Ephesians 2:1-5

And although you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you formerly lived according to this world’s present path, according to the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the ruler of the spirit that is now energizing the sons of disobedience, among whom all of us also formerly lived out our lives in the cravings of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath even as the rest… 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!

The fact that people are born into sin can sometimes become quite the controversial topic. Yet, it is clear that our salvation is a passing from a state of "death" into a state of life. Paul writes, "All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh". Even though we earned the wrath of God, and continue to work out our salvation as believers, He is leading us in that process and has made His home with us via the Holy Spirit. It is by God's GRACE that you are reborn into life with Christ Jesus: alive and free to live for God. Thank you Jesus!
