God’s Electing Love
Introduction:
Question: How can I find peace in a broken world?
1. Paul’s letter to the Ephesians (v1-2).
2. He has blessed us! (v3)
3. Part 1: Blessed by God the Father (v4-6).
• Chosen … (v4)
• Predestined and adopted … (v5)
• To the praise of His glorious grace … in Christ (v6).
Conclusion:
Ephesians speaks to battle-weary Christians who are living in a battle-weary world. It upholds this fundamental truth: that you will never find peace apart from Christ. Only in Jesus, is there lasting peace. And God’s peace begins with his gracious choice: God’s electing love is the source of all our peace – in Christ!
