| 1 | For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles, | 2Co 10:1 Ga 5:2 |
| 2 | if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you; | Eph 4:21 Ga 1:13 Col 1:4 Col 1:6 2Ti 1:11 |
| 3 | how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words, | Eph 1:17 Ac 22:17 Ac 22:21 Ac 23:9 Ac 26:15-19 1Co 2:9 1Co 2:10 Ga 1:12 Ga 1:16-19 |
| 4 | whereby, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ; | Mt 13:11 1Co 2:6 1Co 2:7 1Co 13:2 2Co 11:6 |
| 5 | which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit; | Eph 3:9 Mt 13:17 Lk 10:24 Ac 10:28 Ro 16:25 2Ti 1:10 2Ti 1:11 Tit 1:1-3 Heb 11:39 Heb 11:40 1Pe 1:10-12 |
| 6 | that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel, | Eph 2:13-22 Ro 8:15-17 Ga 3:26-29 Ga 4:5-7 |
| 7 | whereof I was made a servant, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power. | Eph 3:2 Ro 15:16 2Co 3:6 2Co 4:1 Col 1:23-25 |
| 8 | To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, | Pr 30:2 Pr 30:3 Ro 12:10 1Co 15:9 Php 2:3 1Ti 1:13 1Ti 1:15 1Pe 5:5 1Pe 5:6 |
| 9 | and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ; | Mt 10:27 Mt 28:19 Mk 16:15 Mk 16:16 Lk 24:47 Ro 16:26 Col 1:23 2Ti 4:17 Rev 14:6 |
| 10 | to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places, | Ex 25:17-22 Ps 103:20 Ps 148:1 Ps 148:2 Isa 6:2-4 Ezk 3:12 1Pe 1:12 Rev 5:9-14 |
| 11 | according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus, our Lord; | Eph 1:4 Eph 1:9 Eph 1:11 Isa 14:24-27 Isa 46:10 Isa 46:11 Jer 51:29 Ro 8:28-30 Ro 9:11 2Ti 1:9 |
| 12 | in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him. | Eph 2:18 Jn 14:6 Ro 5:2 Heb 4:14-16 Heb 10:19-22 |
| 13 | Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory. | Dt 20:3 Isa 40:30 Isa 40:31 Zep 3:16 Ac 14:22 Ga 6:9 2Th 3:13 Heb 12:3-5 |
| 14 | For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, | Eph 1:16-19 1Ki 8:54 1Ki 19:18 2Ch 6:13 Ezr 9:5 Ps 95:6 Isa 45:23 Dn 6:10 Lk 22:41 Ac 7:60 Ac 9:40 Ac 20:36 Ac 21:5 |
| 15 | from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, | Eph 1:10 Eph 1:21 Php 2:9-11 Col 1:20 Rev 5:8-14 Rev 7:4-12 |
| 16 | that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man; | Eph 3:8 Eph 1:7 Eph 1:18 Eph 2:7 Ro 9:23 Php 4:19 Col 1:27 |
| 17 | that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love, | Eph 2:21 Isa 57:15 Jn 6:56 Jn 14:17 Jn 14:23 Jn 17:23 Ro 8:9-11 2Co 6:16 Ga 2:20 Col 1:27 1Jn 4:4 1Jn 4:16 Rev 3:20 |
| 18 | may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, | Eph 3:19 Eph 1:18-23 Jb 11:7-9 Ps 103:11 Ps 103:12 Ps 103:17 Ps 139:6 Isa 55:9 Jn 15:13 Ga 2:20 Ga 3:13 Php 2:5-8 Php 3:8-10 1Ti 1:14-16 1Ti 3:16 Tit 2:13 Tit 2:14 Rev 3:21 |
| 19 | and to know Christ`s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled to all the fullness of God. | Eph 3:18 Eph 5:2 Eph 5:25 Jn 17:3 2Co 5:14 Ga 2:20 Php 2:5-12 Col 1:10 2Pe 3:18 1Jn 4:9-14 |
| 20 | Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, | Gn 17:1 Gn 18:4 2Ch 25:9 Jer 32:17 Jer 32:27 Dn 3:17 Dn 6:20 Mt 3:9 Jn 10:29 Jn 10:30 Ro 4:21 Ro 16:25 Heb 7:25 Heb 11:19 Heb 13:20 Heb 13:21 Jm 4:12 Jud 1:24 |
| 21 | to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen. | Eph 1:6 1Ch 29:11 Ps 29:1 Ps 29:2 Ps 72:19 Ps 115:1 Isa 6:3 Isa 42:12 Mt 6:13 Lk 2:14 Ro 11:36 Ro 16:27 Ga 1:5 Php 2:11 Php 4:20 2Ti 4:18 Heb 13:21 1Pe 5:11 Rev 4:9-11 Rev 5:9-14 Rev 7:12-17 |
