"Salvation is of the LORD." -Jonah 2:9

     Surely none of us can read the first chapter of Ephesians without seeing that the Holy Spirit constantly holds before us the glorious fact that the saints of God are eternally safe because we are  “in Christ.”   1.  We were blessed  “with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ,”  verse 3.  I take that word  “all”  to mean exactly what it says.  How ever many spiritual blessings there are, they were  “all”  bestowed upon us  “in Christ”  before the world began.   2.  We were chosen  “in Him”  to be  “holy and without blame”  before the heaven and earth was ever formed, verse 4.  The Father, in covenant grace, appointed us  “to obtain salvation”  in His Son (I Thessalonians 5:9) .  Christ is the Father’s elect Servant (Isaiah 42:1) and we were chosen  “in Him.”   3.  We were predestinated to be God’s children through or...
