strengthened by his Spirit with might unto the inward man: 3:17. That Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts: that, being rooted and founded in charity, 3:18. You may be able to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 3:19. To know also the charity of Christ, which surpasseth all knowledge: that you may be filled unto all the fulness of God. 3:20. Now to him who is able to do all things more abundantly than we desire or understand, according to the power that worketh in us: 3:21. To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus, unto all generations, world without end. Amen. Ephesians Chapter 4 He exhorts them to unity, to put on the new man, and to fly sin. 4:1. I therefore, a prisoner in the Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the vocation in which you are called: 4:2.

And he gave some apostles, and some prophets, and other some evangelists, and other some pastors and doctors: Gave some apostles--Until we all meet, etc... Here it is plainly expressed, that Christ has left in his church a perpetual succession of orthodox pastors and teachers, to preserve the faithful in unity and truth. 4:12. For the perfecting of the saints, for the word of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 4:13. Until we all meet into the unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the age of the fulness of Christ: 4:14. That henceforth we be no more children tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the wickedness of men, by cunning craftiness by which they lie in wait to deceive. 4:15.
