Book: Ephesians
This detailed KJV sermon outline examines Ephesians 1:14 and the Holy Spirit as “the earnest of our inheritance,” God’s present pledge that He will complete the redemption He began. It explains the biblical order of hearing the gospel, believing on Jesus Christ, and being sealed with the Holy Spirit; the seal as God’s mark of ownership; the meaning of the earnest as a divine guarantee; and the believer’s heavenly inheritance in Christ. The outline also distinguishes present spiritual redemption from the future redemption of the body, establishes eternal security from Ephesians 4:30, and shows how the completed work will be “unto the praise of his glory.” Preachers, teachers, and Bible students will gain a sermon-ready treatment of salvation by grace, the Spirit’s sealing ministry, the purchased possession, bodily redemption, assurance, and faithful Christian living.
