In this lesson Bill Morris reviews some additional content from Ephesians 1:
Considering our mind, will and emotions in the context of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (check out the chart used in this post on Galatians 5). "At salvation we get all of God that we're gonna get but how much will He get of us?"
An overview of what we've learned so far in Ephesians through verse 14.
New content beginning with verse 15
Below is the outline of verses 1-14:
Ephesians
Chapter 1
The
Blessings of Redemption
Paul speaks with authority and holds
this office “by the will of God”
The Church is a society of the
“Saints” and “faithful in Christ Jesus”
Divine blessings of Grace and Peace
Father
The blessing of redemption, God is
the giver of these blessings
The medium through which blessings
come—Christ
The blessings are in harmony with
eternal purpose
The election of grace, which is the
foundation of all spiritual blessings
The election is from eternity
Adoption originates in the free
grace of God
Adoption is in connection with the
person of Christ
Adoption is to bring believers into
communion with God Himself
Son
Redemption is “in Christ”
The procuring cause of redemption is
the blood of Christ
Redemption in the first and
characteristic blessing is the forgiveness of sins
Redemption has its measure in the
Divine grace
Revelation of the mystery—part
concealed and part revealed
Unification is to be in Christ—in
the fullness of time
Obtained and Inheritance “after
the counsel of His will”
Spirit
The Jewish and Gentile Christians
have in common—the seal of the Holy Spirit
A common guarantee of inheritance,
extends until of redemption
The guarantee consists—the “down
payment” of the Spirit
The common doxology “Unto the
praise of His glory”
