Scripture of the Day - February 1, 2012

Ephesians 2:14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:


Here we have a perfect example of God Almighty reconciling us to HIMSELF. He, who did no wrong, made peace with us. He abolished the enmity between us and Him by coming in the flesh and paying the price for us on the cross. He fulfilled the law so that we are reconciled to God through faith in Jesus, not through works. Both Jew and Gentile now have access to the throne, through Jesus, our High Priest. All are welcome!! The good news of Jesus Christ is to whosoever will. What an awesome God!!
