Chosen

All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.’ (John 6:37-40)

Jesus seems to be saying that those who come to him are given to him by his Father and those who willingly come to him and believe in him will have eternal life. Which one is it? Do we have eternal life because of his will or because of ours? Listen below as we continue our study of Ephesians and focus on what Paul means that we are predestined to be adopted as God’s children in verses 4,5, and 11 of chapter 1.
