Ephesians 2:4-7

This is an incredible passage of scripture to me.

"But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus."

I don't want to give you much commentary other than that this truly speaks of our amazing privilege of being placed in Christ by the mercy and grace of God. I then want to point you to what Paul says in Ephesians 4:1...

"Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called..."

He's done incredible things for you...live correspondingly to your high position...

With privilege comes responsibility...then blessing, after blessing, after blessing...and we will continue in that privilege and blessing of seeing His kindness towards us put on display throughout eternity.

God's grace and kindness should change how we live now...
