Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To God’s holy people in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:

I, Paul, am writing this letter. I am an apostle of Christ Jesus just as God planned. I am sending this letter to you, God’s holy people in Ephesus. Because you belong to Christ Jesus, you are faithful.

To the saints and faithful brothers and sisters in Christ who are at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Timothy, To the church of God which is at Corinth with all the saints who are throughout Achaia:

Paul, called as an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

Paul, an apostle( not sent from men nor through human agency, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),

Paul, a bond servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,

For this reason I have sent to you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, and he will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, just as I teach everywhere in every church.

to all who are beloved of God in Rome, called as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, so that you also may know about my circumstances as to what I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make everything known to you.

Now it happened that while Apollos was in Corinth, Paul passed through the upper country and came to Ephesus, and found some disciples.He said to them,“ Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” And they said to him,“ On the contrary, we have not even heard if there is a Holy Spirit.”And he said,“ Into what then were you baptized?” And they said,“ Into John’s baptism.”Paul said,“ John baptized with a baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in Him who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus.”When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.And when Paul had laid hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying.There were about twelve men in all.And he entered the synagogue and continued speaking out boldly for three months, having discussions and persuading them about the kingdom of God.But when some were becoming hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the people, he withdrew from them and took the disciples away with him, and had discussions daily in the school of Tyrannus.This took place for two years, so that all who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.God was performing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul,so that handkerchiefs or aprons were even carried from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out.But also some of the Jewish exorcists, who went from place to place, attempted to use the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had the evil spirits, saying,“ I order you in the name of Jesus whom Paul preaches!”Now there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, doing this.But the evil spirit responded and said to them,“ I recognize Jesus, and I know of Paul, but who are you?”And the man in whom was the evil spirit, pounced on them and subdued all of them and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.This became known to all who lived in Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks; and fear fell upon them all and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified.Also many of those who had believed kept coming, confessing and disclosing their practices.And many of those who practiced magic brought their books together and began burning them in the sight of everyone; and they added up the prices of the books and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.So the word of the Lord was growing and prevailing mightily.

Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, so that you will be tested, and you will have tribulation for ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.

These will wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are the called and chosen and faithful.”

Now when she and her household had been baptized, she urged us, saying,“ If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay.” And she prevailed upon us.

So then, those who are of faith are blessed with Abraham, the believer.

“ The one who is faithful in a very little thing is also faithful in much; and the one who is unrighteous in a very little thing is also unrighteous in much.

‘ I know where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is; and you hold firmly to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

Therefore there is now no condemnation at all for those who are in Christ Jesus.

It is not this way for My servant Moses; He is faithful in all My household;

and we labor, working with our own hands; when we are verbally abused, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it;
