Ephesians 3 — Context

That in the wealth of his glory he would make you strong with power through his Spirit in your hearts;

So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,

May have strength to see with all the saints how wide and long and high and deep it is,

And to have knowledge of the love of Christ which is outside all knowledge, so that you may be made complete as God himself is complete.

Now to him who is able to do in full measure more than all our desires or thoughts, through the power which is working in us,

To him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations for ever and ever. So be it.
