Ephesians 2 · Grade 4

His Workmanship

Name Date

Read and Think

Paul describes life without God. You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins. People followed the ways of this world. But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us, made us alive together with Christ.

Then Paul explains how this happens: for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast. Grace means God's kindness that we do not earn. Good works do not save us, but God made us for good works. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works.

Gentiles once were far from God's promises. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made near in the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of separation. Jews and Gentiles are fellow citizens and members of God's household. Christ Jesus himself is the chief cornerstone of this holy temple.
