You Who Were Far Off (Eph. 2:11-22)

The thing is, though, you can’t see them from far off. You have to get right up next to people in order to see them, I mean really see them. And by the grace of God and the mystery of Christ, we’ve been brought near enough, according to Paul, to see them no longer as enemies, or aliens, or foreigners, or strangers, but as human beings, as the children for whom God is creating a whole new world.

And it is the one whom I thought was my enemy, the one whom, to me, was a stranger, who is bound with me (walls torn down) to be now the dwelling place of God.
