Colossians 1:21-23

New American Standard Bible

²¹ And although you were ^(A)previously alienated and hostile in attitude, engaged in evil deeds, ²² yet He has now ^(B)reconciled you in His ^(C)body of flesh through death, in order to ^(D)present you before Him ^(E)holy and blameless and beyond reproach— ²³ if indeed you continue in ^[a]the faith firmly ^(F)established and steadfast, and not shifting from the ^(G)hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed ^(H)in all creation under heaven, ^(I)and of which I, Paul, ^[b]was made a ^[c](J)minister.
