AI-assisted, sourcedEphesians 1:3-14Every spiritual blessing in Christ
About Ephesians 1Paul blesses "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ": he "hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world," predestinated us "unto the adoption of children," and in Christ "we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins." Those who believed were "sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance." Paul prays that they may receive "the spirit of wisdom and revelation" and know "the hope of his calling" and the power God showed when "he raised him from the dead," setting Christ "head over all things to the church, Which is his body."
