Dec 5 – The Fall of the Berlin Wall

Last month, Germany celebrated the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, It was erected in August of 1961 by the Communist Government to keep East Germans from fleeing to the West. Its destruction took place on November 9th, 1989. It provides us with a striking picture of the wall between us and God. Since our first parents disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden, there has been a wall separating us from our Creator. That wall is sin.. Isaiah wrote- “your iniquities have separated you from your God.” As long as the wall of our sins stands, we can have no freedom or fellowship with the Heavenly Father. Paul explained that before we become Christians, we are “without Christ…having no hope and without God in the world.” But thankfully, he added, “But now, in Christ Jesus, you who once were far off, have been brought near …. For He Himself is our peace…and has broken down the middle wall of separation. “ When we turn to Christ, the wall separating us from Him is gone.
