Ephesians 2:2-6

2in which you 1formerly walked according to the 2course of 3this world, according to 4the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in 5the sons of disobedience.

3Among them we too all 6formerly lived in 7the lusts of our flesh, 8indulging the desires of the flesh and of the 9mind, and were 10by nature 11children of wrath, 12even as the rest.

4But God, being 13rich in mercy, because of 14His great love with which He loved us,

5even when we were 15dead 16in our transgressions, made us alive together 17with Christ (18by grace you have been saved),

6and 19raised us up with Him, and 20seated us with Him in 21the heavenly places in 22Christ Jesus,
