Ephesians 1:4-14
[SUP]4 [/SUP] just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,
[SUP]5 [/SUP] having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
[SUP]6 [/SUP] to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He has made us accepted in the Beloved.
[SUP]7 [/SUP] In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace
[SUP]8 [/SUP] which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
[SUP]9 [/SUP] having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself,
[SUP]10 [/SUP] that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth--in Him.
[SUP]11 [/SUP] In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,
[SUP]12 [/SUP] that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
[SUP]13 [/SUP] In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
[SUP]14 [/SUP] who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.
