Ephesians 1 (Part1) :1-10 Our Spiritual Blessings in Christ

Yes, and amen 🙏

Thank you

Praise the Lord

Amen

I don't think you should have cropped out the rest of the new covenant there in Jeremiah. I think it is a disservice that so many Christians don't know that verse.

Powerful teaching

Praise Yahweh Praise Yahshua forever and ever!

My favorite place to be🙌🙌love these teachings I’m growing

This is a subject which drive me mad. Can you witness to someone who is not predestined and they step over the line to salvation. Jacob I loved, Esau I hated, Was Esau lost, did he step back into the camp of the loved?

I love and understand the book of Ephesians in a different way, blessed be the Lord Jesus.

When I struggle studying and understanding certain books of the Bible I turn towards your videos. As always, they delivery me to a better understanding. Thanks for the hard work you put in.

This is the only Chanel I watch for bible teachings. 🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️

Thank you Paul for sharing God’s Word which is. Thank you for helping impart Gods word is a richly and loving manner. You make the Word of God interesting and you get to dive into the word of God. May God continue to bless you and your ministry. 🙏 Amen

Thank you. I appreciate your teachings.🥰

Pastor paul i get this bible study today. I will start with part one now.

Pastor Paul, can you give me examples of spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. I am taught that by the stripes of Jesus we are healed that is physical healing could you explained to me what you mean when you said it is a spiritual healing not a physical healing please elaborate. Hope to hear from you.

learned so much, very encouraging, thank you.

Thank you for explaining Ephesians 1:3. Because of your explaining you helped me put another stop to prosperity teaching.
Thank you again, brother.

Great sermon, but I'm a little confused as you mention that isaiah 53 is only spiritual. but isaiah 53 is quoted in Mathew 8,16 as a physical healing?

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God,

To God’s holy people in Ephesus,[a] the faithful in Christ Jesus:

2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Praise for Spiritual Blessings in Christ
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he[b] predestined us for adoption to sonship[c] through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace 8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, 9 he[d] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.

11 In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.

Thanksgiving and Prayer
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

Amen. Thank you for the bible study

I love you my brother 🙏 💙

Wow. Glad I found you today. Most preachers leave me with a sense of underlying stress. But for the first time since I was a new Christian 37 yes ago , I have a sense of peace and joy and praise. It almost makes me wish I lived in communist Canada, so I could attend your congregation. My other hero in the faith is Mike winger also Calvert chapel. I wish I could find one here in Michigan.

Wow glory to my father my redeemer who gave me life and forever loves me.. grace abounds in your pst paul leboutillitor for sharing the anointing word....!!!!

Blessed

I am blessed and encouraged! Thank u Pr Paul

I Love to listen to this book of ephesian

Amen! Am blessed to know who I am in Christ through the book of ephesians.

Predestination,Gods ways are not our ways for who can understand the glory of god. For we know in part and see in part as we gaze in a dim mirror. Jesus said for you did not choose me I chose you. And that can be debated, though he did give choice in the fruit one should bare. He said bare fruit, fruit that will last. Jesus also said that Judas was doomed for destruction , John 17. This was to fulfill prophecy. So does god wish for none to perish? Our father said that his spirit will lead us to all truth, but that is with the call he puts in your life for his purpose. It not to know all, about all. For who even understands all the scriptures? Predestination is left to god. For he’s is all knowing to even the demons bow to his command. We try hard to teach and even argue about things we know little about. But his spirit leads those who seek him, and that obiediance our father loves, a child who walks in his fathers ways. May we worship him in spirit and by the truth in which the Holy Spirit gives. So may we work and worship may we serve and worship may we speak out of the abundance of our hearts in worship , may we sing in worship, may we dance in worship, may we humble ourselves in worship, and turn from the systems of man’s approval. Thank you for this message.

Good works were foreordained for those who choose God, those that take the step forward into His Kingdom. God made man with free will. We see this from Genesis onward. Two trees stood in the garden. Two options were available to man. They were given a degree of information about the consequences of eating from each trees. Man chose to eat from the tree of knowledge and rejected the Tree of Life. Man’s choice! The rest is history.

So awesome so rewarding so victory to be here.Thank you Jesus the love of my entire life ❤
Thank you Pastor Paul ❣🙏Hallelujah!❤ to our forever Faithful Loving soon coming Jesus Christ ❤
Yes, we are walking in the reality of who we are in Jesus Christ..
Love and Prayers to you Pastor Paul for being so faithful to be here teaching us the very will of God for our lives under the anointing of the HolySpirit of God Almighty 🙏❤

I came to the realization that sermons don't only come on Sundays because the Internet has them, this guy is the first person I found

Ephesians 1:14 brought me here

Feeling very blessed after listening to this !

The Catholic Church also uses the term "saint" more generally to mean anyone who has gone to heaven. Catholics don't worship saints, but ask them to pray for us as we would ask a friend or relative to.

Amen.

Closer closer walk with you.

We may sin and sometimes we don't know we are doing it and sometimes we sin and we know that we're doing it. But I want to ask forgiveness. And your mercy Lord. If I have send against you. Humble me.. forgive my trespasses.

People need to be shooken up they need to be awakened Lord. You can do all things through Christ that's strengthens you. God is watching over you no matter who you are no matter what .

Hi, Pastor Paul! If I am predestined because of the foreknowledge of God that I will choose Him, doesn't that give me a reason to boast? That I chose God and my choice to believe in the work of Jesus brought about my salvation? Doesn't then the basis of my salvation become my choice rather than Jesus? I chose Him rather than the other way around. Do you still hold this position about predestination pastor? Also what about the verse in Matthew 11:21? How if the mighty works done in Bethsaida and Chorazin had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented? Could you enlighten me some more because I am still confused at this point. Thank you so much!

Beautiful message, I am blessed and encouraged through God’s word. I thank God for your ministry. Thank you for answering the call. I pray that I will always have you apart of my prayers.

The fact that we have the privilege to be called the friend of God is by far a wonderful blessing. You opened my eyes to on of God’s full-gilled prophecy through His word because followers of Christ are no longer separated. We can directly pray to the Father! Hallelujah 🫶🏽

What a friend we have in Jesus! No middle man just Christ!

Appreciate so much your understanding of pre-destination, and thanks for reminding us of 2 Peter 3:9 and 1 John 3:2. All these help me so much.

Awesome reminder message and great illustration here. We started the fellowship here on Sunday the 7th of October 2018 and I see this msg was placed here on April 8th which is 5 days to my birthday. Me going through in August 30th, 2022. You have won a new subscriber today from my office in Zurich, Switzerland. God bless you Sir.
