The document is a passage from the book of Ephesians that discusses what it means to be "in Christ". It lists 9 things that believers are in Christ: 1) Holy and blameless, 2) Blessed with every spiritual blessing, 3) Chosen before creation, 4) Predestined for adoption, 5) Have redemption and forgiveness of sins, 6) Made known God's mystery and will, 7) United all things in heaven and earth under Christ, 8) Have an inheritance as God's children, 9) Sealed with the Holy Spirit as a deposit until redemption.
Everyone who would be saved from sin and from hell, and would go to Heaven when we die, must place all our faith in Jesus, as God's Son, the Chosen One who would die for the sins of men, and be raised from the dead in the Power of God.

One Building, One Body - Ephesians 2:19-3:6David Turner
The Church is the building and body of Christ. Each member has a functional role in the structure and purpose. Free PowerPoint Download at http://BibleGuy.org
Though the first promise of God proclaimed that Messiah would be born of a woman; the prophets declared a "virgin shall conceive;" Mary, the mother, questioned "How can this be seeing I have not known a man?" and Dr. Luke examined in detail the virgin birth, there are many who challenge the belief in the uniqueness of Messiah's birth. This very brief study examines the reasons for believing in the virgin birth.

Rooted and Grounded in Love - Ephesians 3:14-21David Turner
That God will empower us through his Spirit to comprehend His love so that we may be filled with His fullness.
Not that we love God more, but that we comprehend just how much God loves us.
With any structure being built, the foundation is of utmost importance. What is the foundation for your life? What is the foundation for your faith? These really are important questions! The foundations humans lay include their own goodness and good works. These people feel like they can be saved by "doing enough good" in the world. Others recognize their goodness can't save them but view Christ as only supplying what little they lack to get into heaven. God laid a foundation of Jesus - ONLY JESUS! None of your righteousness, none of your good works - ONLY JESUS.

GOD LOVES US ALL SO MUCH!!! :-)
(needless to say: God loves us all soooo much Catholic or not ...actually God loves us all sooooo much even if we don't believe in Him or "hate" Him!!!! :-)
Predestination is one of the most widely taught doctrines in Calvinism. The biblical understanding of this passage reveals a much deeper underlying principle and a richer store of information than can be imagined.
God want's to do great things for us. A scripture based study into predestination reveals that God wants to glorify us. Allow the scriptures to open the pathway that God desires to bring us on.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

the purpose of His will.”

also predestinated to be
conformed to the image of His
Son, for Him to be the First-born
among many brothers.

mystery of His will, according to
His purpose, which He set forth in
Christ.”

12 Now we have received not the
spirit of the world, but the Spirit
who is from God, that we might
understand the things freely
given us by God.
37. 1 CORINTHIANS 2:12-13
13 And we impart this in words
not taught by human wisdom but
taught by the Spirit, interpreting
spiritual truths to those who are
spiritual.

through the blood of His cross, by

Himself; by Him, I say, whether
they be things in earth, or things
in heaven.
41.

inheritance, having been
predestined according to the

Judea and Samaria, and to the
end of the earth.
