Med#4: Predestination: too much to fathom?
Ephesians 1:5 He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will..
We are, quite simply, predestined through Jesus; but, predestined for what and how? Consider the other PP’s (prepositional phrases) in verse 5 and again realize who you are and what you have as a believer.
Reflection Questions
1) Compare and contrast ‘chosen’ and ‘predestined’. Why both?
2) Does this fact humble you or compel you to ask for humility?
3) What does ‘adoption’ mean to you?
