New Hope Christian Church - Whitestown

Ephesians 1:3-7 - Psalm 115:3 says that God is in heaven, and He does whatever pleases Him. So the question is, what has God chosen to do? In Ephesians 1 Paul begins his letter by explaining that in His sovereignty God has chosen to predestine us for adoption. In today's message we explore what that means for the church and for individual followers of Jesus.

Ephesians 1:1-2 - Paul begins his letter to the Ephesian church with a reminder for his readers. He wants them to remember who they are in Christ before he explains to them how to live in response to this truth.

Revelation 2:1-7 - Before we begin our study of Ephesians we look at the important warning that Jesus had for this church to remember their first love.
