Verse from Ephesians

基督就是我们的和平:他使双方合而为一,拆毁了隔在中间的墙,就是以自己的身体除掉双方的仇恨,(以弗所书 2:14)

For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, (Ephesians 2:14)

In Isaiah’s prophecy of the coming Messiah we read, “His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace” (Isa. 9:6). By His death on the cross, Jesus removed the “no man’s land” between us and God. “For He Himself is our peace” (Eph. 2:14).

In Jesus we can find lasting peace with God and harmony with each other. This is the life-changing message of Christmas!

Hark! The herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King;
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!” —Wesley

Only in Christ can true peace be realized.
