Paul writes to help those who follow Jesus know how to live in a pagan world. He begins by reminding us of our identity in Christ.
In Christ, we are blessed, loved, chosen, holy, adopted, redeemed, forgiven, included, marked, and called.
Paul prays followers of Jesus would experience greater spiritual understanding, enlightenment, and insight into the depths of the incredible power and hope that comes through faith in Jesus. He desires for them to know God more deeply and to fully grasp His love, power, and grace.
