Bible Note: Dear Doc, If I understood you correctly, in effect, the "us" and the "we" refer only to the sanctified and faithful followers of Jesus Christ of all ages? If so, then the apostle Paul was, in a way, telling the Church at Ephesus that only the sanctified and faithful followers of Christ were chosen by God and predestined for adoption as sons through Christ, with all others excluded? If this was really what the apostle Paul meant, why did he tell Timothy that God "desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth."? 1 Timothy 2:4, NASB. |
