Jesus did some renos in the Jerusalem temple. There was a wall there with a warning carved into it. Any Gentile who crossed it faced death.
Paul says Jesus tore that wall down. Demolished it by the cross.
If we're honest, the church probably still has some renovations in order. Too many walls, too many gaps.
Jesus came with peace. He wants us to be ambassadors of that message.
This week's devotional looks at what the cross actually accomplished — not just reconciling us to God, but reconciling us to each other. And what it means to be part of a building still under construction.
"For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility." — Ephesians 2:14 NIV
