Ephesians 2

One in Christ

11 Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called "the uncircumcision" by what is called *Rom. 2:26,28;[Col. 2:11,13]the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands— 12 remember *1 Cor. 12:2;[ch. 5:8;Col. 3:7] that you were at that time separated from Christ, *ch. 4:18;Col. 1:21;[Ezek. 14:5;Gal. 2:15;4:8] alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to *See Rom. 9:4the covenants of promise, *1 Thess. 4:13;See ch. 1:18having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were *ver. 17;Acts 2:39far off have been brought near *[Col. 1:20]; See Rom. 3:25by the blood of Christ.
