Ephesians 2
1.And He made you alive, 👉when you were dead in trespasses and sins👈,
2. When you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, according to the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience;⚠️
3. Among whom we also all formerly walked in the desires of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and we were by nature children of wrath, like others too.👈
4. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us,
With God everything changes👇
5. While we were still dead in our trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 🔑🔓
6.And he raised us up together with him and made us sit in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus;
7.To show in the ages to come the exceeding riches of his grace through his kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
8.For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this does not come from you, it is a gift from God.🤔
9.It does not come from works, so that no one can boast;
10.For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
11. Therefore remember that you were once Gentiles in the flesh, and are called uncircumcision by those who in the flesh are called circumcision made by hands;
12. That at that time you were without Christ, separated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world.
13.But now in Christ Jesus you who were once far off have come near through the blood of Christ.
14.For he is our peace, who made one of both peoples; and, tearing down the wall of separation that was in the middle,
15. In his flesh he dissolved the enmity, that is, the law of commandments, which consisted of ordinances, to create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,
16.And through the cross reconcile both with God in one body, putting to death their enmities with it.
17.And coming, he preached peace, to you who were far off, and to those who were near;
18.For through him we both have access to the Father in the same Spirit.
19. So that you are no longer strangers or aliens, but fellow citizens with the saints and of the family of God;
20. Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, of which Jesus Christ is the chief cornerstone;
21.In whom the whole building, when fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
22. In whom also you are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
