Ephesian Book_Chapter 1

Paul, who was an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, wrote a letter to the saints in Ephesus, who are faithful in Christ Jesus.

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

Praise be to the Father God of our Lord Jesus Christ, who in Christ has bestowed upon us all spiritual blessings in heaven.

Just as God chose us in Christ before the creation of the world, to make us holy and flawless before Him.

And because of his love for us, he predestined us according to his own will and pleasure, to be named sons through Jesus Christ,

Let his glorious grace be praised. This grace is bestowed upon us by him in his beloved son.

Through the blood of this beloved son, we are redeemed, and our sins are forgiven, according to his abundant grace.

This grace is fully bestowed upon us by God with all his wisdom and wisdom,

All according to his own predetermined beauty, so that we may know the mystery of his will,

As arranged, when the time is fulfilled, all things in heaven and earth shall be one in Christ.

We have also obtained an inheritance in him, which was predetermined by him who did all things according to his will.

Let his glory be praised from us who first have hope in Christ.

Since you have heard the word of truth, which is the gospel that saved you, and have believed in Christ, you have received the promised Holy Spirit as a seal.

This Holy Spirit is the proof of our inheritance, until the people of God are redeemed, so that their glory may be praised.

Therefore, since I have heard that you believe in the Lord Jesus and love all the saints,

I keep thanking God for you, and when I pray, I often mention you.

May the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, reward you with the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may truly know Him.

And light your eyes in your hearts, so that you may know the hope of his calling. What great glory is his inheritance among the saints.

And know how great the power he has shown to us who believe,

It is according to his great power and strength that he worked in Christ, that he was raised from the dead, and that he sat on his right hand in heaven,

Far exceeding all rulers, rulers, capable, rulers, and all famous. Not only in this life, but also in the afterlife.

And he subdued all things under his feet, making him the head of all things for the church.

The church is his body, filled with all things.
