Dearly beloved congregation of our Lord Jesus Christ, we continue this morning to look at the magnificent doxology with which Paul opens his letter to the Ephesian church. We have already seen the rich spiritual blessings we have from God the Father, and principally the blessing of being chosen or pre-decided on by our Father. We come today to the rich spiritual blessings we have from Jesus Christ, the Son of God. The principal spiritual benefit He grants to us is not election — that’s the Father’s gift. It’s not sealing — that’s the Spirit’s gift. The principal spiritual benefit Jesus Christ grants to us is redemption. Paul describes in the text before us something of the nature of our redemption and something of the measure of our redemption. What I hope to show you this morning is that those who are in Christ have a richly gracious redemption, one that He procured for them at the cost of His own blood.
