Paul paints the stark reality of our natural condition: dead in trespasses and sins, walking according to the course of this world, enslaved to the flesh, and by nature children of wrath. Then come the two most powerful words in Scripture: “But God.” Rich in mercy and great in love, God made us alive together with Christ, raised us up with Him, and seated us in the heavenly places.
Salvation is by grace through faith, not of ourselves or our works, so that no one can boast. We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for the good works He prepared beforehand. A clear and foundational explanation of the Gospel and the power that makes dead sinners alive.
