The writer of Hebrews wants us to grasp the sure and confident stabilizer to orient our life steadily to the presence of God – only available through the Perfect High Priest, Jesus Christ.

Boaz and Ruth are such godly examples for us to emulate. Yet both of them humbly trusted God for their salvation. Even Boaz admitted (beyond what he understood) that there was a closer Redeemer than he could be. And so we finish by looking at the Greater Redeemer than Boaz. Jesus purchases our sin debt to God, rescues us from slavery to sin, and reconciles us into the family of God. He is our Greater Redeemer.

It is easy to consider the Christian religion to be a series of “do’s” and “do not’s” but that is inaccurate. Rather, Christianity is an emphatic “done” in Christ for Jesus proclaimed from the cross, “It is finished!” And these messages are no different. We take the time to hear from God how Christ gave us favor with God, when we needed it most.
Christ increased in favor with God on our behalf.

While the pastor was off, we had a technical malfunction and did not record our guest speaker. Our apologies, Bro. Allen. But the last time the preacher was gone back in August, Bro. Gabe Harris came and preached the word for us at Prairie Oaks, twice in one day. We posted the morning message back then. This week we are including Gabe’s verse-by-verse exposition from Ephesians 1 that he preached to our evening congregation.
Ephesians 1 is a powerful passage of Scripture that we do well to ponder upon often as Paul condenses what Christ accomplished for each of us who are in Christ. And Gabe does a great job of revealing the glory that Paul packed into this letter.
