Chapter 1
Chosen and Sealed
Paul's Greeting
The Spiritual Blessings of Redemption Through Christ
God the Father Planned It
God the Son Provided It
-
7. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of
sins, according to the richness of his grace;
-
Greek
- ἐν ᾧ ἔχομεν τὴν ἀπολύτρωσιν διὰ τοῦ αἵματος αὐτοῦ τὴν ἄφεσιν τῶν παραπτωμάτων κατὰ τὸν πλοῦτον τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ
-
8. Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;
-
Greek
- ἡς ἐπερίσσευσεν εἰς ἡμᾶς ἐν πάσῃ σοφίᾳ καὶ φρονήσει
-
9. Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which
he hath purposed in himself:
-
Greek
- γνωρίσας ἡμῖν τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ κατὰ τὴν εὐδοκίαν αὐτοῦ ἣν προέθετο ἐν αὐτῷ
-
10. That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he
might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on
earth; even in him:
-
Greek
- εἰς οἰκονομίαν τοῦ πληρώματος τῶν καιρῶν ἀνακεφαλαιώσασθαι τὰ πάντα ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ τὰ τε ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς καὶ τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς (1:11) ἐν αὐτῷ
-
11. In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose
of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
-
Greek
- ἐν ᾧ καὶ ἐκληρώθημεν προορισθέντες κατὰ πρόθεσιν τοῦ τὰ πάντα ἐνεργοῦντος κατὰ τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ
-
12. That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
-
Greek
- εἰς τὸ εἶναι ἡμᾶς εἰς ἔπαινον τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ τοὺς προηλπικότας ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ
God the Holy Spirit Applied It
-
13. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your
salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy
Spirit of promise,
-
Greek
- ἐν ᾧ καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀκούσαντες τὸν λόγον τῆς ἀληθείας τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς σωτηρίας ὑμῶν ἐν ᾧ καὶ πιστεύσαντες ἐσφραγίσθητε τῷ πνεύματι τῆς ἐπαγγελίας τῷ ἁγίῳ
-
14.↓ Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession,
unto the praise of his glory.
-
Greek
- ὅς ἐστιν ἀρραβὼν τῆς κληρονομίας ἡμῶν εἰς ἀπολύτρωσιν τῆς περιποιήσεως εἰς ἔπαινον τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ
