Ephesians 4:6
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
7 Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
8 This is why it says: “When He ascended on high, He led captives away, and gave gifts to men.”
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
