INTRO: Before we begin this message, I want to show you where we are in Ephesians as I outline the book. Let me liken this book to a most beautiful hike, a very scenic trail in beautiful mountains. (Pictures ?? Dean Funk.) Let us say your hike is a total of 70 miles. And on this hike are lakes and beautiful scenes of snow capped peaks. There are flowers and birds and animals and fish. There are lakes and streams rushing downhill, and springs and pools. There is sight after sight. Just the flora and fauna alone is enough to keep you occupied, never mind all the rest.
The first 45 miles take you from Ephesians 1:3 to 3:21, I have called this section the wonderful work of salvation. There are two sections to this part of the trail. The first is the blessed source of our salvation. That is from 1:3-14. Then there are the prayers of the thankful messenger, Paul. That goes from 1:15-3:21.
