* In his letter to the church of Ephesus, Paul exhorted the believers to "walk worthy of the calling with which they were called." * We have seen that God, in His Sovereignty and according to His grace, has established that man could be delivered from the consequences (wages) of their sin through faith in the sacrifice of Christ upon the cross. * But ... is this salvation only available to those in Israel? ... Israel had always been viewed as "the chosen people." * Fortunately, for us Gentiles, the answer is an emphatic NO! The free gift of God is extended to ALL who believe. * Today, we see further revelation of the plan of God which He established before the foundation of the world. In this portion, Paul reveals the mystery of Christ - the formation of the church through our reconciliation to God, and one another, by the propitiation of Christ. |
