Introduction
A. In this Passage Paul is writting to the gentiles who for centuries had been excluded from the relationship between God and Isrel.
a.
When God creatad man no person, natinality or reace was supirior to any other.
Even when God chose Isreiel to be His people it was his plan that through them he would bless all the nations of the earth.
B. Unfortenetly the Jews through time viewed themselves as exclusive and created division betweeen themselves and the gentiles.
Jews felt theat they were both morally and ratially more pure than the gentiles.
Unfortenetly the Jews through time viewed themselves as exclusive and created division betweeen themselves and the gentiles.
Jews felt theat they were both morally and ratially more pure than the gentiles.
a.
In Paul’s day, a wall forms a barrier to keep Gentiles out of the inner Jewish courtyards of the temple.
There are notices warning that trespassers will be executed.
Paul calls this ‘the dividing wall of hostility’
C. In This passage Paul is declaring that an outbreak of Peace must occur.
a. the division between the Jew and Gentiles must end. in the Church.
b.
The emphisis is that this Peace is not by circumsision, special diet, or keeping clean.
This peace takes place through Christ;s Death on the cross for both Jews and Gentiles.
b. this Peace is not:
circumsision,
special diet,
or keeping clean.
This peace takes place through Christ’s Death on the cross for both Jews and Gentiles.
I.
The Standing of the Gentiles
This passage begins with a reminder that the believers were no longer strangers, They were on the same team.
A. No Longer
a. forigners
The Focus is before Christ’s death on the cross the gentiles were outside the covenent, they were alians to the People of God.
b.
Strangers
they were strangers and sojouners.
This can be difined as
people that might live alongside them in a countery but are not accual citizens
THis was the position of the Gentiles, but as Paul instructs it is no longer the position.
Paul says they are now “Fellow citizans with the saints”
He is conecting all the People of God together.
Paul used citizanship as an expresive way of telling the truth concering the position of the gentiles in the Kingdom of God.
How does this relate to our contery today?
Too often do Churches take social justace up like imigration Many Independent Baptist Churches might as well be called the first Baptist Church of the Republican Party.
It is not our job to push a political agenda, even if we agree with it, it is our Job to Share the gospel and preach the Gospel
A big hot-button issue in our countery today is imigration and may churches, and even pastors talk about there frustration with it, What a mission field God is bringing to our frount door with imigration
The point that Paul was making here is that all the Christians weather they were Jew or jentile had the same standing with GOd.
Whatever the individual’s social standing is His social standing is the same with God!
B. Are Now
a. Fellow citizans
Although Gentiles used to be outsiders they now belong to God’s family.
God has adopted Jew and Gentile alike through His son Jesues Christ.
b.
Members of God’s Houshold
forigners and alians is a person who has been givin certin priviliges but posess no citizan rights it is this lack of status that paul is addressing here.
Because of Christ’s death on the cross all have the same citizanship rights in The Kingdom of God. and Paul uses this picture to Show that the gentiles are no longer foreigners but are full members of the Houshold of God
II.
The Building of the Church
Eph
“A more litteral rendering of this passage would be “Christ Jesues himself is the cornerstone, and upon Him the aoopstles and prophets built the foundation
A. Cornerstone
a. Jesus Christ
This is yet another proof that The Church was Built upon Christ Himself and not Peter.
“Christ Jesues being the cornerstone.”
The Key is Christ is the rock the cornerstone, this comes from Psal 118:22
Which is reiderated in
Rember When Christ said He would build His church upon himself
B. Foundation
a. Appostles
b.
Prophets
So WHat we see is
1.
Christ is the cornerstone
2. The appostles Built upon the foundation of His cornerstone
3. all other bilivers in the early Church built upon this fondation.
