Day 16: What's Still True

“But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.” (Ephesians 2:13) ESV

When there’s a ‘but’ in the Bible, it’s a great thing to read around the verse and have a look at why it’s there. The verse preceding the one above makes these precious words even more significant.

In verse twelve, we as believers are described as ‘having no hope’ and ‘without God in the world’ before coming into relationship with God. For those of us who have been Christians for a while, we can forget that before Him, we literally were of those who had no hope. Our God is one of abundant grace.

The verse I started this thought with is such a wonderful one. We once were far off and distant from God, but because of Christ’s sacrifice, we are now adopted as sons and daughters. When life is full, it can be too much to even take a few moments to remind ourselves of what God has done. for you and thank and praise Him for it!

Food For Thought: What does it mean to you, personally, to have been “brought near” by the blood of Christ?
