Ephesians 3:3-13

Ephesians 3:3-13

[3] How that  by  revelation  he made known  the mystery;  (as  I wrote afore  in  few words,  [4] Whereby,  when ye read,  ye may  understand  knowledge  in  the mystery  of Christ)  [5] Which  in  other  ages  not  made known  unto the sons  of men,  as  now  revealed  unto his  holy  apostles  and  prophets  by  the Spirit;  [6] That the Gentiles  fellowheirs,  and  of the same body,  and  partakers  promise  in  Christ  by  the gospel:  [7] Whereof  I was made  a minister,  according  to the gift  of the grace  of God  given  by  the effectual working  of his  power.  [8] who am less than the least  of all  saints,  this  grace  given,  that I should preach  the Gentiles  the unsearchable  riches  of Christ;  [9] And  all  men see  what  of the mystery,  which  from  the beginning of the world  hath been hid  in  God,  who  created  all things  [10] To the intent that  now  unto the principalities  and  powers  in  heavenly  places might be known  by  the church  the manifold  wisdom  of God,  [11] According to  the eternal  purpose  which  he purposed  in  Christ  Jesus  Lord:  [12] In  whom  we have  boldness  and  access  with  confidence  by  the faith  of him.  [13] Wherefore  I desire  that ye faint  not  at  tribulations  for  which  glory.
