Made Alive in Christ

2 And ^[a]you ^[b]were ^(A)dead ^[c]in your offenses and sins, ² in which you ^(B)previously walked according to the ^[d]course of ^(C)this world, according to ^(D)the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in ^(E)the ^[e]sons of disobedience. ³ Among them ^[f]we too all ^(F)previously lived in ^(G)the lusts of our flesh, ^[g]indulging the desires of the flesh and of the ^[h]mind, and were ^(H)by nature ^(I)children of wrath, ^(J)just as the rest. ⁴ But God, being ^(K)rich in mercy, because of ^(L)His great love with which He loved us, ⁵ even when we were ^(M)dead ^[i]in our wrongdoings, made us alive together ^[j]with Christ (^(N)by grace you have been saved), ⁶ and ^(O)raised us up with Him, and ^(P)seated us with Him in ^(Q)the heavenly places in ^(R)Christ Jesus, ⁷ so that in the ages to come He might show the ^[k]boundless ^(S)riches of His grace in ^(T)kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

¹⁷ And ^(A)He came and preached ^(B)peace to you who were ^(C)far away, and peace to those who were ^(D)near; ¹⁸ for through Him we both have ^(E)our access in ^(F)one Spirit to ^(G)the Father. ¹⁹ So then you are no longer ^(H)strangers and foreigners, but you are ^(I)fellow citizens with the ^[a]saints, and are of ^(J)God’s household, ²⁰ having been ^(K)built on ^(L)the foundation of ^(M)the apostles and prophets, ^(N)Christ Jesus Himself being the ^(O)cornerstone, ^21 (P)in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into ^(Q)a holy ^[b]temple in the Lord, ²² in whom you also are being ^(R)built together into a ^(S)dwelling of God in the Spirit.
