Iivesi zeBhayibhile ezithandwayo ezisuka Ephesians 2

For we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works that God prepared beforehand so we may do them.

For by grace you are saved through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God; it is not from works, so that no one can boast.

But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us, even though we were dead in transgressions, made us alive together with Christ – by grace you are saved!

and he raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus

So then you are no longer foreigners and noncitizens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of God’s household, because you have been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone.
