The Competencies of the Kingdom
Part 3 - Love Others
Ephesians 2
11 Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (which is done in the body by human hands)—
symbol vs. spiritual reality

NT covenant (Jesus’ obedience & performance)
13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,
possible vs. will
