In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace

also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will,

even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;

But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.

if indeed you have heard of the stewardship of God’s grace which was given to me for you;

in whom we have boldness and confident access through faith in Him.

Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called,

and they, having become callous, have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness.

if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus,

He who steals must steal no longer; but rather he must labor, performing with his own hands what is good, so that he will have something to share with one who has need.

I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know about us, and that he may comfort your hearts.
