Before Jesus came into the world, there were two peoples at enmity - Jews and Gentiles. We, who are not descendants of Abraham by blood, were in the group of Gentiles. But today, there is no longer this separation before the Lord, because Christ came so that every man might be born again in Him: For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation (Ephesians 2.14).

Both Gentiles and Jews need to learn that Jesus came to restore man's communion with God through conversion to the Gospel. Then these two peoples became equal in Christ. For centuries, the sons of Ishmael and Isaac have been fighting over something that is not the Lord's will. As a result, innocent people die who haven't even begun to live, and worse, without salvation

The church fails when it doesn't try hard enough to announce to the world the Good News of what Jesus has done on behalf of everyone, and then hatred escalates. We can't leave it to others to do the work, because we will be held accountable by God for the task He has given us: And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.  (Mark 16.15,16)

The Lord had greater purposes than giving salvation to those who believed in Christ; after all, His feelings are perfect. Unfortunately, fallen man didn't understand how he should act. In his death, Christ did more: having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace (Ephesians 2.15) He hasn't changed His plan, so let's do our part?

As a born-again Christian, you can't wish death on anyone. Now, how to do the work if the world is divided into religious factions? You see, this is one of the Holy Spirit's missions: And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment (John 16.8) So it's time for the Holy Spirit to use us to minister the Good News to the people, and He will convince everyone of the Truth.

Before Christ returns, the world will know the true power of God, which will sweep through all nations, convincing the lost of their need to be born again. Thus, we will see Jews preaching the Word to the Arabs, and they will rejoice in the seed of faith in Christ. This is not utopia, but the truth that everyone needs to believe. Without the new birth, no one will enter the eternal Kingdom of the Father.

        The revelation that the Spirit of God gave Paul is to kill enmity. It will cease to exist with the anointing to be poured out on the world. It will be the greatest revival of all time. Those who are alive in those days will also consecrate themselves, seeking the oil for D-Day, which will come when no one is waiting. Without the Holy Oil, you will not enter the Glory of the Father (Matthew 25.1-13).

           In Christ, with love,
