Knowing your family history is not always a good thing. While those related to presidents, celebrities, and philanthropists will brag about their DNA connection, it is a different story when the genealogy is filled with criminals and reprobates; these details are often left unspoken. As Paul wrote to the Ephesians, he told the Gentiles about their family history, and it was nothing to bring pride. However, against this dark backdrop, he told them what they had now found in Jesus Christ. This sermon will examine this rich teaching and remind present-day Gentiles of their background and that the same blessings are available for any who come to Jesus Christ.
