Coexistence vs. Oneness
- Coexistence in society means tolerance but lacks the deep unity the human heart desires.
- Christianity aims for oneness, a profound unity among people beyond mere tolerance.
Jesus Creates New Humanity
- Jesus creates peace by making Jews and Gentiles one new humanity in Himself.
- This new creation forms one body, the church, transcending coexistence or mere tolerance.
Law's Dividing Wall Abolished
- The law once separated Jews from Gentiles, creating hostility and division.
- Jesus abolished the law's dividing function to unify in grace, not abolishing righteousness but transforming entry into God's people.
