23. if ye continue in the faith grounded and settled and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard and which is preached to every creature which is under heaven, of which I Paul am made a minister,
24. who now rejoice in my sufferings for you and fulfill in my flesh that which is lacking of the tribulations of the Christ for his body’s sake, which is the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones},
25. of which I am made a minister by the dispensation of God which is given to me in you, to fulfil the word of God,
26. even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints,
27. to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery in the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory,
28. whom we preach, warning every man and teaching in all wisdom that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus,
29. in which I continue to labour, contending according to his operation, which he works in me mightily.
