* 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 . * For he is our peace , who hath made both one , and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us ; * Having abolished in his flesh the enmity , even the law of commandments contained in ordinances ; for to make in himself of twain one new man , so making peace ; * And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross , having slain the enmity thereby : * And came and preached peace to you which were afar off , and to them that were nigh . * For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father . * Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners , but fellowcitizens with the saints , and of the household of God ; * And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets , Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone ; * In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord : * In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit .
