Title: Made For More Pt 1 (4)
Series: Ephesians
Author: Brian Mills
Text: Eph 2:1-10
We just finished up....
Eph 1 - KNOWN
Eph 2-3 We are Made for More.
Have you ever had someone lean into you and say you are better than that?
Maybe at work - you took a shortcut and told yourself you can do better.
Maybe in college a paper you did - you are better.
Maybe in sports - you can do better than you did today.
Maybe in marriage - you are better than this. Don't do that.
Maybe in Church - you are better than that. Don't fall for that stuff.
Maybe in counseling - you are better than that
What are they saying... You are made for more!!!
Eph chapter 2-3 challenges us that we are Made for More.
We tend to believe we are made to....
Make Money
Raise a family
Be successful
Be a great spouse
Get married
But I think all that is a by-product of what we are made for. We are Made for more!!!
So the next few weeks we want to look into how we are Made for more.
We will be in EPH chapter 2-3.
Today 2:1-10
In Greek, this is all just 2 sentences. 1-7 is one sentence and 8-10 is the second sentence.
All to say.... God Made us for MORE
Paul has taken us from how we are KNOWN by JESUS to how we are MADE for MORE through JESUS.
Eph 2:1-10 [NIV] As for you, We know what God did "Placed all things under his feet (vs 1:22) you were dead in your transgressions (Rebellion) and sins, (Not a Physical death but spiritual death)
Like a family member who was kicked out of their house, not because they were not loved but because their SIN did not allow them to be in
A family member kicked the kid out and the kid slept in a ditch at the end of their driveway.... Not because he was not loved, but because his rebellion removed him from the love that he was given.
He rejected their love through his rebellion...
Sin displays a rejection of the Love that you have been given.
