Eph 1:18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. 22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

            After demonstrating that believers have all spiritual blessings (1:3–14), Paul prayed that believers would come to know God intimately (v. 17) in order that they might know three facts: (1) the past call of salvation that produced the hope of heaven (v. 18), (2) the future inheritance that God has in His saints (v. 18), and (3) the present power of God that is available to believers, which (a) was manifested in the past in Christ’s resurrection and Ascension, (b) will be manifested in the future in Christ’s headship over Creation, and (c) is presently manifested in Christ’s headship over the church.

          Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

             John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today. 

              “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”  -John 8:32

          And Alexander the Great finally stopped him and said, I've heard about the way you've been acting. You either change your name or you act like you ought to. Because you're not going to act like that with my name. That's what he told him. And that's what God says is we need to act like him. So having died with Christ we may live like him now.

Eph 1:15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, 16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened;

The Christian Life has 2 dimensions:

Faith towards God -Trust

Love towards Men - Obey

Mark 12:30 Love the Lord your God and your neighbor

Paul knew these two things were the just the tip of the iceberg

Notice Paul’s prayer, same as in all the prison epistles.

It is not for health, wealth, or material things

He prays for spiritual perception and real Christian character.

Prays first of all for spiritual wisdom and revelation

The Holy Spirit is the one who reveals all spiritual wisdom

But you cannot hear from the Holy Spirit if you have not opened your heart to hear

Mt 13:13 Jesus said Seeing they see not and hearing they hear not

Second, He prays they may know God, not only as Savior, but as Father friend and guide

Psalms 63:1 O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water.

Isaiah 26:9 With my soul I have desired You in the night, Yes, by my spirit within me I will seek You early; For when Your judgments are in the earth, The inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

             John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today.

When we trust Christ, the moment Christ comes to live inside of us, we are new and improved. We're really new and improved because Christ has come to live inside of us, right? So we've already talked about that in 2 Corinthians 5, 17, that we're a what? A new creation. Galatians 6.15 says for Christ Jesus neither circumcision or uncircumcision avails anything but a new creation. Ezekiel 36 talks about a new heart. Ezekiel 18 talks about a new spirit. Psalm 40 says he's put a new song in our mouth. Revelation 2.17 says I will give him a white stone and on that stone a new name which no one knows except him who receives it. In Ephesians 4.24 it says that you put on the new man which was created according to God in true righteousness and holiness. So basically we've got a new heart. We're a new creation. We have a new song. We've got a new name. And we're a new man. We're a new person. So that is what God has done for us.

The whole section from verse 1-14 tells us everything He does is to the praise of His glory.  We see in this section today how to be saved.  You hear, you trust in the Gospel and having believed you are sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day He comes back to get us.  There are 5 great things that come with being Sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.  The sealing work of the Spirit is mentioned 2 other places in the Scripture, 2Corinthians 1:22 and Ephesians 4:30

1.    A seal on a legal document means it is a finished contract or transaction

You know what the seal means? We are not in the process of getting saved. When you put your faith in Jesus Christ God gave you the Holy Spirit and said - That is a finished transaction.

2.    It means security and protection.. We are secure in Christ - Hebrews 6:19 

3.  Authenticity… It’ real, we are a genuine child of God - Ro 8:9

When God gives us His Holy Spirit He is saying this is an authentic child of the King. The only authentic Christian is the one who possesses the Holy Spirit, who’s sealed with a mark of authenticity.  

4. Ownership…He owns us - 1Co 6:19-20

5.  Authority and power - Read the the eighth chapter of Esther. Esther wanted the king to settle a certain issue. So she said, Okay, you make the edict, king, and you sign it with your seal and we'll carry it out. And so they're walking around with this letter from the king. And it's a sign of authority. Esther 3:8-15, 

We have His authority and power in our lives over sin, suffering, and temptation.  The Authority to preach the Gospel and go in His name since He has sent us Mt. 28:20 

In essence, the “deposit” of the Holy Spirit is a little bit of heaven in believers’ lives with a guarantee of much more yet to come.

Who is The guarantee of our inheritance – The Holy Spirit – This means He will never leave us or forsake us Hebrews 13:5

Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

             John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today.

At that moment when you say God forgive me and save me based on those things. At that point the Bible says that God forgives you and saves you. And at that moment He comes to live inside of you. That is what we call the baptism of the Spirit.

Eph 1:8 which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, 9 having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, 10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth--in Him. 11 In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,

    God has made his forgiveness abound to us because of His wisdom & foresight. He gives us knowledge of His mysteries, the things which were hidden in the Old Testament, such as in this case the Jew & Gentile becoming one in the church. He did this so he could reconcile everything back to himself as it was in the beginning of time. The Bible is the story of man being created, falling & God working throughout time to restore us to Him in the end. This does not suggest that everyone will be saved; instead, sin’s disorder will be removed & universal peace will be established (Isa. 2:2–4; 11:1–10). We also see that everything that God has will ultimately belong to us too because we are joint heirs with Jesus Christ.

Think about Lazarus. Lazarus was dead. Jesus basically propels him out of the grave because I think he was wrapped like a mummy, you know, like they wrapped him. So he couldn't have really, he'd have been doing like this trying to get out of the grave, right? Trying to hop to get out of the grave. He couldn't have done that, but God propels him out of the grave. And when he comes out, what did he say? Loose him and let him go. Now think about Lazarus. He's been in the grave four days. You can imagine the heat out here today. It's going to be out there today. It's even hotter, I think, in Israel. Alright, four days worth of being in a grave. No embalming, no anything. I mean, you ride by a little old squirrel or a raccoon or something on the side of the road and you got your windows open or your vents open and it about knocks you down. You can imagine four days of a person. He says, take these old dirty, stinky grave clothes off of him. And he says, loose him and let him go. And when he says loose him and let him go, it's a picture of us being a slave to sin. We're dead. And when Jesus propels us out of the grave and we trust him, all of a sudden he lets us loose and we take off all those dirty, stinky sins that are a stench in the nostrils of a holy God. is what it's a picture of. That's what that's a picture of.

Eph 1:7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace

         The first great act of redemption in the Old Testament is the exodus, the deliverance of the nation Israel from her bondage in Egypt. Redemption is an act of God by which He Himself pays as a ransom the price for sin which has outraged His holiness. It means to pay a price to free somebody from bondage. Every person in the world is a slave in their sinful state. No man is free. And to whom are they slaves? Who is the captor? John 8:34 says, "Men are slaves to sin." Romans 6:17 says, "Men are servants to sin." Romans 7:14; "Sold under sin." Romans 8:21; "In bondage to corruption." What is the captor of men? Sin. Sin demands a price to be paid to release its victim. The price or the wage of sin is death. So in order to purchase sinners from the grasp of sin there must be death. Hebrews 9:22 The soul that sinneth, the Old Testament says, it shall die. All right, the wages or the price of sin is death. Jesus paid the price to set us free. We have been set free from the law - Galatians chapter 5:1 Set free from slavery to sin Rom 6:6 Set free from the power of Satan and the world Gal 1:4 

Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

             John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today.

And you know what we do so many times? We live in between them. You remember what the Israelites did when they left Egypt? They wanted to go back to Egypt instead of going to the promised land. Because the promised land, remember, it's work to trust Christ. It's hard to trust Him every day to put the sin away and live for God in a sense. But you know what? It's easier to do that because God gives you the power if you would trust in Him. than it is to go back and live in Egypt and live the old way. Because the old way always causes so many problems in our life, right?

Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?
