Ephesians 1:7-8 - Redemption Through Christ's BloodThis passage from Ephesians focuses on redemption through Jesus's blood and the forgiveness of sins, highlighting God's abundant grace. Paul emphasizes that believers are chosen, redeemed, and adopted as sons through Jesus. Redemption, a present possession secured by God, is a gift made possible by Jesus's sacrifice, echoing the Old Testament Passover. Unlike being "bought and paid for" by worldly interests, Christians are purchased by God for good, leading to allegiance to Jesus. This redemption brings forgiveness, removing sin as far as the east is from the west. God's grace, undeserved and limitless, is lavished upon believers, offering wisdom, prudence, and understanding through Christ. True faith motivates love for God and neighbor, demonstrated through actions. Believers are called to live lives of service, rooted in God's Word, building their lives on the solid foundation of Jesus Christ.#ephesians #redemption #forgiveness #grace #jesus #theology #biblestudy #christianity #faith #salvation www.ReformedRookie.comPodcast: https://anchor.fm/reformedrookieFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheReformedRookie Twitter: https://twitter.com/NYapologistSemper Reformanda!

Last week I spoke in error at one point in my message to you… As I shared with you that our BELIEFS CREATE BEHAVIOR I pointed to the scriptures and said, “ at least they should. ” The truth is that OUR BEHAVIOR will reveal and reflect what we truly believe… not what we merely give lip service to.

The Incomparable Christ Pt. 1: Our Standing In Christ By Louie Marsh, 1-11-2026 1) Who & what I AM. "1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints who are IN EPHESUS, and are faithful IN CHRIST JESUS: 2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 1 1-2, ESV)   Intro.  Verses 3 - 14 have been called a Hymn of Grace.  They are a statement of our spiritual blessings in Christ.  These verses are one long, complex sentence in the Greek. According to Purdue University: Run-ons, comma splices, and fused sentences are all names given to compound sentences that are not punctuated correctly.   You can divide these verses into three parts.  1) The Father, 2) the Son, 3) the Spirit.  They are also mainly concerned with 1)the past, 2) the present, 3) the future.  These three sections are marked off by the repeated phrase "Praise of His Glory," or "glorious grace."  See verses 3, 12, 14.   This Passage is About   The Father -  The Past The Son – the Present The Spirit – The Future Created Loved Sealed Predestined Redeemed Guaranteed Blessed Blessed Blessed   Paul begins his letter by looking at what each member of the Trinity has done for those who have become followers of Christ.   2) I am BLESSED beyond measure.    3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us IN CHRIST with every spiritual blessing IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES, 6to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.  (Ephesians 1 3-6, ESV)   Bless = eulogy.  The word literally means "to speak well of"   It's in the aorist tense, which refers to something done at a particular point in time, with effects still being felt now.  Example - rock in pond, ripples.   We bless God because He first blessed us   "19We love because he first loved us." (1 John 4:19, ESV)   God's word equals action. He created the universe by speaking so if God says you're blessed - you're blessed!   In the Heavenlies this phrase used 5 times in Ephesians and nowhere else by Paul. Paul is saying that these blessing of the Father reside in the unseen world of spiritual reality.  They are real - even though they can't always be seen.   Every Spiritual Blessing! Aorist Tense again. This is important, you have ALREADY BEEN GIVEN THIS! Freely Given. You don't have to do anything to earn this - works, praying through, study, etc. All These blessings are gifts of the Father's GRACE!!   3) God the Father CHOSE me before He created the universe.   4even as he chose us IN HIM before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. IN LOVE 5he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, Ephesians 1:4-5 (ESV)   A Misunderstood Bible Truth. Entire Denominations have split over this issue of Predestination.  Obviously we don't have time today to go into it fully. This is my understanding of it in a nutshell.   God chose us. This word used in LXX of God's choice of Israel, implies taking a smaller number out of a larger group.  Written in aorist tense.   This choice is called Predestination. It's actually 2 words and literally means -  "Before the Horizon" & It was used of making a blueprint.   Add to this the word "before" in verse 4 which means "to see down into"   Then read I Peter 1: 1-2 and you arrive at what I believe is the Biblical doctrine of Predestination.   "1Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who are elect exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, 2according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in the sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood: May grace and peace be multiplied to you." (1 Peter 1:1–2, ESV)   "God knowing everything – even what we call the future (also called foreknowledge) based on that knowledge he chooses (predestines) those who respond to His Grace in Jesus Christ."   Our problem with this is we are time bound people used to dealing with things in a certain order, God isn't and doesn't.   4) To prove that GOD'S WAY is superior to Satan's or the world's way.   6to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.  (Ephesians 1:6, ESV)   Introduce Lindy Beige and show video – the world and the devil always rely on force. God doesn't.   5) Forgiveness is found ONLY in Christ.    7IN HIM we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, 8which he lavished upon us, IN ALL WISDOM AND INSIGHT 9making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth IN CHRIST 10as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things IN HIM, things in heaven and things on earth.  (Ephesians 1:7–10, ESV)   · The grace of God in Christ is rich · It is LAVISHED upon us. · God does this wisely with insight · To show that only IN CHRIST will everyone & everything come together.   6) I am SEALED in Christ by the Holy Spirit.    11In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, 12so that we who were the first to hope IN CHRIST might be to the praise of his glory. 13IN HIM you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed IN HIM, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, 14who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory." (Ephesians 1:11–14, ESV)   · God CHOSE me – that's amazing. · I'm part of God working all things according to His will. · The Spirit seals me · He (Spirit) guarantee's our inheritance (all those spiritual blessings referred to above) until the time we can receive & live in them. · All of this results in the praise of God's glory.

Popular streamer Kai Cenat, 24, devastated fans on December 27, 2025, by declaring on X, "I'm single I will never be in another relationship again," ending his year-long romance with 21-year-old influencer Gabrielle "Gigi" Alayah – the Atlanta-raised lifestyle content creator (born in Louisiana) and CEO of her own loungewear brand Saintnine, whom he once hailed as his "dream girl" for giving him a profound sense of purpose and peace beyond family. The couple went public dramatically during Kai's 23rd birthday livestream in December 2024, where he gushed about glowing more and feeling truly happy for the first time.However, Gigi later explained the split, stating that despite Kai's generous gifts and promises ("I'll buy you this, I'll buy you that"), she craved emotional presence and someone "actually there for me," revealing money wasn't enough. Amid the fallout, unverified online rumors exploded claiming Gigi cheated (including baseless links to NBA YoungBoy), which she vehemently denied on Instagram, insisting she initiated the breakup and accusing others of pushing false narratives. Gabrielle "Gigi" Alayah, born January 21, 2004, in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and raised primarily in Atlanta, Georgia, is a 21-year-old independent lifestyle influencer and entrepreneur who built her career without a college degree. Starting on TikTok in late 2020 with dance, lip-sync, and motivational content aimed at empowering young women, she quickly grew a massive following—nearing 1 million on TikTok, over 350,000 on Instagram, and substantial YouTube subscribers—through relatable vlogs, fashion hauls, travel glimpses, and "day in the life" videos that highlight self-made success, like buying her own condo at 20. In February 2023, she launched Saintnine, her loungewear brand "for the girlz," showcasing her business acumen and focus on female independence, with an estimated net worth between $250,000 and $800,000 from sponsorships, ad revenue, and her ventures. Known for her multi-racial heritage, Christian upbringing, and close bond with her mother Ashlee Monroe, Gigi has often emphasized emotional authenticity and boundaries in her content, positioning herself as a role model for young women navigating life on their own terms.This heartbreak from his proclaimed "dream girl" has left Kai deeply disillusioned, underscoring that no amount of spoiling can secure true loyalty or connection under the relentless spotlight.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/depraved-and-debaucherous--5267208/support.Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on X and TikTok @kingofpodcasts (F Meta!)Listen to KOP's other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and The Broadcasters Podcast.Buy KOP a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=3TAB983ZQPNVLDrop KOP a Venmo https://account.venmo.com/u/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a CashApp https://cash.app/$kingofallpodcasts

Evangelist Ernie Salinas sharing a message with the Grace congregation about God's Amazing Love. 

Rejection & Acceptance Jesus Understands Isaiah 53:2-3 There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. He was despised and rejected - a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. John 1:10-11 He came into the very world he created, but the world didn't recognize him. He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. Luke 13:34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God's messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her ckicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn't let me. Shake It Off Luke 9:1-5 One day Jesus called together his twelve disciples and gave them power and authority to cast out all demons and to heal all diseases. Then he sent them out to tell everyone about the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick. Take nothing for your journey, he instructed them. Dont take a walking stick, a travelers bag, food, money, or even a change of clothes. Wherever you go, stay in the same house until you leave town. And if a town refuses to welcome you, shake its dust from your feet as you leave to show that you have abandoned those people to their fate. Strategically Respond Matthew 7:6 Don't waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don't throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you. Know Who Loves You Mark 1:9-11 One day Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee, and John baptized him in the Jordan River. As Jesus came up out of the water, he saw the heavens splitting apart and the Holy Spirit descending on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, "You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy." Matthew 17:5 But even as he spoke, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy. Listen to him." John 12:27-28 Now my soul is deeply troubled. Should I pray, "Father, save me from this hour?" But this is the very reason I came! Father, bring glory to your name. Then a voice spoke from heaven, saying, "I have already brought glory to my name, and I will do so again." John 1:10-13 He came into the very world he created, but the world didnt recognize him. He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are rebornnot with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God. We are Righteous - 2 Corinthians 5:21 We are New Creations - 2 Corinthians 3:17 We are Holy and Blameless - Ephesians 1:4 We are God's Masterpiece - Ephesians 2:10 We are Friends of God - James 2:23 We are Beloved and Chosen - Colossians 3:12 We are Royal and God's Most Prized Possession - 1 Peter 2:9 We are Lavished in God's Love - Ephesians 1:11

November 5, 2023 -- "Lavished!" -- Pastor Kevin Kritzer; Bible Text: 1 John 3:1-3 (3) Consider this: The Father has given us his love. He loves us so much that we are actually called God's dear children. And that's what we are. For this reason the world doesn't recognize us, and it didn't recognize him either. 2 Dear friends, now we are God's children. What we will be isn't completely clear yet. We do know that when Christ appears we will be like him because we will see him as he is. 3 So all people who have this confidence in Christ keep themselves pure, as Christ is pure. --GW http://www.bethanylutheran.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.facebook.com/Bethany.Long.Beach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/c/BethanyLutheranLongBeach

Join Audrey and John as they delve into one of the most uplifting and inspiring passages of the Bible: Ephesians 1. In this episode, they read through this powerful chapter, which speaks of how God has lavished His love and superabundant grace on us, and how His love cascades over us.. As they read, Audrey and John highlight the significance of the multifaceted treasures of redemption that God has given us, and how this highlights the incredible depth of His love for us. As they explore this passage, Audrey and John also discuss the contrast between God and Smog, and how God is unlike Smog, who jealously guards his treasure and doesn't allow anyone to touch it but God longs for us to come to Him and experience His treasures of redeeming love and grace for ourselves. This episode is a beautiful reminder of just how much God loves us and the lengths to which He has gone to redeem us. So, relax and let the love of God wash over you like a paradise waterfall.Music for this episode:I have written permission from both artists.Intro music is "I will follow" by Eikon Outro music is "No Sweeter Love: by Allie PaigeConnect with Audrey and the Eat Me Drink Me community Website: www.eatmedrinkmepodcast.netTiktok: click here Discord: https://discord.gg/JkRCXDS3Cg Youtube: Click here Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/646324359742601/ Email: eatmedrinkmepod@gmail.comDonate to help support Audrey's work on the Podcast Paypal: www.paypal.com/paypalme/emdmpodcast Become a Patreon: www.patreon.com/emdmpodcast Venmo: @JohnAudreyDuttonCashapp:$JandADutton Buy Me a Coffee: www.buymeacoffee.com/eatmedrinkmeSupport the show
