01:03 .. blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ .. who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ
01:04 .. just as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world .. that we would be holy and blameless before him In love
01:05 .. he predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to himself .. according to the kind intention of his will
01:06 .. to the praise of the glory of his grace .. which he freely bestowed on us in the beloved
01:07 .. In him we have redemption through his blood .. the forgiveness of our trespasses .. according to the riches of his grace
01:08 .. which he lavished on us .. In all wisdom and insight
01:09 .. he made known to us the mystery of his will .. according to his kind intention which he purposed in him
01:10 .. with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times .. that is .. the summing up of all things in Christ ..
......... things in the heavens and things on the earth .. In him
01:11 .. also we have obtained an inheritance .. having been predestined according to his purpose who works all things after the counsel of his will
01:12 .. to the end that we who were the first to hope in Christ would be to the praise of his glory
01:13 .. In him .. you also .. after listening to the message of truth .. the gospel of your salvation .. having also believed ..
......... you were sealed in him with the Holy Spirit of promise
01:14 .. who is given as a pledge of our inheritance .. with a view to the redemption of God’s own possession .. to the praise of his glory
01:15 .. for this reason I too .. having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which exists among you and your love for all the saints
01:16 .. do not cease giving thanks for you .. while making mention of you in my prayers
01:17 .. that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ .. the Father of glory .. may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him
01:18 .. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened .. so that you will know what is the hope of his calling ..
......... what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints
01:19 .. and what is the surpassing greatness of his power toward us who believe .. these are in accordance with the working of the strength of his might
01:20 .. which he brought about in Christ .. when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places
01:21 .. far above all rule and authority and power and dominion .. and every name that is named .. not only in this age but also in the one to come
01:22 .. and he put all things in subjection under his feet .. and gave him as head over all things to the church
01:23 .. which is his body .. the fullness of him who fills all in all
The believer is vitally united to Jesus Christ by the indwelling Spirit .. through the redemptive work of the cross .. and has in him all spiritual blessings .. including the assurance of an eternal inheritance and the working of his mighty power in and through him . . . v 22-23 Jesus is head of the Church which is his Body and his Bride .. as Eve was of Adam’s body .. yet was his bride .. so the Church born out of his opened side .. is both the Body and the Bride .. this gives him complete disposal of all the affairs of the true Church to the designs of his grace
