2.    What is the evidence that we were spiritually dead? What role does Satan play?


3.    Read Ephesians 2:4-7. What is the attribute of God that motivates Him toward mercy and kindness to lost sinners? What is the significance of the progression in verses 5-7? 


4.    Read Ephesians 4:8-10. Describe grace in your own words. According to this passage, what is necessary for a person to receive the gift of salvation? 


5.    Discuss the difference between working/earning your salvation versus receiving it as a gift. Which one does this passage teach?
