God's eternal purpose

by David Long

"and to make all men see what is the dispensation of the mystery which for ages hath been hid in God who created all things; to the intent that now unto the principalities and the powers in the heavenly (places) might be made known through the church the manifold wisdom of God, according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Eph. 3:9-11).
What was God's eternal purpose? It's the church of Christ. The church that Jesus built (Matt, 16:18) is not an after thought of God but it was always His plan to build it. It was not God's plan B but His plan A. God never had a plan B.
