"How should we understand the language of election and predestination in Ephesians 1 and what was Paul's purpose in emphasizing it to the Ephesian believers? How does Ephesians 2:8-10 balance God's work and our good works, and why is that balance so central to Paul's message? In today's episode, Director of Equipping, Chris Sherrod, and Watermark member Robin Clark talk about Ephesians 1-4. Robin provides us with the context of the book of Ephesians and tackles the language around predestination, helping us understand the different positions on this theological topic.

(This podcast was previously published on January 15, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Remember when you were born again? All of a sudden, God by HIS Spirit opened our eyes to see our sin and we believed and were saved by faith in HIM. We didn't do works to earn salvation. It was a gift to us. After that, we read the Bible and believed the Word and were changed into the image of Jesus, The Word, as we believed. II Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. Being born again is all about change. The old man is passed away. All things become new. We are different now! And the remainder of our life on this earth we are conformed to the image of Christ the Word as we encounter issues of this life and settle those issues by learning what God wants us to do about each thing that comes to us. The apostle Paul says: Galatians 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. Now we, too, are servants of God as is the apostle Paul. And we seek to please God in our decisions by prayer, asking God what HE wants us to do, and by following that brought to our minds by God's Spirit, The Holy Spirit. Our life becomes hidden to this world but we become alive to God and our lives are hidden in Christ as we follow the Word of God, conforming ourselves to HIS Word. And we know this is all that matters.

When we hear that people are praying for us and have such a passion and zeal for the church, it encourages us. As Paul thinks of the church in Ephesus, he is filled with thankfulness - and Paul is only man! When Jesus thinks of us, we can only imagine the extent to which he knows us. We already have so much to be thankful for and yet God is still working on our behalf to help us know Him more and see each other with His eyes.

God's mighty resurrection power is available to us and working within us. This is a major them in Ephesians. Discover how the Holy Spirit provides revelation and wisdom to help us lay hold of and walk in God's power within us, the same power that raised Christ from the dead and is now active in our lives. God's mighty power is in us, through the Holy Spirit, and it is available to us, but we need to have a revelation of this power, so that we can draw upon it by faith, as well as the wisdom to walk in that power, for it is released through our obedience. Ephesians 1 gives us a revelation of this mighty power, by describing what it has already accomplished when it was released in Christ, when He was (1) made alive from the dead, (2) raised far above all powers, and (3) enthroned on high. Then Ephesians 2 describes what this resurrection power accomplished in our spirits when we were born again in Christ: (1) Our spirit was made alive with Christ, changing us from spiritual death to being spiritually alive to God. (2) Our spirit was raised far above all opposing powers (sin, satan and the world), for His victory was imparted to our spirit. (3) Our spirit was seated with Christ far above, having been empowered to reign with Christ. This same power is available to us in our life today! (Ephesians 3:20).

"Consecrated Unto Thee"Ephesians 1:3-6 How blessed is God! And what a blessing he is! He's the Father of our Master, Jesus Christ, and takes us to the high places of blessing in him. Long before he laid down earth's foundations, he had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of his love, to be made whole and holy by his love. Long, long ago he decided to adopt us into his family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure he took in planning this!) He wanted us to enter into the celebration of his lavish gift-giving by the hand of his beloved Son.
