Introduction
Summarize:
1:3-2:10 Our new life in Christ
We are adopted into the family of God
Exposition
Main Passage
Author: Paul
Audience: All the chosen believers
Content: We have been chosen and predestined for adoption to God
Context: The new life is a spiritual blessing
Comparison: Ro 8:15
Explanation
Context of verses 4 and 5: The doctrine of God’s choosing and predestination of the saints is not what saves us.
But our understanding of adoption is enriched by it.
“All those whom God hath predestinated unto life, and those only, He is pleased, in His appointed and accepted time, effectually to call,” The Westminster Confession of Faith, Chapter 10 Section 1
“Election is the gracious purpose of God, according to which He regenerates, justifies, sanctifies, and glorifies (saves) sinners.”
Baptist Faith and Message 2000, Section V.
We already believe in God’s capability:
In our statement of faith
In our prayers
In our testimonies
Verse 4: The purpose of our election is to make us holy and blameless before God.
Through Jesus sacrifice we are justified (v5,7)
Through God’s will we are united with Him by His Grace (v6,9-10)
Verse 5: WHY were we chosen and adopted?
Because it’s God’s will
Remind ourselves of this when we feel undeserving
Remind ourselves of this when we fall into sin
Remind ourselves of this when we feel beaten up
Verse 6: This results in praise
For God’s grace
For the blessing we enjoy
Application
Our adoption inspires affection
Our adoption inspires conviction
Our adoption inspires satisfaction
Our adoption inspires exhortation
