Outline of Ephesians
Key verses
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Well-known verses in Ephesians
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil.
Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
