Ephesians 4:2-10 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

2. Always be humble and gentle. Be patient and accept each other with love.

3. You are joined together with peace through the Spirit. Do all you can to continue together in this way. Let peace hold you together.

4. There is one body and one Spirit. And God called you to have one hope.

5. There is one Lord, one faith, and one baptism.

6. There is one God and Father of everything. He rules everything. He is everywhere and in everything.

7. Christ gave each one of us a special gift. Each one received what Christ wanted to give him.

8. That is why it says in the Scriptures,“When he went up to the heights,he led a parade of captives.And he gave gifts to people.” Psalm 68:18

9. When it says, “He went up,” what does it mean? It means that he first came down to the earth.

10. So Jesus came down, and he is the same One who went up. He went up above all the heavens. Christ did that to fill everything with himself.
