Med#9: More pregnant words…
Ephesians 1:11 In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will..
So, if it wasn’t enough that Jesus should include us in His plans, He adds to the aforementioned blessings the idea of inheritance – and there’s that word ‘predestined’ again. Does this mean that way before you and I were born, He decided to put us in His will?
