to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.

which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in Christ, things in heaven and things on earth in him.

which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—everything in heaven and on earth.

And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.

as a plan for the right time   — to bring everything together in Christ,  both things in heaven and things on earth  in him.

which is his body,  the fullness  of the one who fills all things  in every way.

that in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him

which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him.

which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we’re a free people—free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all our misdeeds. And not just barely free, either. Abundantly free! He thought of everything, provided for everything we could possibly need, letting us in on the plans he took such delight in making. He set it all out before us in Christ, a long-range plan in which everything would be brought together and summed up in him, everything in deepest heaven, everything on planet earth.

All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ’s body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.

regarding His plan of the fullness of the times, to bring all things together in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth.

which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

with regard to the fulfillment of the times [that is, the end of history, the climax of the ages]—to bring all things together in Christ, [both] things in the heavens and things on the earth.

which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills and completes all things in all [believers].

toward the administration of the fullness of the times, to head up all things in Christ – the things in heaven and the things on earth.

Now the church is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
