Discover Who You Are
Are you ready to live to the max in 2020? You can, when you know who you are.
Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians reveals our true identity by reporting how God longs to adopt people into His family — even though we may feel like orphans in the universe.
- Ephesians 1 is the Preamble of Our Adoption Papers, informing us about the Father’s kindness to us and all we inherit as His children.
- Ephesians 2 explains what God adopts us FROM and what He adopts us TO. Then we meet our brothers and sisters, and we tour our house.
- Ephesians 3 tells us about our family business, and we learn how to converse with our Heavenly Father about the part we play in it.
- Ephesians 4 explains how to maintain family unity and how Jesus Christ, our big brother, equips us to grow up to be like Him.
- Ephesians 5 prepares us and our siblings for the challenges of adulthood, so that we can mature, remain united, and prosper.
- Ephesians 6 trains us to defend the family business from attack, so that more orphans may discover God longs to adopt them too.
