Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints who are at Ephesus and are faithful in Christ Jesus:

and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

so that in the ages to come He might show the boundless riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

But now in Christ Jesus you who previously were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

to be specific, that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel,

This was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord,

to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
