Peace!

Jeremiah 6: 14

‘Peace, peace,' they say, when there is no peace….

 

Most Christian scholars of this modern time, say that we live in the day of acceptance, like at no other time in history.

In our culture, almost anything goes, and it’s said that morality is only a relative term.

 

Tolerance today really means… “Don’t preach to me—I don’t plan on changing anyway!”

They’re the same kind of people who say… “Peace—Peace”, but there isn’t any real peace.

 

Don’t you wish that peace would really come?

Some day it will, when the Prince of Peace arrives on the scene.

 

Peace comes when we follow Jesus, and let’s remember that His plan for our lives is an exclusive one.

When we say yes to Jesus, we are faced with a very important, exclusive choice.

 

Deception is alive and well in our world.

Most of the effective plans of deception, even sound very pleasant to the ears.

Just be sure of this—they will never bring any lasting peace.

 

God’s Word brings about peace, and are pleasant sounding words too, but only to the repentant heart, that wants to make a wholesale change.

His peace is for the imperfect person, who is constantly striving to be like Jesus, and who doesn’t want to stay imperfect.

That’s what sanctification is.

 

Then, and only then—will peace come about—especially when there seems to be, no peace at all…
