you were dead in trespasses

and sins

In which at one time you walked.

You were following the course

and fashion of this world, following

the prince of the power of the air.

You were obedient to and under the

control of the spirit that still constantly

works in the sons of disobedience.

(Ephesians 2.1 and 2).

POINTS FOR PRAISES
AND MEDITATION:

1) Before our salvation,before

 we were reconciled,

were spiritually dead.

2) The only way to spiritual

rebirth is by acknowledgement

of Jesus Christ as our Lord and

Savior. Upon repentance and

baptism we are born again.

3) Prior to this spiritual rebirth

the natural person is under the sway

of the evil spirits following the prince

of the power of the air, the devil.

4) Our salvation and spiritual rebirth

positions us under the God’s favor.

5) This rebirth is described by our Lord

and Savior Jesus Christ:

” I assure you, most solemnly I tell you,

that unless a person is born again from

above, he cannot ever see ( know,

experience) the kingdom of God.”

(John 3.3).

As He explains this process:

” I assure you, most solemnly

I tell you, unless a man is born of

water and the Spirit, he cannot ever

enter the kingdom of God.

What is born of the flesh is flesh

and what is born of the Spirit

is spirit”

( John 3. 5 and 6).

PRAISE THE LORD! HALLELUJAH!
