Ephesians 2

Made Alive With Christ

In this Chapter it talks about us being once dead because we used to live in this unworldly place  of sin.God being mercyful and graceful gave his son to redeem us!  Also known as salvation.
Because of this, we cannot take credit for it like say

" eh haha when u die I'm  going to heaven  and you hell! Too bad if you don't  wana know Christ,your business!

NO! Because  in Ephesians 2:11 " don't  forget that you gentiles used to be outsiders.You were called uncircumcised heathens (a person who do not belong to a widely held religion) by the Jews  ,who were proud of their circumcision, even though it affected their bodies  and not their hearts"
This tells us to go out and make disciples of all nations and not be selfish because we are suppose to strive and be like Jesus! He didnt consider  selecting  a few to save when he died for us right?:)


Ephesian 2:14 "for Christ himself has brought peace to us. He united Jew  and Gentiles into one people when, in his own body on the cross,He broke down the wall of hostility that separated us."


Lord I thank you for even revealing  you love and sacrifices to me!  Thank you  loving father for speaking to me as I have asked.Lord you have showed me what it really means to study your word and build this relationship
 Lord. I Thank you for this brothers and sisters as well father for I would have still procrastinated.Father I ask for your forgiveness on this and I pray for more wisdom to be put forth from you  o Lord!  In Jesus most precious name I pray,Amen!


Jacob.
