Eph2

You were born dead! Do you have new life in Christ yet?

This chapter rocks the world of anyone who considers themselves "ok" before God apart from faith in Jesus. In fact, it calls all people "by nature children under God's wrath." Not children of God, but rather, children of Satan. Most don't think of themselves like this.

I love the beginning of vs. 4…BUT GOD! RICH IN MERCY AND BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE, MADE US ALIVE THROUGH CHRIST. We were pathetic and helpless. We were miserable and lost. We were hopeless, without a savior, without hope, without a promise, foreigners and strangers. We had nothing of eternal value! Now we have everything in Christ.

What a chapter! What a promise.
