Ephesians 1:6-7
Excerpted from: The Awesome Cost of Salvation

This shows that what He is doing had nothing to do with the way we are. It had everything to do with His initiating and choosing us because He wanted us, not because of anything that we have done.

The word 'forgiveness' means, "to be loosened from some bondage." It is actually taken from the picture of somebody who is tied up by cords or ropes. Have we been loosened from a political unit called Egypt? No. From another human being? No. From sin. That is what has held us in bondage—sin. It is interesting that the word that is translated 'sins' is paraptoma and it indicates deviations from the right path. We have been held by bondage from deviations from the right path.

All this was done according to His grace. . .

Ephesians 1:3-6
Excerpted from: Be Holy, as I am Holy

You know, from Adam, to Noah, to Abraham, to Moses, to us today, God was preparing all this before the foundations of the world. He was working. God chose you long before you were even born.

Ephesians 1:3-12
Excerpted from: Jesus in the Feasts (Part Five): Tabernacles

That is what He is working toward, making us all one in Christ and that we could all be glorified in Him, as part of Him.
