Created in Christ

('Firmly I believe and truly')

Ephesians 2 v.4-10

*********

Here God, who is rich in mercy

For His great love wherewith He

Loved us, even when we were dead

In sins raised us, Christ our Head

 

For by grace you are saved, and He

Has raised us with Christ, so be

To heavenly places, there we

Sit with Christ, and blessed are, see

 

That in the ages to come He

Might show the exceeding, free

Riches of His grace in kindness

To us in Christ, we confess

 

For by grace we are saved through faith

Not of self, but as God saith

It is His gift, or our works none

But it be through Christ His Son

 

So no one should boast, for we be

His workmanship in Christ, we

By God created in Him to

Do good works God ordained true

                  I wonder if Christ would be cool to hang out with? I mean after all if you're going to spend eternity with someone it would be nice to have something to talk about and do togeather. lol
