Paul’s Visions and His Thorn

1 I must go on boasting. Though there is nothing to be gained by it, I will go on to visions and ^arevelations of the Lord. 2 I know a man ^bin Christ who fourteen years ago was ^ccaught up to ^dthe third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, ^eGod knows. 3 And I know that this man was caught up into ^fparadise—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, ^gGod knows— 4 and he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter. 5 On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, ^hexcept of my weaknesses—

Ephesians 3:1-5

The Mystery of the Gospel Revealed

1 For this reason I, Paul, ⁱa prisoner of Christ Jesus ^jon behalf of you Gentiles— 2 assuming that you have heard of ^kthe stewardship of ^lGod’s grace that was given to me for you, 3 ^mhow the mystery was made known to me ⁿby revelation, ^oas I have written briefly. 4 ^pWhen you read this, you can perceive my insight into ^qthe mystery of Christ, 5 which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.
