emtv - Ephesians:4:1-16

emtv@Ephesians:4:1 @ Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, urge you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called,

emtv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all humility and meekness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,

emtv@Ephesians:4:3 @ being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

emtv@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling;

emtv@Ephesians:4:5 @ one Lord, one faith, one baptism;

emtv@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.

emtv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of the free gift of Christ.

emtv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore He says: "When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men."

emtv@Ephesians:4:9 @ But that "He ascended"-what is it but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?

emtv@Ephesians:4:10 @ He that descended, He is also the [One] who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.

emtv@Ephesians:4:11 @ And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,

emtv@Ephesians:4:12 @ for the perfecting of the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ,

emtv@Ephesians:4:13 @ until we all arrive to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to [the] measure of [the] stature of the fullness of Christ;

emtv@Ephesians:4:14 @ that we may no longer be infants, being tossed as by waves, and being carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in regard to deceitful scheming,

emtv@Ephesians:4:15 @ but speaking the truth in love, we may grow up in all things into Him who is the head-Christ;

emtv@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the working of the measure of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the edification of itself in love.
