Even after four decades of walking with the Lord, I will never get over how He can bring a message such as this at the absolute perfect time. It just drives home all the more the unsurpassing grace and omniscient power of our Heavenly Father.
Me too. My church does bible study but I am not able to attend due to illness. Then I found this channel and I am pleased so I can study on my daily devotional. Thank you pts Paul 😇😇 from Somerset UK
Everytime I get in my car I turn one of these fantastic sermons on I have several I go to. They’re just SO good. Gets me closer and closer to Jesus every day
Prasise the Lord !!!❤ salvation in Christ Jesus alone and santification through the work of the Holy Spirit in a belivers life is a process of being disciple by the teaching and watering of God’s living Word. Lord gives us His Grace to grow in the knowledge of Christ Jesus. I am grateful for Pastor Paul teachings of the Holy Scriptures and the working of the Holy Spirit in our life.
I have just found this channel and I have been listening to his sermons non stop for days. I even fall asleep listening to him at nights. May God continue to bless you and your family, Sir. Thank you for these videos. You will not fully know the impact you are having until we stand before our heavenly father. Keep up the great work
Was it not the Spirtual Kingdom of God that came near when people were healed.. by Jesus .. So healing is in the Spiritual realm.. Luke 12:32 states that it gave God pleasure to give us His Kingdom (the same Kingdom that Jesus used (His authority) to heal with is also in us). Col 2:9-10. In us is the fullness of the power and authority of God. 1 Cor 6:19 in us is the Spirit that raised Jesus from the grave..we are His Temple. Simply, there is no desease in the Kingdom of God.. Mark has many scriptures explaining we have been called to go out and heal..
Yes he’s awesome, I just pray and god leads me to awesome people like him and Gary Hamrick. Just great speakers. I often tell people it’s like hearing the Bible for dummies because they just make it so understanding . Praise God for these brothers in Christ
Thank you Lord for all that you've done for me. I pray for my family and friends. Use me oh Lord and make me a light in this world that keeps getting darker and darker.
When I struggle studying and understanding certain books of the Bible I turn towards your videos. As always, they delivery me to a better understanding. Thanks for the hard work you put in.
I found this very moving that I was chosen before I was born. I wish I hadn't failed him so many times...but so relieved he is a forgiving God. Thank you for this teaching Pastor and thank you LORD for your mercy and Grace. God bless all and Christian love. Gilly wife of Mark in Norfolk UK
Wow, pastor Paul... best bible study I have ever heard you teach and I have heard many of your studies. Thank you so much for your faithful service to the Lord and ministry. God bless you and your family.
Thank you for your honest interpretation and teaching! As a Bible Believing born again Christian... I kept looking for a good sermon on Ephesians and I kept running into the false Calvinistic interpretations that lie to people and preach a false Gospel. Thank you, brother! 🙏 ❤️
People need to be shooken up they need to be awakened Lord. You can do all things through Christ that's strengthens you. God is watching over you no matter who you are no matter what .
These words are amazing. What an insight, a depth into the mystery. Thank you very much. You don't know how much this helped me. I'm so grateful and blessed to listen to this.
Wow glory to my father my redeemer who gave me life and forever loves me.. grace abounds in your pst paul leboutillitor for sharing the anointing word....!!!!
very interesting message. I read it many times and got blessed. I encourage every one to read the whole EPISTLE TO EPHESIANS and know your benefits of being Christian. You understand your position in CHRIST.
So awesome so rewarding so victory to be here.Thank you Jesus the love of my entire life ❤ Thank you Pastor Paul ❣🙏Hallelujah!❤ to our forever Faithful Loving soon coming Jesus Christ ❤ Yes, we are walking in the reality of who we are in Jesus Christ.. Love and Prayers to you Pastor Paul for being so faithful to be here teaching us the very will of God for our lives under the anointing of the HolySpirit of God Almighty 🙏❤
💕🙏💕fairly new with my walk-but what a trip! It’s like a brand new world opening up to me and I cannot thank you enough for your help on this journey Pastor Paul! Love you brother!💕
Thank you for your very own continued experience, creativity with tutoring to back-up my adventure to becoming increasingly consciously aware of the fact in addition to spiritually connected.
Thank you Paul for sharing God’s Word which is. Thank you for helping impart Gods word is a richly and loving manner. You make the Word of God interesting and you get to dive into the word of God. May God continue to bless you and your ministry. 🙏 Amen
I'm so amazed and blessed to have found this ministry by pure "accident" a few months ago, can't even remember how it was but more than likely as a spinoff from some other RUclips clip I was watching at the time. It could probably be figured out by looking over my RUclips history, but regardless, God's hand was in it! Thanks to brother Paul for bearing God's message through such a clear and present-day down to earth presentation of how to make God's word relevant to our daily lives.🙏🙌
Beautiful message, I am blessed and encouraged through God’s word. I thank God for your ministry. Thank you for answering the call. I pray that I will always have you apart of my prayers. The fact that we have the privilege to be called the friend of God is by far a wonderful blessing. You opened my eyes to on of God’s full-gilled prophecy through His word because followers of Christ are no longer separated. We can directly pray to the Father! Hallelujah 🫶🏽 What a friend we have in Jesus! No middle man just Christ!
This is such an eve opener. Thank you so much Pastor Paul. Wish I had find your page much sooner. May our father in heaven continue to watch over and bless you always 🙏🏽
Hello and thanks for your comment. Pastor Paul completely believes that physical healing takes place today and he often prays for people that they might be healed. What Pastor Paul was saying is that physical healing is not a guarantee of the new covenant that has been established through Jesus Christ. If you would like to get further clarification you can message him at ccontario.com/pastor-paul
We may sin and sometimes we don't know we are doing it and sometimes we sin and we know that we're doing it. But I want to ask forgiveness. And your mercy Lord. If I have send against you. Humble me.. forgive my trespasses.
Thank you for your thoughtful insight into the Book of Ephesians. It is a book of words spiritually calming for me. The scriptures used in your Bible Study, are without mistake, God's expectations for humanity regarding redemption. Not complicated at all, when one listens, to good teaching (such as yours), prays, and study. ✝️
Yes! I, Annelies Bakker, agree with ephesians 1:10 for my life and those who need to be made whole, declaring this words become truth from now on, binding to hell every form of disunity in the spirit, body and soul in my life, the lives of my family and friends and those around me, the lives of my opponents and the body of Christ: "As a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth." In the name and blood of Jesus Christ I ask to be answered by God almigthy: amen!
Physical healing is not part of the new covenant but it was a promise in the covenant God had with Israel. Ours is a spiritual covenant! ❤ This made my day. Thank you Pastor Paul
Thank you for sharing God bless you I pray Our families and the lost come to seek The Lord and find Him in Jesus Name Amen may the Lord's Will be Done Amen Grace be with you Amen
Wow. Glad I found you today. Most preachers leave me with a sense of underlying stress. But for the first time since I was a new Christian 37 yes ago , I have a sense of peace and joy and praise. It almost makes me wish I lived in communist Canada, so I could attend your congregation. My other hero in the faith is Mike winger also Calvert chapel. I wish I could find one here in Michigan.
Thank you for this. I’ve been struggling with whether the Calvinistic theology is sound, and this clarifies it for me. I’ve encountered some seemingly very good reformed pastors.... and I am hoping it’s not a salvation issue (at least I hope not). I just wish Christians didn’t have to argue about, or take sides, or label themselves, on issues like this.
Amen and Amen Ms Mary Chambers, me to, am so very very grateful, thankful to The Almighty God for Pastor Paul/Calvary Chapel, for these precious Bible Study on different parts of the Holy Bible. I shared it with others, you can also share it. Continued blessings to you Pastor Paul/Calvary Chapel for being a blessing to the Body of Christ 🙌🙏🙌
Surely God who is Sovereign does know who will be saved and who will perish!! He is Sovereign. He is all knowing. We don't know who but we spread the Good news to all. It just means that he knows, we don't.
AMEN to that !!!! I was very confused over this and it definitely goes against scripture...Context is very important, Peter was talking to those that were already established believers in Christ Jesus in that passage he put on the screen.
Thank you Pastor God bless you I just started reading the book of Ephesians me and my sons and I didn’t know how to explain some of it but reading the word tonight with you opened up so much thank you thank you so much I was attracted to the word lavish as well and didn’t know about your video until I was finished reading the Bible and then went to the RUclips and touch me I was interested in the great word mystery two didn’t know that you said all these words truly led by God God bless you don’t stop doing gods work amen a friend from Boston your brother God bless🙏
I'm not far from Oregon. I'd like to be a part of this church. Paul teaches God's Word and makes it easy for me to understand. Answering questions I always have. I wish he could have made a whole sermon on a place where he trailed off.... 12:09 ~ "OK, enough of that..." ~ Satan will sniff out that little bit of doubt. He will beat the sparks out of you He will MAKE you sure that you are NOT called if you have that doubt" ~ This is so important "Saints" because You might not be afraid of the devil and you do believe he exists. Some people think the devil is a cute little monster made for the movies. Others don't even think he exists. For the Saints who believe that he exists and are NOT afraid of him... you must ponder; If this is so; Satan knows you are not afraid of him and he knows that YOU KNOW he exists. He is the MASTER DECEIVER. Where will he go to attack you if you aren't afraid and you know he exists? He will go STRAIGHT TO YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE in the Lord. This is what I believe the pastor is speaking of. He "Sniffs out that little tidbit" .. your lack of knowledge to KNOW WHERE YOU STAND IN CHRIST AND WHAT POWER YOU NOW HAVE IN CHRIST. He preys on your lack of knowledge. This is why I am here and this is why I love listening to Paul speak. The Bible is a map. It is a book of warning. It is a book of power. It is not something that just sits with other books for casual entertainment for your reading pleasure. Great sermon. I have to re-wind in segments because the words are the TOOLS to fight evil principalities. The toolbox to our salvation lies within the Bible and the people who are called to teach us.
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To God’s holy people in Ephesus,[a] the faithful in Christ Jesus: 2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise for Spiritual Blessings in Christ 3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he[b] predestined us for adoption to sonship[c] through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will- 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace 8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, 9 he[d] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment-to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ. 11 In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession-to the praise of his glory. Thanksgiving and Prayer 15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way. Footnotes Ephesians 1:1 Some early manuscripts do not have in Ephesus. Ephesians 1:5 Or sight in love. 5 He Ephesians 1:5 The Greek word for adoption to sonship is a legal term referring to the full legal standing of an adopted male heir in Roman culture.

Awesome reminder message and great illustration here. We started the fellowship here on Sunday the 7th of October 2018 and I see this msg was placed here on April 8th which is 5 days to my birthday. Me going through in August 30th, 2022. You have won a new subscriber today from my office in Zurich, Switzerland. God bless you Sir.
Just reminding myself about how I am the Temple of the living God.. (as ours is a Spiritual Covernent) 25:26 They, (Israel), dont even have a temple? This lets my mind fly off onto lovely paths of study :)
Even after four decades of walking with the Lord, I will never get over how He can bring a message such as this at the absolute perfect time. It just drives home all the more the unsurpassing grace and omniscient power of our Heavenly Father.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm so amazed and blessed to have found this ministry by pure "accident" a few months ago, can't even remember how it was but more than likely as a spinoff from some other RUclips clip I was watching at the time. It could probably be figured out by looking over my RUclips history, but regardless, God's hand was in it! Thanks to brother Paul for bearing God's message through such a clear and present-day down to earth presentation of how to make God's word relevant to our daily lives.🙏🙌

Such a great teacher....
Closer closer walk with you.
Have been blessed, frm kenya
From Kenya too. This has been my bible study tool for two years now. I am blessed.
Excellent teaching
I'm not far from Oregon. I'd like to be a part of this church. Paul teaches God's Word and makes it easy for me to understand. Answering questions I always have. I wish he could have made a whole sermon on a place where he trailed off.... 12:09 ~ "OK, enough of that..." ~ Satan will sniff out that little bit of doubt. He will beat the sparks out of you He will MAKE you sure that you are NOT called if you have that doubt" ~ This is so important "Saints" because You might not be afraid of the devil and you do believe he exists. Some people think the devil is a cute little monster made for the movies. Others don't even think he exists. For the Saints who believe that he exists and are NOT afraid of him... you must ponder; If this is so; Satan knows you are not afraid of him and he knows that YOU KNOW he exists. He is the MASTER DECEIVER. Where will he go to attack you if you aren't afraid and you know he exists? He will go STRAIGHT TO YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE in the Lord. This is what I believe the pastor is speaking of. He "Sniffs out that little tidbit" .. your lack of knowledge to KNOW WHERE YOU STAND IN CHRIST AND WHAT POWER YOU NOW HAVE IN CHRIST. He preys on your lack of knowledge. This is why I am here and this is why I love listening to Paul speak. The Bible is a map. It is a book of warning. It is a book of power. It is not something that just sits with other books for casual entertainment for your reading pleasure. Great sermon. I have to re-wind in segments because the words are the TOOLS to fight evil principalities. The toolbox to our salvation lies within the Bible and the people who are called to teach us.
These things will follow those who believe and teach
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God,
To God’s holy people in Ephesus,[a] the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Praise for Spiritual Blessings in Christ
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he[b] predestined us for adoption to sonship[c] through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will- 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace 8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, 9 he[d] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment-to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.
11 In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession-to the praise of his glory.
Thanksgiving and Prayer
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
