me.  I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness
        could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”


        Romans 6:11,
        “Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto
        sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord”.


        Reckoning, doesn’t make it true.  Believing, doesn’t make it true.
        I don’t reckon the color of my pants.  The manufacturer did that.  I
        just put them on, and walk in them.  Get your eyes off of faith,
        (your ability to believe), and put them on the Lord Jesus Christ.
        Just take it, saying “Amen” (God is a trustworthy King),  and enter
        into the wealth.

        Let me close with a clincher verse from Psalm 81:13,
        “Oh that people would listen to me.”     And then verse 16,


        “I would feed you with the finest of wheat and with honey
        from the rock I would satisfy you.”
        That’s God’s heart.  “Oh, if they would listen, I would feed
        them with honey out of the rock, the finest of wheat.”  Those
        are the big movements in the book of Ephesians.   I hope this
        study is just the very beginning of your “Magical Mystery Tour”
        into the depths of this epistle.  Infinite blessings and blessed
        responsibilities that will continue for all eternity………………...
        Let’s close with these words,  Ephesians 6:23-24,


        “Peace be to the brethren,  and love with faith from God the
        Father and the Lord Jesus Christ;  grace be with all those
        who love our Lord Jesus Christ with a love incorruptible.”
