| 4 | even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love: | Dt 7:6 Dt 7:7 Ps 135:4 Isa 41:8 Isa 41:9 Isa 42:1 Isa 65:8-10 Mt 11:25 Mt 11:26 Mt 24:22 Mt 24:24 Mt 24:31 Jn 10:16 Ac 13:48 Ac 18:10 Ro 8:28 Ro 8:30 Ro 8:33 Ro 9:23 Ro 9:24 Ro 11:5 Ro 11:6 2Th 2:13 2Th 2:14 2Ti 2:10 Tit 1:1 Tit 1:2 Jm 2:5 1Pe 1:2 1Pe 2:9 |
| 5 | having foreordained us unto adoption as sons through Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, | Eph 1:11 Ro 8:29 Ro 8:30 |
| 6 | to the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved: | Eph 1:7 Eph 1:8 Eph 1:12 Eph 1:14 Eph 1:18 Eph 2:7 Eph 3:10 Eph 3:11 Pr 16:4 Isa 43:21 Isa 61:3 Isa 61:11 Jer 33:9 Lk 2:14 Ro 9:23 Ro 9:24 2Co 4:15 Php 1:11 Php 4:19 2Th 1:8-10 1Ti 1:14-16 1Pe 2:9 1Pe 4:11 |

| 10 | unto a dispensation of the fulness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things upon the earth; in him, [I say,] | Isa 2:2-4 Dn 2:44 Dn 9:24-27 Am 9:11 Mic 4:1 Mic 4:2 Mal 3:1 1Co 10:11 Ga 4:4 Heb 1:2 Heb 9:10 Heb 11:40 1Pe 1:20 |
| 11 | in whom also we were made a heritage, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his will; | Eph 1:14 Ps 37:18 Ac 20:32 Ac 26:18 Ro 8:17 Ga 3:18 Col 1:12 Col 3:24 Tit 3:7 Jm 2:5 1Pe 1:4 1Pe 3:9 |
| 12 | to the end that we should be unto the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ: | Eph 1:6 Eph 1:14 Eph 2:7 Eph 3:21 2Th 2:13 |
| 13 | in whom ye also, having heard the word of the truth, the gospel of your salvation,-- in whom, having also believed, ye were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, | Eph 2:11 Eph 2:12 Col 1:21-23 1Pe 2:10 |
| 14 | which is an earnest of our inheritance, unto the redemption of [God`s] own possession, unto the praise of his glory. | Ro 8:15-17 Ro 8:23-17 2Co 1:22 2Co 5:5 Ga 4:6 |
| 15 | For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love which [ye show] toward all the saints, | Col 1:3 Col 1:4 Phm 1:5 |
| 16 | cease not to give thanks for you, making mention [of you] in my prayers; | Ro 1:8 Ro 1:9 1Sa 7:8 1Sa 12:23 Php 1:3 Php 1:4 Col 1:3 1Th 5:17 2Th 1:3 |
| 17 | that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; | Eph 1:3 Jn 20:17 |
| 18 | having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, | Eph 5:8 Ps 119:18 Isa 6:10 Isa 29:10 Isa 29:18 Isa 32:3 Isa 42:7 Mt 13:15 Lk 24:45 Ac 16:14 Ac 26:18 2Co 4:4 2Co 4:6 Heb 10:32 |
| 19 | and what the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might | Eph 2:10 Eph 3:7 Eph 3:20 Ps 110:2 Ps 110:3 Isa 53:1 Jn 3:6 Ac 26:18 Ro 1:16 2Co 4:7 2Co 5:17 Php 2:13 Col 1:29 Col 2:12 1Th 1:5 2Th 1:11 Jm 1:18 |
| 20 | which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly [places], | Eph 2:5 Eph 2:6 Ro 6:5-11 Php 3:10 1Pe 1:3 |
| 21 | far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: | Php 2:9 Php 2:10 Col 2:10 Heb 1:4 |
| 22 | and he put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things to the church, | Gn 3:15 Ps 8:6-8 Ps 91:13 1Co 15:25-27 Heb 2:8 |
| 23 | which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. | Eph 2:16 Eph 4:4 Eph 4:12 Eph 5:23-32 Ro 13:5 1Co 12:12-27 Col 1:18 Col 1:24 Col 3:15 |
