Ephesians 4:7-13
7Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8This is why it says:1
9What does “He ascended” mean, except that He also descended3 to the lower parts of the earth? 10He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.
11And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, 12to equip the saints for works of ministry and to build up the body of Christ, 13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ.
