Greetings and exhortations...

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. May the Father of glory, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him.
