Grace and Peace To You

Ephesians is beautifully dressed in salvation-doctrine and practical truth. The first two verses were written as the pattern of the day. They are a foreword or prologue. It identifies the writer, the recipients and records a brief prayer. Paul's salvation, calling and work was the outcome of "the will of God". Who he was and what he had to say was due to God's will. We will see, salvation itself is limited by and resulted from God's will.
