"who is the down payment of our inheritance, until the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory."
— Ephesians 1:14, NET Bible
“Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.”
“which is an earnest of our inheritance, unto the redemption of God’s own possession, unto the praise of his glory. ”
“who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God's own possession, to the praise of his glory.”
“Who is the pledge of our inheritance, unto the redemption of acquisition, unto the praise of his glory.”
“Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.”
“Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.”
In Christ we too have been claimed as God’s own possession, since we were predestined according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of his will
so that we, who were the first to set our hope on Christ, would be to the praise of his glory.
And when you heard the word of truth(the gospel of your salvation)– when you believed in Christ– you were marked with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit,
who is the down payment of our inheritance, until the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.
