Both Jew and Gentile have become One New Person in Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:11-22

~ Robert Spiller

Pause for Thought

Sometimes it is helpful to remember what a hopeless condition we were in before we first believed. Now because of Christ we are partakers with all Gods people of Gods covenant promises and we are included in the commonwealth of Israel. Once we were far off but now we have been brought near by the blood of Jesus Christ 2:12-13.

In Christ there is no longer Jew or Gentile but One new Man created in Christ Jesus. Only New Creations are Kingdom people! Praise the Lord for His amazing grace! 2:15, 2 Corinthians 5:17.

We have been built on the foundation of the Apostles and of the prophets I think this refers to those who were inspired as they wrote the bible. The New Testament Apostles and the Old Testament Prophets. Present day apostles and prophets do not add to scripture or build new foundations for the church these are already built 2:20 There is an ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in which He continues to fit us all together!

memory verse

By His death He ended the whole system of Jewish Law that excluded the Gentiles. His purpose was to make peace between Jews and Gentiles by creating in Himself one new person from the two groups Ephesians 2:15
