Eph 1:18 : What is Salvation ?


 

St Paul says he is praying that the eyes of the Ephesians’s heart will be opened so that they may know and experience God in all his riches and power. That basically is Salvation. Amazing Grace I once was lost but now I SEE. And Job in chapter 42 of Job says “Ahh before I only heard of you but now I SEE you”. If we only heard of God which is what many are doing when they go to church on Sunday. They listen to the sermon or message . They experience God second hand , hearing of God from others experience. To know God is to SEE him. See him with our Spirit. This is being Saved.

It’s not so much she took him away but by being with her awaken a courage that’s always b

 In the spiritual realm. Jesus was operating in a high level of spiritual consciousness. He was exercising full authority in the spirit. In the spirit, he was before Abraham. Ok which point in time before Abraham then ? Right at the beginning. Right at the Origin of Things. Or even the Originator of things itself. As a Jew, as a rabbi as a citizen he has no authority but in the spirit representative  of the Divine he is who he is .
