EPHESIANS 1:
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of His calling,
...and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe,
according to the working of His mighty power,
| DAY 20—The Redemption Christ obtained for us is eternal. |

My salvation became real to me under the preaching of a young Baptist Pastor. I remember the “beginner’s” class he taught. One of his strongest points was, “Now that you are saved, there is no way you can get unsaved.” That was Baptist doctrine—at least it was for that Pastor. About a year later things didn’t seem to be going quite so well for me, so I decided I would just stop being a Christian. Then I remembered what my Pastor had taught me and said to myself, “You can’t stop being a Christian.” So—I gave up on the idea and have stayed “saved” for fifty years, watching the continuing faithfulness of a powerful, loving, forgiving and utterly amazing Lord.
Hebrews 7: 25—Wherefore He is able (powerful) also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Hebrews 9:12—Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His Own blood He entered in once into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal REDEMPTION for us.
FATHER, help me live with eternity’s values in view. Give me an understanding of Your eternal Kingdom. Let my life come into line with the values and ways of Your Kingdom. Here are some I hold before You whose values seem to be in line with this corrupt age. Please draw them to seek Your eternal values.
