There is a lot of talk about peace in the world, but the world can’t bring world peace. That can only come through God. And until we have peace with God, we will not have peace with others. God sent His Son, Jesus, that we might have peace with Him. That happens when, by faith, we trust in Christ as Savior. If we want lasting peace with others, we need to have lasting peace with God. Then we are called on to be at peace with others. We are told to do whatever it takes to make peace. That doesn’t mean we compromise the truth of the Scriptures. It does mean that we pursue peace, peace that God gives us to give to others.
