Ephesians 2:18-19–No Longer Strangers Through His Spirit

Ephesians 2:18-19–"For in Him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.  So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God."

In Christ, we who were far off from God due to the prevalent forces of sin working in our lives, have been brought near to God through the blood of Jesus.  In addition to this, though, our fellowship with God has brought us nearer to one another in Christ.  This is to say that in our becoming children of God by virtue of Jesus, we have become brothers and sisters with all those who have been borne of the blood of the Lamb too.  We should celebrate this truth and all its beauty for it is profound and transformational.  Amen!
