Ephesians 2:1-22
One of the many great things to take away from these verses is the reminder of how God brought the Jews and the Gentiles together. We are one. As people, especially as Christians we should have a common goal of reaching out to others and leading them to Christ. We are reminded that we were saved by Gods grace and we can take no credit for our salvation for it is a free gift that only God can give. These verses will remind us also that we, the people, are the church. We are to join together with other Christians and Christ is to be the cornerstone. Christ brought us together by his death on the cross. Occasionally, you will hear of churches dividing and splitting up over disagreements that get blown out of proportion, so let me repeat what Ephesians 2:16 says, -Christ brought us together by his death on the cross. Think about that. if you are in a dispute with another believer of Christ, I do pray that you seek God for a solution because there are souls that need to be reached today.
My advice for you is to read the scriptures on your own and seek God's Wisdom on the things you do not fully understand.
