The Ephesians “Sonship” Distinction

Listen to Today’s Audio Goodie
(Let Clyde read the Goodie for you!)

The Romans 9 “sonship” is the exclusive prerogative of “Israel according to the flesh,” the Galatians 4 “sonship” extends to the spiritual seed of Abraham who are not “after the flesh” (:23), but was associated with “Jerusalem which is above” (:26). However, the Ephesians “sonship” has no relationship whatsoever to Abraham or Israel. It has no connection with the promises made to the fathers, it is not founded on an earthly inheritance (allotment). The Ephesians “sonship” extends back before the disruption of the world, and extends “far above” all heavens. These three “sonships” correspond to the three distinct spheres of blessing.
