SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

“Wars and rumors of wars” (Matthew 24:6) is one of the answers that Jesus gave when the disciples asked, “What will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age…but for these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” We pray for peace. We pray for the leaders of this nation that they do not lead us into wars, knowing that in a sinful world, what must be done by the law to restrain evil people, so at times must one nation restrain another by going to war. Jesus reminds us that war is part of the tribulation to which we must be subjected. Christians must not think that Christ to came give peace on earth in a special earthly kingdom. “In the world you will have tribulation; be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). Jesus also said, “I came not give peace on earth, but a sword” (Matthew 10:34). Christian doctrine and faith has caused conflict because the devil and the world is always opposed to the Truth. Jesus also promised, “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you, not as the world gives do I give to you” (John 14:27).
