L: Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with
every spiritual blessing.
P: For he has made known to us in all wisdom and insight the mystery of his will,
according to his purpose which he set forth in Christ.
L: For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift
of God.
U: Until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to
mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
