In Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, he addresses many questions to the church about the nature of their relationship with their Savior. How should believers see themselves, and how can we understand God’s grace to us?

Since Scripture is true, since God is faithful, and since God promised He would not allow us to be tempted beyond what we can endure, we have real hope for success and real help from Him.

Can a believer experience sexual purity when everything around him says to indulge and enjoy it? The Bible says yes!
