AUGUST 23 READING…EPHESIANS 2
Paul shares so much good news in this chapter. We who were dead in our trespasses and sins, He has made us alive in Jesus. We have a God who is rich in mercy, and great in love. We were raised up by the power of God that raised Jesus from the dead. We are saved only by the grace of God through the faith He has given us. Grace means unearned…we did not earn our salvation, it is a gift from God. For any gift to be ours we must receive it…there is no credit given to us for receiving a free gift…all credit and glory goes to the giver—God. We are given this gift that we might be able to continue to do the works God has called us to. Christ not only gives us peace…Christ is our peace. He is this because He is our Cornerstone…everything we are or ever will be is because everything is built upon Jesus, our perfect Cornerstone.
Please share your thoughts.
