But now in Christ you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For He Himself is our peace who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall. Ephesians 2:13-14
Jesus came to earth to break down the walls that divided Jews, Gentiles, races, philosophies, and religions. His desire was to make many groups into one body. It must seem weird that as Jesus tore down walls, His followers are proficient as wall builders. As we look over the walls we have built and see nasty people who need help, perhaps we are the ones that need the help first and foremost. When we decide to build another wall, we need to make sure that wall is not between us and Jesus, and find ourselves in a labyrinth maze of confusion.
