0724 耶穌是我們的平安

因祂使我們和睦,將兩下合而為一,拆毀了中間隔斷的牆;而且以自己的身體廢掉冤讎,就是那記在律法上的規條,為要將兩下藉著自己造成一個新人,如此便成就了和睦。既在十字架上滅了冤讎,便借這十字架使兩下歸為一體,與神和好了。

以弗所書 2:14-16a

耶穌是我們的平安。祂是我們的安全和寧靜,在我們自己裡面,我們的人際關係里,以及在邦國之間。祂是猶太人和基督徒的沙龍。耶穌說……

這世界想要一種自私的和平——每個人在其中都自行其是。我的平安是意味着放下你自己的道路,那使其他人無法看見我。我的平安是努力拆毀懼怕和偏見的錯謬之牆,讓愛可以建立……

0724 JESUS is our PEACE

JESUS is our PEACE.  He is our security and tranquility both within ourselves, in our relationships, an among the nations.  He is the SHALOM of Jew and Christian.  JESUS says…

The world wants a peace of selfishness–where everyone could get his own way. My peace means putting down your ways which keep others from seeing Me.  My peace is the hard work of tearing down false walls of fear and prejudice, so that love can build…

“For He Himself is our peace, who make both groups into one, and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace, and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross.”

Ephesians 2:14-16a
