"The Third Nation" (Ephesians 2:19-22)

In today's podcast we find three 'Word Pictures' that Paul uses to describe the church of Jesus Christ:

1. Fellow CITIZENS of HEAVEN- Showing Kingdom Life
2. Family- We are members of the Household of God
3. A Building - Corporately we are being 'Built Together' as A Habitation for ABBA ( A Living, Breathing Temple of God)

I Peter 2:9,10

9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
