Joined together in Christ

Today we are continuing our series on Ephesians. In our scripture lesson, we gentiles “strangers to the covenants of promise,” “aliens to the commonwealth of Israel” “have been brought near by the blood of Christ”. Our reconciliation with God is accompanied by reconciliation with others so that there is now “one humanity in place of two.” With the gift of salvation comes the gift of association with all sorts of people.  This morning let’s praise God for graciously including us in this incredibly diverse body of Christ.
