Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through Christ has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm.

Through him he chose us out before the creation of the world, to be consecrated and above reproach in his sight in love.

He foreordained us to become his sons through Jesus Christ, in fulfilment of his generous purpose,

so that we might praise the splendid blessing which he has given us through his beloved Son.

It is through union with him and through his blood that we have been delivered and our offenses forgiven,

and in arranging, when the time should have fully come, that everything in heaven and on earth should be unified in Christ??11 the Christ through whom it is our lot to have been predestined by the design of him who in everything carries out the purpose of his will,

You also have heard the message of the truth, the good news of your salvation, and believed in him, and through union with him you have been marked with the seal of the holy Spirit that was promised,

The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, grant you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation through the knowledge of himself,

he made us, dead as we were through our offenses, live again with the Christ. It is by his mercy that you have been saved.

And he raised us with Christ, and through our union with Christ Jesus made us sit down with him in heaven,

to show the incomparable wealth of his mercy throughout the ages to come by his goodness to us through Christ Jesus.

For it is by his mercy that you have been saved through faith. It is not by your own action, it is the gift of God.

For he has made us, creating us through our union with Christ Jesus for the life of goodness which God had predestined us to live.

But now through your union with Christ Jesus you who were once far away have through the blood of Christ been brought near.

and through his human nature put an end to the feud between us, and abolished the Law with its rules and regulations, in order to make peace and create out of the two parties one new man by uniting them with himself,

for it is through him that we both with one Spirit are now able to approach the Father.

Through him every part of the building is closely united and grows into a temple sacred through its relation to the Lord,

and you are yourselves built up into a dwelling for God through the Spirit.

(which in past ages was not disclosed to mankind as fully as it has now been revealed through the Spirit to his holy apostles and prophets)

that through union with Christ Jesus the heathen are fellow-heirs with the Jews, belong to the same body and share the promise with them, through the good news

so that the many-sided wisdom of God may now through the church be made known to the rulers and authorities in heaven,

Through union with him and through faith in him, we have courage to approach God with confidence.

and beg him out of his wealth of glory to strengthen you mightily through his Spirit in your inner nature

and through your faith to let Christ in his love make his home in your hearts. Your roots must be deep and your foundations strong,

be glory through the church and through Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever. Amen.

Make every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit through the tie of peace.

We must not be babies any longer, blown about and swung around by every wind of doctrine through the trickery of men with their ingenuity in inventing error.

For it is under his control that the whole system, adjusted and united by each ligament of its equipment, develops in proportion to the functioning of each particular part, and so builds itself up through love.

You must lay aside with your former habits your old self which is going to ruin through its deceptive passions.

You must be kind to one another, you must be tender-hearted, and forgive one another just as God through Christ has forgiven you.

to consecrate her, after cleansing her with the bath in water through her confession of him,

Henceforth you must grow strong through union with the Lord and through his mighty strength.
