Ephesians Part 38 (Standing and State)

INTRO: What a wonderful book Ephesians is! When I was a Prairie Bible Institute, my boss, Erik Bjorn, did a correspondence course on this book. And on the cover he had a picture of a treasure chest with all kinds of treasures. That picture of Ephesians is most appropriate. Almost every verse is a gem or a jewel. So the series of messages I did on chapter one has a treasure chest with jewels and gems. This second chapter is no different, though the gems and jewels are different. And in our verses tonight, when we have dug enough, we will find some more great gems of truth. The digging will be a bit tough though, so you must put on your thinking caps.
