So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are citizens with the saints and also members of the household of God, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone. In him the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord; in whom you also are built together spiritually into a dwelling place for God. (Ephesians 2:19-22, NRSV)
We are citizens with the saints! Gathered together in love and in your mission Lord!
No one is excluded, the stranger and the alien are not outsiders any more but have been welcomed into the family!.
We are the dwelling place of God!
We are the citizens with the saints!
