Synopsis

This book is an exposition of a portion of the New Testament's letter to the Ephesians. The author presents a verse-by-verse commentary on the first chapter of the Epistle, focusing on the depth of God's love and the scope and moral force of His word. In the process, the commentary articulates a profound exposition of the scheme of mercy through Jesus Christ, linking it to the general scheme of mercy extended to the Gentiles. Emphasizing that the salvation thus provided is by grace alone, the author explores the nature of true sainthood. The book is written for intelligent, experienced Christians who earnestly seek truth and are willing to study the Lively Oracles. While the author acknowledges that much good instruction is available, they nevertheless believe that in the present era, as at almost no other in history, the nourishment of the inner man is paramount. Equipping the laity for service through a deep understanding of the way of Christ is essential to fulfilling the Great Commission. Through a combination of exegesis, explication, and practical application, the book achieves this goal, offering insights that help readers gain a deeper relationship with God.
