Ephesians 2:10-22

10For awe are his workmanship, bcreated in Christ Jesus cfor good works, dwhich God prepared beforehand, ethat we should walk in them.

One in Christ

11Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcisionby what is called fthe circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands 12remember gthat you were at that time separated from Christ, halienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to ithe covenants of promise, jhaving no hope and without God in the world. 13But now in Christ Jesus you who once were kfar off have been brought near lby the blood of Christ. 14For mhe himself is our peace, nwho has made us both one and has broken down oin his flesh the dividing wall of hostility 15by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in pordinances, that he might create in himself one qnew man in place of the two, so making peace, 16and might rreconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. 17And he came and spreached peace to you who were tfar off and peace to those who were unear. 18For vthrough him we both have waccess in xone Spirit to the Father. 19So then you are no longer ystrangers and aliens,
Or sojourners
but you are aafellow citizens with the saints and abmembers of the household of God,
20 acbuilt on the foundation of the adapostles and prophets, aeChrist Jesus himself being afthe cornerstone, 21 agin whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into aha holy temple in the Lord. 22In him aiyou also are being built together ajinto a dwelling place for God by
Or in
the Spirit.
