Mel, thanks for your input on my new blog, "Faith N Fun"...I have enjoyed spending some time reading Ephesians 1:9-12 from different versions and found the NLV (New Life Version)published by Barbour Publishing. Even though this was first printed in 1967, this is the first time I have seen it. It appears to be a "Dumbed Down" version, But it is really fun to read..Here is Eph. 1:9-12 from the NLV..
Ephesians 1:9-12 (New Life Version)
9 God told us the secret of what He wanted to do. It is this: In loving thought He planned long ago to send Christ into the world. 10 The plan was for Christ to gather us all together at the right time. If we are in heaven or still on earth, He will bring us together and will be head over all.
11 We were already chosen to be God's own children by Christ. This was done just like the plan He had. 12 We who were the first to put our trust in Christ should thank Him for His greatness.

Sometimes, yes, it is fun to read. Other times is distressing, seeing the liberties it takes. But, I can't complain too much. There are other versions to cross check with, if we are diligent enough. And it can make it easie to understand, at times.
Thanks to Christ -- for your comment and all else,
Mel

It ain't no secret what God can do..What He's done for others.. He will do for you, & me..
I was always told that books are just for book shelves.. To look pretty on..You don't touch them!.. I still have to force myself to read..I believe because of that..
God's Blessings Mel
LOve!
