Ephesians 2:2-6

2in which you 1previously 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 6sons of disobedience.

3Among them 7we too all 8previously lived in 9the lusts of our flesh, 10indulging the desires of the flesh and of the 11mind, and were 12by nature 13children of wrath, 14just as the rest.

4But God, being 15rich in mercy, because of 16His great love with which He loved us,

5even when we were 17dead 18in our wrongdoings, made us alive together 19with Christ (20by grace you have been saved),

6and 21raised us up with Him, and 22seated us with Him in 23the heavenly places in 24Christ Jesus,
