Ephesians 2:5

for this son of mine was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.’ And they began to celebrate.

“But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are.”

And you were dead in your transgressions and sins,

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;

And you being dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive with Him, having graciously forgiven us all our transgressions.
