The saga of "The Secret of GOD", as shown in Ephesians Inroduction; from the standpoint of a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

This Introduction to Paul's Ephesians Epistle is taken from the Mirror Study Bible which has a GOD view kind of mindset written within it. This is the same or very similar mindset that developed within me over the years of doing the studies of Christ Jesus in response to his question of Matthew 11:29, which is, "Are you ready to learn of Me?"

"In poetic articulation Paul unfolds the message of the mystery of Christ as representing humanity. He is absolutely passionate in his prayers and desires for everyone to see and comprehend how completely associated they are in Christ. GOD found us in Christ before he lost us in Adam.

Ephesians 1:10 "In the economy of the fullness of time, everything culminated in Christ; all that is in heaven and all that is on earth is reconciled in him."

He see heaven not as a distant goal for us to strive towards, but how completely GOD has already lavished upon us every blessing heaven has in Christ. This is our point of departure! WE are co-raised and co-seated together with Christ in heacenly places to begin with! Long before anyone but GOD believed it we were made alive together with Christ; "I desire that you know by revelation what he has known about you all along! I pray that your thoughts will be flooded with his light and inspired insight."

Ephesians 2:10 "We are engineered by his design; he molded and manufactured us in Christ design. We are his workmanship, his poetry. We are fully fit to do good, equipped to give attractive evidence of his likeness in us in everything we do."

Ephesians 3:4 "In reading these words you will perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ."

Ephesians 3:20 "We celebrate his who supercharges us powerfully from within. Our biggest request or most amazing dream cannot match the extravagant proportion of his thoughts towards us."

Ephesians 4:7 "The gift of Christ gives dimension to grace and defines our individual value."

Ephesians 4:23 "Be renewed in your innermost mind! It will cause you to be completely reprogrammed in the way you think about yourself!"

Ephesians 4:15 "Agape gives truth its voice. The conversation that truth inspires creates the atmosphere wherein growth is both spontaneous and inevitable. The whole person is addressed in Christ who is the head of the body; he is the conclusion of GOD's communication with humanity."

Ephesians 4:16 "From him flows the original composition and detail of our design. Like words entwined in poetry, they connect layer upon layer to complete the harmony, following the rhythm of his thoughts like footprints. Meanwhile the body thrives and pulsates with the energy of Agape. Each individual expression finds its complete measure there."

Ephesians 4:21 "It is not possible to study Christ in any other context; he is the incarnation; hear his resonate within you! The truth about you has its ultimate reference in Jesus."

He did not come to introduce a new compromised set of rules; he is not an example for us but of us!"

Ephesians 5:14 "This is the message of light; Christ awakens in you from your intoxicated slumber and resurrects you out of the death trap of enslavement's thought patterns." (The Mirror)

With our next visit the LORD GOD willing we shall begin Ephesians. Until then may the LORD Christ do in you and your what has been established already herein.
