistles .
You may notice that Paul starts his letters with Grace and peace, but here he adds and to the faithful in
Christ Jesus , Ephesians comes to life after living Romans for some time it is Romans amplified the understanding
just explodes after looking at Romans then Ephesians.
Ephesians chapters 1-3 take Romans chapter 8 to it;s greatest hight

Guidelines of our heavenly pathway to holy ghost, threw baptism"

children of God praise him who made earth and heaven and all the things that are in am an african i have been reading all ur comments but rilly bless him who saved you and real this has showed me that ur growing as new bornes as scripture say in 1peter 2:2 that like new born infants, long for the pure spritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation.

Indeed he has blessed us.

Everything we have comes from God through Christ our spiritual gifts, healing, peace, faith in Him, our desire to belong, seek Him and inherit eternity plus our physical blessings come from God through Christ Jesus.

I have been rejected all my life and there is no one who would ever exchange anything for me. I was always passed over. At a ripe old age, I am finally realizing that God loves me. it is a beautiful thing. I am blessed by my Lord and Savior because he not only loves me, but is good to me and in my life and it is all because of what Jesus did for me. Yeah, Jesus paid an ultimate price for me to have all those spiritual blessings to enjoy. I should be more thankful because he has done more for me than I realize. I am richly blessed indeed!

Heavenly Father our God, by Your Holy Spirit, You reveal Your mystery to the faithful that there are multiple ends: the end of the church age and the end of corruption by wrath. Those of the body of CHRIST that are here TRUST they will not be subjected to Your wrath, Father. Thank You Father our LORD our SAVIOUR and bless all standing before you who minister to us in spirit. In Christ Jesus we are Saved and give Thee thanks. Amen. Baruch 4:22 For my hope is in the Everlasting, that he will save you and joy is come unto me from the Holy One, because of the mercy which shall soon come unto you from the Everlasting our Saviour.

I am seated with Christ in heavenly places . I rule and reign in my life through Jesus Christ . I am Blessed with all spiritual Blessings in Christ Jesus . I am Blessed !! I am Blessed !! I am Blessed !! Blessed be the God and Father of my Lord Jesus Christ !!! I keep growing in Love with Him more and more every day !!!

Love this holy book.

V. 4-12 It is not of the will of man, but the will of God who calls the elect.

Vs 1 Saints, set aside ones that were chosen from before. Before this flesh age by God to stand against Satan at the end when he comes as false messiah and the elect will be delivered up and the Holy Spirit will be speaking through them as Joel chapter 2 tells.People will chase this superntual angel who calls himself Jesus but it's not CHRIST ours comes as a thief unexspected at the 7th trump.

Ephesians teaches us how to love and to continue in love" and not to be a part taker of evilness. This book is powerful Jesus Christ and our Father has given us the way to live through his word. Every word that is written in the bible comes from GOD: through man. As he gave his only begotten son to come and lead us. That was GOD: working and speaking through his son. AMEN.

Lu2627, what I think is that God is all powerful . Lillian thinks that we have to accept him. Scripture commands all to repent and believe, but none can in and of themselves.

the bible is a survival kit for those who are lost

Deuteronomy 32:39 "See now that I, even I am he, and there is no God with me: I kill and I make alive: I wound and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand."
What do you think of this verse?

Being one the most informational passages about Christian conduct and promise, it also raises an important and baffling question. If in fact we have and believe, why are/do so many sit on their blessed assurance???

I find ephesians is hope and faith that fills my soul. We have hope through our Lord Jesus Christ.

What a promising God to all of us He is good all the time. We love Jesus because He FIRST LOVEs US. We have redeemed and our sins are forgiven and pardoned by the blood of Jesus according to his riches of his grace we must be thankful and praised Jesus for he is our Lord our Savior. There is no other above name its only Jesus our Jehovah Jireh, Shalom and Rapha. Our job now is to accept Jesus.Amen

The book of Ephesians talks about the glory we have in Christ.
God hath set Him above every other name and He is set at the right hand of God.In his name authority has been established both in heaven and on earth and in the life that is to come.Hallelujah!
