King James Bible
"That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus."
Paul points to God's eternal purpose extending through all future ages, not just the present moment. This phrase emphasizes that salvation serves as an everlasting display, suggesting God's redemptive work has cosmic and timeless significance. God intends to exhibit the immeasurable wealth of His unmerited favor as an ongoing demonstration. The term 'exceeding riches' conveys abundance beyond human comprehension, positioning believers as living testimonies to divine generosity. Grace manifests specifically as kindness—gentle, benevolent action—directed personally toward believers and mediated exclusively through Christ. This locates the source and channel of all spiritual blessing in Jesus, making Him central to God's eternal showcase of mercy.
