Ephesians: Life Together In Christ | The Security of Grace (1:7-14)
Eph. 1:7-14 // John 14:2-3
The final salvation of all those who are ‘in Christ’ has been settled in advance…
We have been:
- Purchased by His blood
(Acts 20:28 // Heb. 9:11-12 // 1 Cor. 6:20 // Rom. 8:32 // Isa. 53:5, 10, 12)
- Assured by His supremacy
(1 Cor. 15:20-27 // Rom. 5:1-2 // Ps. 46:10)
&
- Guarded by His Spirit
(Phil. 1:6 // 1 Thess. 5:23-24)
“The assurance of the believer is not that God will save him even if he stops believing, but that God will keep him believing – God will sustain you in faith, He will make your hope firm and stable to the end. He will cause you to persevere.” — John Piper
