Ephesians 2:1-2 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. At one time you were like a dead person because of the things you did wrong and your offenses against God.

2. You used to live like people of this world. You followed the rule of a destructive spiritual power. This is the spirit of disobedience to God’s will that is now at work in persons whose lives are characterized by disobedience.
