Peace

Aug 09, 2016

The Lord Jesus came to this earth on a mission of peace – but not in the physical sense that most people imagine, because mankind by nature abhors God and holds Him in the highest contempt.
But Ephesians 2:14-15 describe the spiritual, eternal peace between God and man that Christ secured for His people: “For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us, having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances, for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace.”
And Isaiah 26:3 also speaks of the wonderful peace that God has gifted to each of His children: “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee, because he trusteth in thee.”
