15. When the Most High gave to the nations
their inheritance, when he divided mankind,
he fixed the borders of the peoples
according to the number of the sons of God.
But the Lord's portion is his people, Jacob
his allotted heritage.
Deuteronomy 32:8-9

17. Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country
[Mesopotamia] and your kindred and your father's
house to the land that I will show you. And I will make
of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your
name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless
those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will
curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be
blessed.

19. God has taken his place in the divine council; in the midst of the gods
he holds judgment: “How long will you judge unjustly and show
partiality to the wicked?” Selah “Give justice to the weak and the
fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.
Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the
wicked.” They have neither knowledge nor understanding, they walk
about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. I said,
“You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you; nevertheless, like
men you shall die, and fall like any prince.” Arise, O God, judge the
earth; for you shall inherit all the nations!

26. RE-CAPITULATION
having made known to us the mystery of His
will, according to His good pleasure which
He purposed in Himself, that in the
dispensation of the fullness of the times He
might gather together in one all things in
Christ, both which are in heaven and which
are on earth—in Him.

30. ...till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the
knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the
measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ...who
is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body,
joined and knit together by what every joint supplies,
according to the effective working by which every
part does its share, causes growth of the body for the
edifying of itself in love.
Ephesians 4:13-16

36. Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of
his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you
may be able to stand against the schemes of the
devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and
blood, but against the rulers, against the
authorities, against the cosmic powers over this
present darkness, against the spiritual forces of
evil in the heavenly places.
