Christ Our Peace

14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, 15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one (A)new man from the two, thus making peace, 16 and that He might (B)reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby (C)putting to death the enmity. 17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. 18 For (D)through Him we both have access (E)by one Spirit to the Father.
