The source of all that you need is already on deposit.

Dr. Tony Evans says God is ready for you to put his provision into practice.

You don't need to ask for what you already have.

What you need to do is act on what you already have.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr.

Tony Evans.

When you want to make a big purchase, the smart thing to do is to check your bank account,

to see what you can actually afford.

Well, today, Dr. Evans points out that believers have access to a heavenly account

that's overflowing with God's blessings. And he says it's time to start drawing from it. Let's join

him in the first chapter of Ephesians as he explains. The first thing I want to talk about is the

author of the book of Ephesians, the apostle Paul. Paul, as we have come to know him, was not his original name.

His original name was Saul.

He was from the tribe of Benjamin, we are told, in Philippians chapter 3.

So there is a great possibility that he was named after another great man named Saul.

Look, for example, at Philippians chapter three.

And let's look at Paul before he was Paul as he recounts his life when he was Saul.

He says in chapter three, verse 4, although I myself might have confidence even in the flesh,

if anyone else has a mind to put confidence in the flesh, I far more.

In other words, if anybody's got a reason to brag, don't come next to me because your

braggadociousness would be made into nothingness when you stand next to me.

I was circumcised the A day. That means my mother and father were religious. They got me down to the temple on time.
