Pericope: Ephesians 2:5-10 - 5 made us alive with Christ even

when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have

been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us

with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in

the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his

grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. 8 For it is

by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from

yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one

can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ

Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to

do.
