Ephesians 2:1-10

Saved by Grace

Ephesians 2:1-10

Life in Sin and Spiritual Death

1
Also you--being dead in the trespasses and the sins,
2
in which once ye did walk according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience,
3
among whom also we all did walk once in the desires of our flesh, doing the wishes of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath--as also the others,

Salvation is by God's Grace

4
and God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,
5
even being dead in the trespasses, did make us to live together with the Christ, (by grace ye are having been saved,)
6
and did raise us up together, and did seat us together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7
that He might show, in the ages that are coming, the exceeding riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus,
8
for by grace ye are having been saved, through faith, and this not of you--of God the gift,
9
not of works, that no one may boast;
10
for of Him we are workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God did before prepare, that in them we may walk.
