A few months ago, I did a study on Ephesians. It has quickly become one of my favorite books due to its incredible amount of insite jammed into 6 simple chapters! Cant get much better than that. So here are some breakdowns of what i received in each of these books.
Chapter 1.
We are in! God made a way, through his Son, that we might be with Him. We are now viewed blameless because of what Christ has done for us. The Ephesian's pre-christian life style was completely ruled by immorality. They needed to hear this very fact, that there was no need for shame or guilt, because Christ stood between us and what we actually deserve.
How often do we feel unworthy or unclean? Verse 4 tells us God had, from the beginning, planned to see us without fault in His eyes! So when God looks at us, He sees His son. Jesus lives with in us and takes away any fault, any flaw, any thing that would keep us from the blessings of heaven. He no longer sees what we were but what the blood of Christ has made us!
