The theologian John Mackay once described the book of Ephesians as “the distilled essence of the Christian religion, the most authoritative and most consummate compendium of our holy Christian faith.” Writing to a church facing timeless challenges, the apostle Paul set out to remind his readers of all that God has accomplished for us in Christ—and what we then do and become in response. Throughout history, the resulting six chapters have brought countless people to an understanding of their place in the purposes of God and the wonders of His grace and peace.
In volume eight of this series, Alistair Begg helps us to understand better the biblical call to holiness and purity amid a spiritually dark and dreary world. God’s grace, he reminds us, doesn’t end with our forgiveness; it continues to fill us, enabling us to walk in the very footsteps of the Lord Jesus Himself and to make the invisible God seen through our words and deeds.
