Passage
Ephesians 2:14-16
ESV (English Standard Version)
For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility.
NLT (New Living Translation)
For Christ himself has brought peace to us. He united Jews and Gentiles into one people when, in his own body on the cross, he broke down the wall of hostility that separated us. He did this by ending the system of law with its commandments and regulations. He made peace between Jews and Gentiles by creating in himself one new people from the two groups. Together as one body, Christ reconciled both groups to God by means of his death on the cross, and our hostility toward each other was put to death.
NIV (New International Version)
For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace, and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.
Ask Yourself
"How am I actively participating in reconciliation with indigenous peoples within my community? What steps can I take to acknowledge past wrongs and commit to rebuilding?"
Walk it Out
Reflect
- Meditate on Ephesians 2:14-16 and consider how God's call to reconciliation can transform your relationships and community engagements with indigenous peoples. Take the time to reflect on your own actions and beliefs. Think about your role in fostering understanding and healing.
Engage
- Seek out opportunities to mend fractured relationships or support indigenous initiatives in your community. This could be through heartfelt conversations, acts of service, sharing the Journey with Care National Day for Truth and Reconciliation episode, or participating in the 94 Calls to Action. Engage actively with indigenous communities to help rebuild trust and relationships.
Pray
- Pray for guidance in identifying areas of your life where reconciliation with indigenous peoples is needed.
- Pray for wisdom and courage to acknowledge past wrongdoings and seek to make amends.
- Pray for your heart and the hearts of others to be transformed by God's love and desire for unity.
