SCRIPTURE

"For he is our peace, who made both one, and brake down the middle wall of partition, having abolished in the flesh the enmity, [even] the law of commandments [contained] in ordinances; that he might create in himself of the two one new man, [so] making peace;" — Ephesians 2:14-15 (ASV)

He has swept away all the ordinances which divided us, and we are now one in him.
