Ephesians 2:10-12
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
10 For we are His workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared-beforehand in order that we might walk in them.
So Remember Your Hopeless Condition As Gentiles Without Christ And God’s Promises
11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh— the ones being called “the uncircumcised” by the one being called “the circumcised” (one done-by-human-hands in the flesh)— 12 that you were at that time without Christ, having been excluded from the citizenship[a] of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without-God in the world.
