Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

WhatsApp Copy

4

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

WhatsApp Copy

5

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

WhatsApp Copy

6

To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

WhatsApp Copy

7

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

WhatsApp Copy

8

Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;

WhatsApp Copy

9

Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

WhatsApp Copy

10

That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

WhatsApp Copy

11

In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

WhatsApp Copy

12

That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

WhatsApp Copy

13

In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

WhatsApp Copy

14

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

WhatsApp Copy

15

Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

WhatsApp Copy

16

Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

WhatsApp Copy

17

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

WhatsApp Copy

18

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

WhatsApp Copy

19

And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

WhatsApp Copy

20

Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

WhatsApp Copy

21

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

WhatsApp Copy

22

And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

WhatsApp Copy

23

Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
