The Book of Ephesians

The idea of “hope” is desire and expectation of receiving the eternal inheritance of heaven (cf. Colossians 1:5). The knowledge of this hope comes through God’s “calling” (i.e., the gospel message; cf. 2 Thessalonians 2:14). Paul prays that the Ephesian saints would mold their lives around God’s glorious promises of heaven. ................
