3. among whom we also all once had our conversation in the lusts of our flesh, doing what the flesh and the thoughts willed to do, and were children, by nature, of wrath, even as the rest:
4. but God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love wherewith he loved us,
5. (we too being dead in offences,) has quickened us with the Christ, (ye are saved by grace,)
6. and has raised us up together, and has made us sit down together in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus,
7. that he might display in the coming ages the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness towards us in Christ Jesus.
