At one time we too
were foolish,
Disobedient,
Deceived
and Enslaved
by all kinds of passions and pleasures.​

 
We lived in malice and envy,
being hated
and hating one another.

 
But
when the kindness and love of God our Savior
appeared,
He saved us,
not because
of righteous things
we had done,
but because
of His mercy.

 
Titus 3:3-5
