Note: The author of this work believes without reservation, that the King James Bible is more than just a priceless work of literary art, which it is. But it is has indeed been preserved without error by God's providence as an infallible book that the common man in the English speaking world can hold and own, and the light it can give rest entirely on that man's faith in it and its Author. And all those who believe otherwise have either been duped, have an unclean motive, are just ignorant or see no issue of importance in having God's word readily available in an infallible form. No amount of linguist ability can give any extra light if there is doubt to its content, the Holy Spirit will not honour anyone that want to subject this English Bible to an inferior position.

Such a simple preposition, yet it is the key and the blessing of the book of Ephesians. While the word faith appears 8 times, heavenly places 5 times, grace 12 times, his 37 times and walks 7 times the over all winner is this little English word in. In the software I use it appears 105 times . Yet, back in the real study days when all I had was a pencil it appeared less than that. So I guess there is something to be said of computers.
The point is all your blessings have to do with the word in as long as it is connected to being IN Christ Jesus. IN CHRIST 10 verses 10 times HELLO GENTILE Eph_1:1; Eph_1:3; Eph_1:10; Eph_1:12; Eph_1:20; Eph_2:6; Eph_2:10; Eph_2:13;Eph_3:6; Eph_3:11; Do yourselves a favour (Strawberry or vanilla) take out that pencil and circle the word " in" in the book of Ephesians. When then Writ says he that cometh unto me I will no wise cast OUT. It is once you are in YOU ARE IN. Many will cast you out. The woman who washed the feet of Jesus with her tears was an outsider of society. She had to get in. Can you not see her saying to herself "I’ve got to get in, I’ve got to get in. They do not want me in. I just hope he does not cast me out. There she was at the feet of Jesus saying not a word her tears said it all. Let me in, let me in---Please let me in. Into the mercy of God was her desire. The shouting ground was she got in and she will never, never, never get out. Joh 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I [am] in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
Luke 7:36-50
A woman’s hair is her glory yet my eyes do excrete Tears of repentance at the Saviour dusty feet I am a vile bankrupt debtor my voice can not speak Unworthy of forgiveness for which my soul does seeks 2 I can not raise my wicked head both eyes are blind with tears With hope I’ll kiss those precious feet of the one I love and fear Others at this table look down with such disdain My reputation known by all the devout do abstain 3 I break the costly alabaster and anoint my soul delight For he is the only Holy One to save me from this plight Take this beggar’s gift worthless as it may be For your love and mercy can only pardon me 4 They whisper and I know what they do say She is such a sinner he should sent her away But they have not compassion that I long to hear The lyric of forgiveness to fall on desperate ears 5 But the Lamb does speak and closes the gates of hell Which I a loathsome woman deserve so very well Thy sins are forgiven these words come from Mercy’s lips I shake within my frame for all darkness is eclipsed 6 Go in peace go in peace more words from his tongue I still speak not a word but the angels I know have sung My hair now wet with tears of joy I rise and leave this place I am redeemed I raise my head and look upon his face 7 It no longer matters what the Pharisees think of me I was once hell bound but Jesus has set me free It has been years since this happen and I saw the awful cost The feet I kissed and wept on were nailed to the cross
My tears though great wash not away all my debt and shame An alabaster box is bloodless no power to reclaim Yet my hair did wipe the feet that paid the final cost Go in peace go in peace was purchase at the cross
