Read Ephesians 1:5-12
· What did God determine beforehand for those who believe in Christ? What is the process for us to be “adopted as his sons?”
· Re-read verses 7-10. What did Christ provide for believers? What is redemption? How did Jesus provide redemption?
· According to verse 9, what was Christ’s purpose?
· Re-read the entire passage looking for the words “plan” and “purpose.” What insights does this give us into God’s character?

He predestined adoption for us. The process of adoption is that He chose us, we become redeemed by the One He loves receiving forgiveness by His free grace. Christ Jesus provides redemption. Redemption is the purchasing back of something. Verse 9 teaches us that He made known to us the mystery of his will. The Jews didn't know that God was in 3 persons and that they would need redemption from the only One that could afford the price.
