Where we are?  

Ephesians is filled with location words: In, into, with, within, through, etc....

Location, Location, Location – Unity in The Body is Key in the Trumpets Pattern....

The unity of the Spirit Our unity is based on an alien unity—one that comes from outside of ourselves. It’s a gift from the only Father who called us to this one hope (1:18) of unity with and in his only Son through the one Spirit.

Jesus said, I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2

Being in Christ is being united to him and receiving all the blessings that are part of Christ in the heavenly places

We are seated in Heavenly Places in Christ Jesus - Eph 2:6 and invited to come to His throne of grace per Heb 4:16,  8:1, 12:2

Jesus gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father (Gal. 1:4)

 “The overlap of the ages means that Christian existence is characterized by the warfare between them.”3 In Ephesians 1:20–22, we read an announcement about Christ’s incontestable victory over his enemies. In Ephesians 2:5–6, we read about the insoluble connection between Christ and his people. Christ’s authority over all things means that all whose allegiance lies with the rightful King have no need to fear

“You have been raised up with Christ and seated with him in the heavenly places.”

Paul prays for Love in Ephesians 3:17–19:

. . . so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Hebrews and 1 John reveal more details on our fellowship in GOD with Jesus. In Ephesians, Paul has revealed the first 5 Mysteries which God has revealed and made available to The Church.
