Is the battle worth
the fight?
YES!
6
to the praise of his glorious grace, which he
has freely given us in the One he loves.
7
In him we have redemption through his
blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace
8
that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding,
9
he made known to
us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in
Christ,
10
to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment-to bring
unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.
11
In him we were also
chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out
everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,
12
in order that we, who
were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.
13
And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the
gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a
seal, the promised Holy Spirit,
14
who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God's possession-to the praise of his
glory.
YES!
6
and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God
and Father-to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.
10
You have made them to be a kingdom and
priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.
