Bible Note: Hi mommapbs, I don't see the Ephesians passage as being in the future. I don't agree with one writer's notes about verse 7 talking about the Millenial kingdom.

Galatians 4:4, "But when the fullness of time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, in order that He might redeem those who were under the Law,..." I connected the two verses for their mention of "one". John: "I and the **Father are one." Ephesians: "purposed in Himself, that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times, **He might gather together in one..." From the heart, Ray |
