Amid a society where wealth is often the measurement of success, popular author Warren Wiersbe unpacks the book of Ephesians to prove the countercultural nature of the Gospel. Through helpful illustrations and analysis, he opens your eyes to the riches that believers already have, frequently without knowing or taking advantage of them.
Ultimately, believers have salvation, and with this gift comes many other blessings. You have the Holy Spirit empowering you for the work of the Kingdom. You have the necessary spiritual armor fighting off enemy attacks. You have never-fading wealth promising eternity with a perfect God.
Not only has God given you the "engagement ring" of His Holy Spirit as a promise for eternal bliss, but you already have the victory that Christ bought on your behalf Perhaps you don't know how rich you are--yet. You'll soon see that the tangible things of this life can never amass an eternal fortune.
