Jew and Gentile - One Body in Christ Ephesians 2:14

Good morning my fellow Christians!  God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

   The Jews and Gentiles are one in the body of Christ.  Ephesians 2:14 "For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;"

  For he is our peace - He Himself, not what He did, is our peace with  God and with each other.

Who hasth made both one - Jews and Gentiles united in position and privilege. This is a new unity where race and national differences disappear in Christ (Gal 3:28)

Hath broken down the middle wall of partition - Racial and religious differences is not longer a dividing point and it has been destroyed forever.  In the Temple courts a partition wall divided the court of the Gentiles from the court of Israel with an inscription forbidding a Gentile from going further or they would be put to death. This no longer exists. 

What have I been saying?  We are one body in Christ!  We should act as if we are one body in Christ!  Are you better than the man down the street, the homeless? No! Your circumstances are just different, BUT, you are still all ONE BODY IN CHRIST!  Those people out there are your brothers and sisters - start acting like a family!  Welcome them to the family, or if not sure, invite them into the family. Love you all.

 In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
