21 And you, who once were alienated and hostile in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled

22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and without blemish, and above reproach in His sight;

23 if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under Heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a minister.
