Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the Peacemakers
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
John 14:27
Peace I Give to You
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
John 16:33
Peace I Give You in this Troubled World
33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
Jesus valued peace...Jesus blessed the peacemakers...We never heard of Him trying to root out the Roman occupation of Israel, which He easily could have done...He believed in making peace and tells us blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God...Jesus valued peace and said He could bring each of us a peace that is different than earthly peace, but is a peace not of this world...
But normally peace comes with some sort of sacrifice...
So as we read the gospels we see that Jesus brings us a Spiritual Peace that only He can bring and does it in a way that only He can do...And He was the One who would die for our sins...So we might say that His peace had this war against sin in which He was willing to sacrifice His life on the cross in order to render and overcome it for mankind's sake...And thus by dying on the cross He helped bring this peace of God's Kingdom to us...Because to have and believe and maintain peace, it generally comes with some kind of sacrifice to get and keep it...
