Colossians 1:12

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD.

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.

The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.

I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king’s matter.
