(Eph 2:17) “And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.” In contest, it is Christ Who is said to have preached to Jews and Gentiles the Gospel – “Sin has been paid. The way of reconciliation to God has been purchased!” I didn’t see Jesus when the evangelist proclaimed the news to this sinful man, yet….He was there speaking to my heart! Praise God! I believed, repented, and He gave me the Gift of Everlasting Life!
