by which he hath freely accepted us through the beloved, By whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins,

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

For through him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

For this cause I Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, (Seeing ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God,

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

Whom I have sent to you for this very thing, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
