The best gifts are not material but spiritual, not temporal, but eternal, and not earthly, and not earthly, but heavenly.

In the book of Ephesians, we discover a rich list of what God has given to his children.

Let's join Scott Pauley now as we open this portion of Scripture and take inventory of all spiritual blessings that are ours in Christ.

We've come today to the end of our little study through the book of Ephesians and all spiritual blessings.

And we're in Ephesion 6 at the closing verses.

But before I look at those verses with you today, I want to give you a verse from Hebrew 6.

Hebrew 6, verse 9, says, but beloved, we are persuaded better things of you and things that accompany

salvation, though we thus speak.

Hebrews 6 is a description of people who turn away from the truth of Christ, who reject the faith.

But he says, we're persuaded better things of you.

Although I have to talk this way, I want you to know, here's what I believe you're going to

enjoy.

And he uses this expression, things that accompany salvation.

You see, my friend, when you get saved,

you get all of the riches and resources of our God.

You get, in the words of Ephesians,

all spiritual blessings.

When I came to know Jesus as my Savior 40 years ago,

just as a boy, I didn't understand all of these things.

All I knew was I needed Jesus, but here's the beautiful truth.

When you get Jesus, you get it all.

You don't get salvation on increments.
