Good to Know

Reviewing Ephesians 1:16-2:3 Art Morris notes that one of the great desires of Paul for his people is that they really know some things. Jesus, of course, said in John 8 that "the truth will set you free". There are some liberating truths Paul wants us to embrace:

• Because we've been called, we can have hope (God will finish what He started)
• Because we have been promised an inheritance we can begin to lay claim to it by faith
• Because of the power of the resurrection we can know that God can be powerful in our lives today -- He is FOR us!

In case they (we) didn't get it, Paul goes on in Chapter two reminding us of who we were before Christ and then drives home the point: You Aren't that Person Anymore!

This is the knowledge that sets us free!
