You were far off. Now you are near.
Ephesians 2:11–22 is one of the most radical passages in the New Testament. Paul declares that the dividing wall — the hostility that separated Jew and Gentile, insider and outsider — has been torn down by the blood of Christ. And in its place, God is building something new: a temple not made of stone, but of people. His people. With Jesus as the cornerstone.
In this message, Pastor Jimmy walks through what it means to be brought near — united with the faithful saints of every generation, sealed and adopted by God, and built together into a dwelling place for His Spirit.
If you've ever felt like an outsider, like your history disqualifies you, or like you don't belong — this passage is for you.
In this message:
Why your past, your family, and your nation are not your ultimate identity
How Christ's sacrifice unites believers across every generation — Old Testament saints included
What it means that the veil was torn and the dividing wall came down
Why the church is not a building — it's you, and the faithful gathered around you
How to live boldly from a secure identity in Christ
