Ephesians 4:14 in Context — Ephesians 4

12 pour le perfectionnement des saints en vue de l’œuvre du ministère et de l’édification du corps de Christ,

13 jusqu’à ce que nous soyons tous parvenus à l’unité de la foi et de la connaissance du Fils de Dieu, à l’état d’homme fait, à la mesure de la stature parfaite de Christ,

14 afin que nous ne soyons plus des enfants, flottants et emportés à tout vent de doctrine, par la tromperie des hommes, par leur ruse dans les moyens de séduction,

15 mais que, professant la vérité dans la charité, nous croissions à tous égards en celui qui est le chef, Christ.

16 C’est de lui, et grâce à tous les liens de son assistance, que tout le corps, bien coordonné et formant un solide assemblage, tire son accroissement selon la force qui convient à chacune de ses parties, et s’édifie lui-même dans la charité.
