Cosmic Christianity The Letter to Ephesus MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE

REMEMBER THE THREE PIVOTAL PRAYERS COSMIC CHRISTIANITY REMEMBER THE THREE PIVOTAL PRAYERS Introduction

COSMIC CHRISTIANITY 1. Thanksgiving 2. Wisdom & Revelation to know HIM 3. Enlighten the eyes of the heart with the Word. Introduction

COSMIC CHRISTIANITY 1 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. 3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. 4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, EPHESIANS 2:1-7

COSMIC CHRISTIANITY 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. EPHESIANS 2:1-7

From Genesis 1:1 we are introduced to ANOTHER whole world out there! COSMIC CHRISTIANITY From Genesis 1:1 we are introduced to ANOTHER whole world out there! Introduction

“In the beginning God created the heavens & the earth…” Genesis 1:1 More Than Meets The Eye “In the beginning God created the heavens & the earth…” Genesis 1:1 Introduction

More Than Meets The Eye Because we have such detail about us in Scripture we tend to think we are all there is to this creation. Materialists think that only the material world – the ERETZ is all there is. Introduction

More Than Meets The Eye 1 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. EPHESIANS 2:1-2

TRANSGRESSION & DEATH IS A UNIVERSAL PROBLEM More Than Meets The Eye TRANSGRESSION & DEATH IS A UNIVERSAL PROBLEM NUMBER ONE

THE SOUL THAT SINS - DIES More Than Meets The Eye THE SOUL THAT SINS - DIES NUMBER ONE

More Than Meets The Eye 1 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. EPHESIANS 2:1-2

THREE APOSTOLIC PRAYERS LIFE ON EARTH IS DOMINATED BY DISOBEDIENCE A SPIRITUAL PROBLEM with a SPIRITUAL SOURCE NUMBER TWO

THERE NEEDS TO BE A “USED TO”! More Than Meets The Eye THERE NEEDS TO BE A “USED TO”! NUMBER TWO

More Than Meets The Eye 1. Followed the ways (wisdom) of this world 2. Followed the ways of the ruler of kingdom of the air 3. There is a spirit of disobedience NUMBER TWO

More Than Meets The Eye 3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. EPHESIANS 2:1-7

More Than Meets The Eye 1. Jew & Gentile alike shared in this problem 2. The appetite of self-fulfilling thoughts and actions 3. The consequences is wrath NUMBER THREE

More Than Meets The Eye 4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is by grace you have been saved. EPHESIANS 2:1-7

More Than Meets The Eye 1. LOVE trumps JUSTICE & WRATH 2. MERCY acts to spare us our just desserts 3. GRACE gives us an alternative of SALVATION NUMBER FOUR

COSMIC CHRISTIANITY 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. EPHESIANS 2:1-7

More Than Meets The Eye 1. The church is raised and seated with Christ. 2. Our seat is in the heavenly realms. 3. We are the eternal object lesson of kindness. NUMBER FIVE

There is more than meets the eye… THIS is not all there is! CONCLUSION

More Than Meets The Eye A new life is available right now and it is offered from another realm and is lived by the ways of another wisdom to the ends of another purposes. CONCLUSION

More Than Meets The Eye God’s purposes are realized in THIS world and in the HEAVENLY realms – if we are willing. CONCLUSION
