Ephesians 1:9

"He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him"
Eph 1:9

Verse 9:

Previously His love and saving grace had been told of, yet unclear; when Christ came this mystery was unveiled. His intention was our salvation, this was Christ’s’ purpose.

  • His will was always there, from before the beginning of time
  • His will was for us to be redeemed from our inevitable sin
  • In Christ His will was finally revealed to all
    • We are able to see and understand His will/intentions for us
  • Christ’s single purpose was to fulfill God’s loving kindness
    • God purposed Christ for this
    • His kind intention was for us to be washed clean in Christ’s blood
    • To redeem us to Him
