What Jesus Said About Spiritual WarfareVzorec

Your authority in Christ Jesus

Read Ephesians 1:19 – 2:7

This is one of the most remarkable passages in the New Testament. Please study this with much care.

Answer the following questions:

Ephesians 1:19-20 - Who raised Jesus from the dead? How is this power described?

Ephesians 1:20 – Where is Jesus seated right now?

Ephesians 1:20-23 – Write down five things that describe Jesus’ current position.

Ephesians 2:1-3 – This passage draws a parallel between the death of Jesus and our spiritual death. Except that Jesus had no sin.

Ephesians 2:4-6 – How did our situation of spiritual death change?

Ephesians 2:6 – What is our spiritual position now? How does this correlate with the actual spiritual position of Jesus as described in Eph.1:20-23?

You have to ask the Holy Spirit to give you insight. Our spiritual position in Eph.2:6 can be described as a spiritual position of authority. Remember, we have this position as long as we are in Jesus.

This is a position in Christ – you do not have to work for it. It is given to you. You need it for your battle against the forces of darkness.
