"According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love:" Ephesians 1:4
We have studied together so many times that our Father boldly proclaims that through the power of Christ we have been glorified!
“And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are One.” John 17:22
We have seen in the Word of God that we are perfect through our oneness with Christ. “I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me.” John 17:23
We have seen that all things are now new for us. “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17
And here in Ephesians 1 we see that our Father has chosen us and that we are holy and without blame before Him. God’s Truths are awesome, plain and simply awesome! The Blood of Christ is working so strongly for us, no work can justify what the Blood of Christ, shed on the cross, has so freely bestowed upon us. The Holy Spirit that is within us will give us the strength and confidence in the Truth that through Christ we are living a life without any blame!
We tend to talk about this lifestyle of perfection and blamelessness in the future tense, when we are in Heaven, but the Truth that will set us free is that our Father is more than willing and able to cause us to live this way right now! We can never earn this own our own, through our own efforts, but through Christ we freely have it. It’s an easy yoke to be borne, because we have been empowered to simply look unto Jesus to Author and Finish our faith! Through Christ we stand before our Father blameless, apart from any work, with free and complete redemption through the power of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior! Our Father chose to have us because He is able and willing to do these glorious things through us! Our Father knew the way to make us glorious and holy, and our Father gave us the way, the Light, and the Truth, and Jesus is the only way!
"Now He which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts." 2 Corinthians 1:21-22
