Ephesians 2:19 "So then, you are no longer strangers and aliens, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God..."

The premise I didn't have time to get to--Illegal Aliens in the kingdom of God. We are continuing our look at "access."

John 10:9 "I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and will find pasture." Luke 13:24 "Strive to enter through the narrow gate, because many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able."

A little more on access (Eph 2:18, Romans 5:1-2) Ephesians 2:18 "Because through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father." Romans 5:1-2 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

Verse by verse Bible study in the Book of Ephesians.  

"For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh--who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made by hands in the flesh-- that at that time you were apart from Christ, being estranged from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, not having hope and atheists in the world. But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were far away have come to be near by the blood of Christ."  

"God has given them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, down to this very day." (Rom 11:8) What is a (the) spirit of stupor? Is it contagious??

"Here is wisdom: Let him that has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man--his number is 666." (Rev 13:18)

"For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God." In this 15 minute study, we look at this phrase, AND THAT not of yourselves. The Bible teaches that even the faith is not our own, but a gift of God.  

"For by grace you have been saved, through faith, and THAT, not of yourselves." Part 1 of 2 looking into this text. What does "that" describe: Grace, or Faith? Enjoy!

God's great love for us, and our authority. Ephesians 2:4-6 "But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up together, and seated us together in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus..."

"And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins."

 Ephesians 2:1-4 "And you He made alive, who were dead in transgressions and sins, 2 in which you formerly walked according to the age of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience, 3 among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the senses, and were by nature children of wrath, as also the rest. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us..."

"And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins."

The power of the Blood of Christ.

Today we look at how Paul the Apostle prayed for other believers.

"In whom we have obtained an inheritance."

Today we look at this phrase "Fullness": Fullness of TIME (Gal 4:4) Fullness of GOD (Col 2:9) Fullness of PEOPLE (Rom 11:25) God bless! Pastor Paul

Today we look at the plan of God, and how He carried out that plan. Eph 1:9-10 having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, (10) for an administration of the fullness of the times, He might bring together all things in Christ, those in heaven and those on the earth--In Him.

"In whom we have redemption through His blood." (part 2)
