13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
14 For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility
15 by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,
16 and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility.
17 And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.
18 For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.
19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,
20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,
21 in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.
Peace is a major theme in the Bible. It is rooted in the character and nature of God. Yet what ever God does there is a possible counterfeit for it.
They have healed the wound of my people lightly,
saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
Satan and his minions promise peace but they never deliver. Just because someone preaches peace doesn’t mean their plan produces real peace. Not ever news that sounds good is really good.
The cross of Jesus is the only avenue to peace with God and man.
