Colossians 1:21-25

²¹You, being in past times alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil works, ²²yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and blameless before him, ²³if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven; of which I, Paul, was made a servant.

²⁴Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body`s sake, which is the assembly; ²⁵of which I was made a servant, according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you, to fulfill the word of God,
