Scripture Post #560: *SPOT OR WRINKLE*

Ephesians 5:

26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

This Scripture was from Apostle Paul to the Saints of Ephesus (Eph. 1:1).

Eph. 5:25: "…Christ…loved the church, and gave himself for it;"

V. 26: "That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,"

V. 27: "That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish."

A Church not having *SPOT OR WRINKLE*—holy and without blemish—a Church washed and sanctified by CHRIST out of HIS great love for us. GOD wants you pure and clean. JESUS CHRIST makes us pure and clean. It's not impossible. 

(JESUS speaking:)

Luke 18:27: "And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God."

If you and I would just die to ourselves, we'd be free from sin!

Rom. 6:1: "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?"

V. 2: "God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?"

V. 7: "For he that is dead is freed from sin."
