Ephesians tells us that we were dead in our sins. It's a reality that we've all felt, life without hope or peace, life filled with brokenness and pain. Yet Paul, the writer, also tells us that there is another reality, one with blessing, freedom, forgiveness, wholeness and joy. It's a reality that's only found in Jesus and Paul tells us that the amazing news is that it's a reality that God predestined for us in Jesus - a way for all humanity to be made new.
