Ephesians 2:1-5
Welcome to all those watching online as well as those worshipping with us in person. If you are a first time guest with us this morning, I want to welcome you home. This is a great place for you to be today. I hope you find your spiritual home and some good friends along the way.
Keep your Bible open to Ephesians 2 with me.
Homecoming Queen
An assistant principal at an elementary school was recently accused of accessing the school district's internal system in order to cast fraudulent votes for her daughter. Her 17 year old daughter was elected homecoming queen at Tate High School in Pensacola, Florida. But school district computer experts could tell that the votes came from the same IP address. They knew something was wrong. It turns out that her mother, the assistant principal was arrested along with the daughter for the scheme. Authorities were not exactly sure who cast the fraudulent votes. I imagine those two sat in jail at some point with wildly running emotions wondering, ''What's wrong with me?''
All of us have asked that question at one time or another, ''What's wrong with me?'' I am not speaking about, ''What's wrong with you.'' No, the title of the message is ''What's wrong with me?''
Ephesians 2 is the classic text on the Bible's teaching on sin. But it's also the classic teaching on the Bible's view of salvation. In fact, if God had commissioned a website about heaven and who gets in and who's prevented, the home page would be Ephesians 2. For the next few minutes, I want to explore how the Bible addresses what is wrong with us in order for us to understand how God fixes us.
