* And you hath he quickened , who were dead in trespasses and sins ; * Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world , according to the prince of the power of the air , the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience : * Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh , fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind ; and were by nature the children of wrath , even as others . * But God , who is rich in mercy , for his great love wherewith he loved us , * Even when we were dead in sins , hath quickened us together with Christ , (by grace ye are saved ;) * And hath raised us up together , and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus : * That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus . * For by grace are ye saved through faith ; and that not of yourselves : it is the gift of God : * Not of works , lest any man should boast . * For we are his workmanship , created in Christ Jesus unto good works , which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them . * Wherefore remember , that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh , who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands ; * That at that time ye were without Christ , being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel , and strangers from the covenants of promise , having no hope , and without God in the world : * But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ .
