20 You will always give thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm,
15 Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!
12 and might thank the Father, who has enabled us to share in the saints’ inheritance in the light.
13 He has rescued us from the power of darkness and has brought us into the kingdom of the Son whom he loves.
14 In him we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
16 For by him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether they are kings, lords, rulers, or powers. All things have been created through him and for him.
17 He himself existed before all things, and by him all things hold together.
