Ephesians 1: 3 - 10
|
| 3
|
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,
|
| 4
|
even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.
|
| 5
|
He destined us in love to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,
|
| 6
|
to the praise of his glorious grace which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.
|
| 7
|
In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace
|
| 8
|
which he lavished upon us.
|
| 9
|
For he has made known to us in all wisdom and insight the mystery of his will, according to his purpose which he set forth in Christ
|
| 10
|
as a plan for the fulness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.
