mnt - Ephesians:3:1-13

mnt@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles -

mnt@Ephesians:3:2 @ for surely you have heard of the stewardship of the grace of God entrusted to me for you?

mnt@Ephesians:3:3 @ You have heard how by direct revelation the secret truth was made known to me, as I have already briefly written you.

mnt@Ephesians:3:4 @ By reading what I have written, you can judge of my insight into that secret truth of Christ

mnt@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not disclosed to the sons of men in former generations, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to his holy apostles and prophets,

mnt@Ephesians:3:6 @ namely, that in Christ Jesus the Gentiles form one body with us the Jews, and are coheirs and copartners in the promise, through the gospel.

mnt@Ephesians:3:7 @ It is of this gospel I became a minister according to the gift of the power of the grace of God, bestowed on me by the energy of his power.

mnt@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, who am less than the least of all saints, has this grace been given, that I should proclaim among the Gentiles the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ;

mnt@Ephesians:3:9 @ and should make all men see the new dispensation of that secret purpose, hidden from eternity in the God who founded the universe,

mnt@Ephesians:3:10 @ in order that now his manifold wisdom should, through the church, be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly sphere,

mnt@Ephesians:3:11 @ according to his eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

mnt@Ephesians:3:12 @ In him we have this fearless confidence and boldness of access through our faith in him.

mnt@Ephesians:3:13 @ So I beg you not to lose heart over my tribulations in your behalf; they are your glory.
