With all spiritual blessings. All came from God, and he has withheld none from those in Christ.
In the heavenly. In the kingdom of heaven.
According as. "Even as," in Revision.
Chosen us in him before the foundation of the world. This does not affirm that God chose some individuals and rejected others, but that before the world was, before there was Jew or Gentile, God chose to have a people for himself, the whole church of Christ, a covenant people confined to no one earthly race.
Holy and without blame. God chose them that they might be holy. Holiness is the proof that a church is a chosen church.
Having predestinated us. Foreordained that we, the church of Jesus Christ, should be adopted as his children. The whole line of argument is general instead of particular. God foreordained a church which should be composed of those adopted as his children.
According to the pleasure of his will. The act of predestination was due simply to God's sovereign will. His will was the cause.
To the praise of the glory of his grace. To the end that his grace in adopting us as children may redound to his praise and glory.
In the beloved. In Christ. See Mat_3:17; Col_1:13.He also gave us holy spirit, this is called spiritual blessing, hallelujaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, i love my life very much, because am working with holy spirit, he is so so good
