Passage: Ephesians 1:7-10
As we continue moving through this opening portion of the book of Ephesians, one long and glorious sentence setting forth the riches of our blessings in Christ, we cannot help but be struck by Paul’s Trinitarian framework; each person of the Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, working in unison to plan, accomplish, and apply the work of salvation to our lives. This morning, we look specifically at the work of the Son, who took our place and ransomed us from bondage to sin and death, all as a part of God’s eternal plan to renew and restore a creation torn apart by the ravages of sin.
