21 You were in the past alienated and enemies because your minds were on your evil works.

22 But he Christ reconciled you in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and without accusation before Him God.

23 Provided that you continue in the faith, grounded on the foundation and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the good news you heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven. For this I,Paul, was made a minister.
