God's ultimate plan through Christ is to tear down walls that separate us from Him and from each other. In Ephesians 2, Paul explains that those who were once far from God have been brought near through Christ's sacrifice. Jesus not only died for our sins but also to break down barriers between people groups, specifically Jews and Gentiles. Through Christ, we gain proximity to God, unity with fellow believers, and community as God's household. We are being built together as living stones into a spiritual temple where God dwells, with Christ as the cornerstone of this new structure.
