Peace is a Person, not some vain achievement of our so-called intelligence, brilliance; much less, our politics and money! They’ll advertise peace, safety; yet, The Lamb is our Peace!…
Ephesians 2: 11-18 (KJV)
11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands [*natural Jews];
12 That at that time ye [*natural Gentiles] were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off [*natural Gentiles] are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 For he is our [*BOTH ALL natural Jews’ & ALL natural Gentiles’] peace, who hath made both [*ALL natural Jews & ALL natural Gentiles] one [*in Himself, through His Cross!], and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us [*BETWEEN BOTH, ALL natural Jews & ALL natural Gentiles];
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain [*BOTH, ALL natural Jews & ALL natural Gentiles] one new man, so making peace;
16 And that he might reconcile both [*ALL natural Jews & ALL natural Gentiles] unto God in one [*His] body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off [*ALL natural Gentiles], and to them that were nigh [*ALL natural Jews].
18 For through him we both [*ALL natural Jews & ALL natural Gentiles] have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
