In our study today we do a little bit of review clarifying the offer of the kingdom and why it could not have been made available until after the death and resurrection of Christ, and why it is important to rightly divide even the Paulene Epistles.

In today's study we review a bit and then look at verses 10-13 where we see Paul talking about the fullness of times when Christ will bring all things together in him, inheritance and predestination again, that it was the nation who first trusted, and that the word of truth must be spoken to be received.

In today's study we introduce the book by carefully taking a look at when and where it was written, establish who the audience was, discuss the issues of predestination and adoption, and God's wisdom and prudence.

In today's study, we cover verses 5-9 where we see that we need to be careful to not force our modern day definition of a word on Scripture making it say something that it does not. Also, we see that everything that God does is according to his wisdom and prudence.

In today's study we look at verse 4-5 where we see Paul establishing that God has chosen Israel before the foundation of the world and that they are predestined to the adoption according to the good pleasure of his will. These verses are often times misinterpreted when they applied to the Body of Christ.

Today we continue our study through the book of Ephesians by looking at verses 1-3 and establishing who the audience is that Paul is writing to.

In today's study we introduce the book of Ephesians. To do that, we look at when it was written, from where it was written, and by whom it was delivered.

I am currently working on a verse-by-verse study through the book of Ephesians that we will begin shortly. Here are some of my initial thoughts.

Many teach today that upon salvation, we the church (Body of Christ) become part of spiritual Israel. My third point is that for them to do this, they must ignore the teaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery to Paul.

Many teach today that upon salvation, we the church (Body of Christ) become part of spiritual Israel. My second point is that for them to do this, they must reject the significance of God's separation of Israel from the Gentiles.
