'God' in the Bible

Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God: To God's people who are in Ephesus--believers in Christ Jesus.

May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has crowned us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ;

For I always beseech the God of our Lord Jesus Christ--the Father most glorious--to give you a spirit of wisdom and penetration through an intimate knowledge of Him,

God has put all things under His feet, and has appointed Him universal and supreme Head of the Church, which is His Body,

which were once habitual to you while you walked in the ways of this world and obeyed the Prince of the powers of the air, the spirits that are now at work in the hearts of the sons of disobedience--to you God has given Life.

But God, being rich in mercy, because of the intense love which He bestowed on us,

At that time you were living apart from Christ, estranged from the Commonwealth of Israel, with no share by birth in the Covenants which are based on the Promises, and you had no hope and no God, in all the world.

thus effecting peace, and to reconcile Jews and Gentiles in one body to God, by means of His cross--slaying by it their mutual enmity.

in whom you also are being built up together to become a fixed abode for God through the Spirit.

if, that is, you have heard of the work which God has graciously entrusted to me for your benefit,

in which I have been appointed to serve, in virtue of the work which God, in the exercise of His power within me, has graciously entrusted to me.

and to show all men in a clear light what my stewardship is. It is the stewardship of the truth which from all the Ages lay concealed in the mind of God, the Creator of all things--

and one God and Father of all, who rules over all, acts through all, and dwells in all.

till we all of us arrive at oneness in faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, and at mature manhood and the stature of full-grown men in Christ.

with darkened understandings, having by reason of the ignorance which is deep-seated in them and the insensibility of their moral nature, no share in the Life which God gives.

with that new and better self which has been created to resemble God in the righteousness and holiness which come from the truth.

And beware of grieving the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you have been sealed in preparation for the day of Redemption.

On the contrary learn to be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ has also forgiven you.

Therefore be imitators of God, as His dear children.

And live and act lovingly, as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up to death on our behalf as an offering and sacrifice to God, yielding a fragrant odor.

For be well assured that no fornicator or immoral person and no money-grubber--or in other words idol-worshipper--has any share awaiting him in the Kingdom of Christ and of God.

Always and for everything let your thanks to God the Father be presented in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Put on the complete armour of God, so as to be able to stand firm against all the stratagems of the Devil.

Therefore put on the complete armour of God, so that you may be able to stand your ground on the day of battle, and, having fought to the end, to remain victors on the field.

and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.

Peace be to the brethren, and love combined with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
