What Does Ephesians 6:24 Mean?
Paul ends as he began -- with grace: 'Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ.' The letter that opened in grace closes in grace, framing the whole in God's unearned favor. It is his final and fitting wish for the church.
This grace rests on 'all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity.' The mark of the true believer is sincere love for Christ. To such, Paul pronounces grace, and seals it with 'Amen.' The letter that soared from eternity past to the heavenly places comes to rest at last on love for the Lord Jesus.
