The Inclusivity of God's Family
Ephesians 2:19-22 (NLT)
19 So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God’s holy people. You are members of God’s family. 20 Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself. 21 We are carefully joined together in him, becoming a holy temple for the Lord. 22 Through him you Gentiles are also being made part of this dwelling where God lives by his Spirit.
Unlike Abram and Lot, who had to separate due to limited resources, God's household is limitless. There is always room for more in God's family, and His resources are infinite. This inclusivity calls us to share the message of redemption with others, ensuring that no one is left out of God's eternal family. The boundless nature of God's household is a powerful reminder of His love and grace, inviting us to extend that same inclusivity to those around us.
Reflection Question: Consider someone in your life who may feel excluded or marginalized. How can you extend God's inclusive love and invite them into His family today?
