¶ The .ij. Chapter.
¶ Paul sheweth them what maner of people
they were before theyr conuersyon, and what
they are nowe in Chryst.
A And you hath he quickened where
as ye were deed in treaspasses
and synnes, in the which note in tyme
passed ye walked, accordyng
to the course of this worlde, eu&ebar;
after the gouerner that ruleth in the ayer, the
sprete that nowe worketh in the chyldren of
vnbelefe note amonge whom we all had oure
conuersacyon also in tyme past, in the lustes
of oure flesshe, and fulfylled the wyll of the
flesshe and of the mynde: and &rhand; were by
nature the chyldren of wrath, euen as well
as other.
But God which is riche in mercy (for his
greate loue wher with he loued vs, euen wh&ebar;
we were deed by synnes) quyckened vs together
in Christ ( note by grace are ye saued) and
raysed vs vp together with hym and made
B
vs sytte together with him amonge them of
heauen in Christ Iesu. That in tymes to come
he myght shewe the exceadynge, ryches
of hys grace, in kyndnes to vs warde thorowe
Chryst Iesu. For by grace are ye made
safe thorow fayth, and that not of youre selues.
It is the gyfte of God, and c&obar;meth not
of workes, lest eny m&abar; shulde boast him selfe
For we are his worckmanshyppe, created in
Chryst Iesu vnto note good workes, whiche
God ordeyned, that we shulde walke in th&ebar;.
C Wherfore, remember that ye beynge in tyme
passed gentyls in the flesshe, were called
vncircumcisyon from that whych is called
note circumcisyon in the flesshe, which circumcision
is made by handes: remember (I saye)
that at that tyme ye were without Chryst,
beynge aliauntes from the comen welth of
Israel, and straungers from the testamentes
of the promes hauynge no hope, and beynge
with out God in this worlde. But nowe by
þe; meanes of Christ Iesu, ye which somtyme
were farre of, are made nye by the bloude of
Chryst.
For he is oure peace, which hath made of
both one, and hath broken downe the wall
that was a stoppe betwene vs, and hath also
put awaye thorowe his flesshe, &rhand; the cause
of hatred, euen the lawe of commaundem&ebar;tes
contayned in the lawe wrytten, for to
make of twayne one newe man in hym selfe,
so makynge peace, and to rec&obar;cyle both vnto
God in one body thorowe the crosse, ∧ slewe
hatred therby: and came, and preached peace
to you which were a farre of, and to th&ebar; that
were nye.
D For thorowe hym we both haue
an intraunce, in one sprete vnto the father.
&cross2; Now therfore, ye are not straungers,
and foreyners: but citesyns with the sayntes
∧ of the housholde of God: and are buylt vp&obar;
the note foundacyon of the Apostles and Prophetes, note
Iesus Chryst him selfe beynge the
heed corner stone, in whom what buyldynge
soeuer is coupled together, it groweth vnto
an holy temple in the Lorde, in whom ye also
are buylt together, to be an habitaci&obar; of God
thorowe the (holy) ghost. &cross3;
