And you also were included in Christ
when you heard the word of truth,
the gospel (Best News Ever) of your
salvation. Having believed, you were
marked in Him with a seal, the promised
Holy Spirit, Who is a deposit guaranteeing
our inheritance until the redemption of those
who are God’s possession- to the praise of
His glory.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the
will of God, and Timothy our brother,
To the holy and faithful brothers and
sisters in Christ at Colosse:
Grace and peace to you from God our
Father.
We always thank God, the Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,
because we have heard of the love you
have for all the saints- the faith and love
that spring from the hope that is stored up
for you in heaven and that you have already
heard about in the word of truth, the gospel
(Best News Ever) that has come to you.
All over the world this gospel is bearing
fruit and growing, just as it has been doing
among you since the day you heard it and
understood God’s grace in all its truth.
You learned it from Epaphras, our dear
fellow servant, who s a faithful minister
of Christ on our behalf, and who also
told us of your love in the Spirit.
For this reason, since the day we
heard about you, we have not
stopped praying for you and asking
God to fill you with the knowledge of
His will through all spiritual wisdom
and understanding.
And we pray this in order that you may
live a life worthy of the Lord and may
please Him in every way:
bearing fruit in every good work,
growing in the knowledge of God,
being strengthened with all power
according to His glorious might so
that you may have great endurance
and patience, and joyfully giving
thanks to the Father Who has
qualified you to share in the
inheritance of the saints in the
kingdom of light.
For He has rescued us from the
dominion of darkness and brought us
into the kingdom of the Son He loves,
in Whom we have redemption, the
forgiveness of sins.
He is the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn over all creation.
For by Him all things were created:
things in heaven and on earth,
visible and invisible, whether thrones
or powers or rulers or authorities;
all things were created by Him and for Him.
He is before all things, and in Him all things
hold together.
And He is the head of the body, the church;
He is the beginning and firstborn from among
the dead, so that in everything He might have
the supremacy. For God was pleased to have
all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him
to reconcile to Himself all things, whether
things on earth or things in heaven, by making
peace through His blood, shed on the cross.
(Colossians 1.1-20).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
In His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living
hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade-
kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by
God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to
be revealed in the last time. In this you greatly rejoice, though
now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds
of trials. These have come so that your faith- of greater worth
than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire- may be
genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus
Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen Him, you love Him;
and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and
are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving
the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
(I.Peter 1.3-9).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

I also pray that the eyes of your heart may
be enlightened in order that you
may know the hope to which He has called you,
the riches of His glorious
inheritance in the saints, and His incomparably
great power for us who believe.
(Ephesians 1.18).

In Christ Jesus we also were made God’s heritage
and we obtained an inheritance; for we had been
foreordained in accordance with His purpose, Who
works out everything in agreement with the counsel
and design of His will,
So that we who first hoped in Christ live for the praise
of His glory!
((Ephesians 1.11 &12).

“All things work together for good to them that love God
and who are called according to His purpose.”
(Romans 8.28).
The ultimate good is our being in Christ eternally.The Good
in all waiting and wanting for the Redemption is being with
our Redeemer. The very love of God towards us assures us
that all will be well.
Everything Works together in harmony to the ultimate goal
of God’s purpose for us and His creation. God’s purpose is
to accomplish our Redemption.
“May blessing be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ Who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual
blessing in the heavenly realm!
Even as He chose us in Christ before the foundation of the
world, that we should be holy and blameless in His sight,
even above reproach, before Him in love.
For He foreordained us to be adopted as His own children
through Jesus Christ, in accordance with the purpose of His
will to the praise and commendation of His glorious grace,
which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.
In Him we have Redemption through His blood, the forgiveness
of our offenses, in accordance with the riches and the generosity
of His gracious favor,
Which He lavished upon us in every kind of wisdom and understanding,
Making known to us the mystery of His will in accordance with His good
pleasure which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him,
He planned for the maturity of the times and climax of the ages to unify
all things and head them up and consummate them in Christ, both things
in heaven and on the earth.
In Him we also were made God’s heritage and we obtained an inheritance;
for we had been chosen and appointed beforehand in accordance with His
purpose, Who works out everything in agreement with the counsel and
design of His will,
So that we who first hoped in Christ (who first put our confidence in Him
have been destined and appointed to live for the praise of His glory!
In Him you also have heard the Word of Truth, the glad tidings (Gospel)
of your salvation, and have believed in and adhered to and relied on Him,
were stamped with the seal of the long-promised Holy Spirit.
The Spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance, in anticipation of its full
redemption and our acquiring complete possession of it- to the praise
of His glory!”
(Ephesians 1.3-14).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
We discover and worship the Only True God and Jesus Christ
through His Holy Spirit Who is the guarantee of our inheritance
to the praise of His glory which He has purposed and promised
all along.
The revelation of His divine and eternal purpose is to unite everything
under Christ Jesus in the unique unity of the Holy Trinity. This is the
glory of the children of God full of joy beyond words and extreme glory.
In His love He has provided us the eternal opportunity to belong to Him
and be in Him so we can live with Him forever in divine love and glory.
HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
