Ephesians 2:8-10 For by grace
you have been saved through
faith, and that not of yourselves;
it is the gift of God, (9) not of
works, lest anyone should boast.
(10) For we are His
workmanship, created in Christ
Jesus for good works, which
God prepared beforehand that
we should walk in them.

workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for
good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
II. ANSWERED PRAYER

that we have in Him, that if we ask
anything according to His will, He hears us.
III. COMPLETENESS
A.Colossians 2:9-10 For in Him dwells all
the fullness of the Godhead bodily; (10)
and you are complete in Him, who is
the head of all principality and power.
B.PERFECTION - Colossians 1:28 Him we
preach, warning every man and
teaching every man in all wisdom, that
we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.
IV. STABALIZATION
A.2 Corinthians 1:21 Now He who
establishes us with you in Christ and
has anointed us is God,
B.Colossians 2:7 rooted and built up in
Him and established in the faith, as
you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.
V. TRIUMPH
2 Corinthians 2:14 Now thanks be to God
who always leads us in triumph in Christ,
and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.
VI. LIBERTY
Galatians 2:4 And this occurred because
of false brethren secretly brought in (who
came in by stealth to spy out our liberty
which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage),
VII. OBEDIENCE
1 John 3:24 Now he who keeps His
commandments abides in Him, and He in
him. And by this we know that He abides
in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.
IX. LOVE OF GOD
Romans 8:37-39 Yet in all these things
we are more than conquerors through
Him who loved us. (38) For I am
persuaded that neither death nor life, nor
angels nor principalities nor powers, nor
things present nor things to come, (39)
nor height nor depth, nor any other
created thing, shall be able to separate
us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
