according as he had chosen us in him through love, before the foundation of the world was laid, that we should be saints, and without blame before him, through love.

the same in himself to have it declared when the time were full come: that all things, both the things which are in heaven, and also the things which are in earth, should be gathered together, even in Christ. That is to say, in him

in whom we are made heirs, and were thereto predestinate according to the purpose of him which worketh all things after the purpose of his own will:

which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead and set him on his righthand in heavenly things,

And hath put all things under his feet, and hath made him above all things, the head of the congregation:

which is his body, and fullness of him, that filleth all in all things.

For through him we both have an open way in, in one spirit unto the father.

by whom we are bold to draw nigh in that trust, which we have by faith on him.

Unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly, above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

But let us follow the truth in love, and in all things grow in him which is the head, that is to say Christ,

If so be ye have heard of him, and are taught in him, even as the truth is in Jesus:

Let him that stole, steal no more; but let him rather labour with his hands some good thing, that he may have to give unto him that needeth.

And ye masters, do even the same things unto them, putting away threatenings: and remember that even your master also is in heaven, neither is there any respect of person with him.
