Ephesians 3:10

Read in context

Ephesians 3:8–12 · Berean Standard Bible

8 Though I am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

9 and to illuminate for everyone the stewardship of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things.

10 His purpose was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms,

11 according to the eternal purpose that He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.

12 In Him and through faith in Him we may enter God’s presence with boldness and confidence.
