- But God is rich in his mercy, and because he had such great love for us, he brought us to life with Christ when we were already dead through sin—it is by grace that you have been saved.
- For it is by grace that you have been saved through faith. This has not come from you but from the gift of God. It does not come from works, so that no one can boast.
- For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for a life of good works that God had prepared for us to do.
- But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were far off have been brought near through the blood of Christ.
- As a result, you are no longer strangers and foreigners. Rather, you are fellow citizens of the saints and members of the household of God, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone.
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts:
he is the King of glory. Selah Do not let kindness and fidelity leave you;
fasten them around your neck
and inscribe them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will gain favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.Next verse!With image
