Colossians 1:24-29

24Now, I rejoice in sufferings for you, and I fill up that which is behind of the tribulations of Christ in my flesh, for his body, which is the assembly; 25of which I became minister, according to the dispensation of 1God which [is] given me towards you to complete the word of 2God, 26the mystery which [has been] hidden from ages and from generations, but has now been made manifest to his saints; 27to whom 3God would make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you the hope of glory: 28whom we announce, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, to the end that we may present every man perfect in Christ. 29Whereunto also I toil, combating according to his working, which works in me in power.
