3 Among whom also we all had our manner of life in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath made us alive together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places, in Christ Jesus:
7 That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness towards us, through Christ Jesus.
8 For by grace are ye saved, through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not by works, lest any man should boast.
