Efésios 2

11 So you who are "foreigners" humanly-speaking, called "uncircumcised" by those who are "circumcised"*2:11. That is, the Jews (circumcised) and the Gentiles (uncircumcised). (which is only a procedure carried out by human beings), you need to remember 12 that once you had no relationship to Christ. You were barred as foreigners from being citizens of Israel, strangers to the agreement*2:12 Or "covenant." God had promised. You had no hope and you lived in the world without God. 13 But now, in Christ Jesus, you who were once a long way off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
