Made Alive in Christ
As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
By Grace Through Faith
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins
in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.
in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience —
But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions — it is by grace you have been saved.
even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ — by grace you have been saved —
And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God —

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands —

For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,
For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility
by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace,
by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,
and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.

In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.
in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
