Eph 2:3 | MHM | STEP | v. 3 : Paul adds that this was true for everyone, including the Jews: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past (Ephesians 2:3 ). By nature, all people want to satisfy their sinful desires, both in body and mind. People naturally do what their sinful hearts want, becoming slaves to their passions and bad thoughts. Because of this, we are all by nature the children of wrath, even as others . This means everyone, no matter their background, deserves God’s anger and judgment because of sin. But, as Paul will show, God’s grace can change this sad condition for anyone who believes in Jesus.
