Ephesians 2:8-22, Dead, Alive, Together – Part 2

Ephesians 2, Dead, Alive, Together Part 2   In Dead, Alive, Together – Part Two, Pastor David Menard unpacks the incredible identity believers have in Jesus Christ. Through Ephesians 2:8–22, we discover that apart from God’s saving grace, we are without hope and separated from His family. Paul encourages fathers in their profound calling to raise the next generation in the truth of God’s Word and the hope found in Christ. But through faith in Christ, we are reconciled to God, forgiven of our sins, and brought into a relationship of peace with Him.   This message highlights the beauty of God’s Kingdom, where all who place their trust in Jesus are welcomed as citizens of the Kingdom and children of God. Because of our inheritance in Christ, we have direct access to the Father and are a holy temple—a dwelling place for God’s presence.
