"Christ is himself our peace, who has made us both one," Ephesians 2:14.
Both? Both who? Both Jews and ethnics. Jews and Gentiles. The ins and the outs. Christ brought us all peace with each other. Christ broke down dividing walls, killed hostilities, abolished what held us apart. Christ created in himself out of the many, one new man. Christ, by means of his very real body sacrificed on a cross, reconciled aliens and strangers together in one body. And. Too. Also. Additionally. Christ gave to us, once far away but now together in one Spirit, access to the Father. Access to the presence of God. By his Spirit, Christ builds us together into a singular temple, God's own home. Sky kingdom.
We meet with a brother or sister today reconciled with each other in Jesus' cross, accessing God's presence. And, in peace together, we give all praise and glory and honor and worship to God for his amazing grace.
