tcent - Ephesians:2:1-10

tcent@Ephesians:2:1 @ And you were dead in your trespasses and sins,

tcent@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

tcent@Ephesians:2:3 @ Among them we all once lived in the lusts of our flesh, following the desires of flesh and mind, and so we were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.

tcent@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us,

tcent@Ephesians:2:5 @ even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

tcent@Ephesians:2:6 @ and raised us up with him, and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

tcent@Ephesians:2:7 @ so that in the coming ages he might show the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

tcent@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God

tcent@Ephesians:2:9 @ not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.

tcent@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we would walk in them.
