Ephesians 2:5-10 even when we were dead because of our offenses, made us alive together with the Messiah (by grace you have been saved),

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ even when we were dead because of our offenses, made us alive together with the Messiah (by grace you have been saved), ⁶ raised us up with him, and seated us with him in the heavenly realm in the Messiah Jesus, ⁷ so that in the coming ages he might display the limitless riches of his grace that comes to us through his kindness in the Messiah Jesus. ⁸ For by such grace you have been saved through faith. This does not come from you; it is the gift of God ⁹ and not the result of actions, to put a stop to all boasting. ¹⁰ For we are God’s masterpiece, created in the Messiah Jesus to perform good actions that God prepared long ago to be our way of life.
