All Are Sinners. In this book of Ephesians, Paul made it very clear that every human being is a sinner. In fact, they are all dead in trespasses and sins. (Ephesians 2:1)

All Must Be Saved. Since all are sinners and dead in trespasses and sins, all must be saved. Paul differed with the liberals and apostates of our day who say that all are saved and will go to God’s heaven. God’s salvation cannot be accomplished by our works. It is only by God’s grace that people can be saved, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9).

All Saved Should Serve. Though none can be saved by their good works, once saved, all should serve the Lord by good works which God has ordained that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10). Though we cannot serve God to be saved, once we are saved, we should serve the Lord with willing hearts and with good works.
