Eph Ephesians, chapter Epistle to the Ephesians, chapter 3
For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles, Act 21:33if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me towards you, Act 9:15; Gal 1:16how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words, Eph 1:9by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ, which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit, 1Pe 1:12that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News, Rom 15:12of which I was made a servant according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power. Act 9:15To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, Rom 15:19; 1Co 15:9; Gal 1:16and to make all men see what is the administration3:9 TR reads “fellowship” instead of “administration” of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ, 1Pe 1:20; Rom 16:25; 1Co 2:7; Col 1:26to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places, 1Pe 1:12according to the eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. In him we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him. Eph 2:18Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.2Ti 2:10
For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, Eph 1:10that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner person, Eph 1:7that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love, Jhn 14:23may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth, and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.Jhn 1:16; Col 2:9
Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, Rom 16:25to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
