God's Restoring Power (16 of 18)
Series: The If's, Ands and Buts of the Bible
Dr. Ernest L. Easley
Ephesians 2:1-10
Now join me in the New Testament book of Ephesians as we continue our series of messages under the heading:
The If's, Ands and Buts of the Bible
If this series of messages was the mile run, four laps around a track, we would be on our final lap! We are closing in on the finish line. What I'm trying to tell you is this: we're about to wrap up this series of messages.

Do you know what that tells me about The Providence of God? That He not only pursed me in His providence BEFORE I was saved; He pursues me now in His providence THAT I AM saved. He pursued me BEFORE I was saved, to save me. He pursues me now THAT I AM saved, to sancti ...
