with Christ (by grace have ye been saved),

6and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus:

7that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus:

8for by grace have ye been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;

9not of works, that no man should glory.

10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God afore prepared that we should walk in them.

11Wherefore remember, that once ye, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called Circumcision, in the flesh, made by hands;

12that ye were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

13But now in Christ Jesus ye that once were far off are made nigh in the blood of Christ.

14For he is our peace, who made both one, and brake down the middle wall of partition,

15having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; that he might create in himself of the two one new man, so making peace;

16and might reconcile them both in one body unto God through the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

17and he came and

preached peace to you that were far off, and peace to them that were nigh:

18for through him we both have our access in one Spirit unto the Father.

19So then ye are no more strangers and sojourners, but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,

20being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief corner stone;
