Peace on Earth
(photo yahoo)
~According to Billy Graham:
...the Bible does not promise that we will ever have complete peace on this earth -- not until Christ comes again to establish His perfect kingdom of righteousness and justice. In fact, the Bible even indicates that as Christ's coming draws near, we will see even worse conflicts. Jesus said, "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. ... Such things must happen, but the end is still to come" (Matthew 24:6). item
~Who are we to question the reasons for war and terrorism? To look on the killing and destruction with sorrow and anger?
Can true believers believe in peace on earth?
Can true believers be true believers and see war and terrorism as evil and not part of god's plan for his chosen people?
It's in the Bible.
Non-believers and heathens defy god's will when they work for peace?
Here's search results from the King James Bible (Old & New Testament) for peace on earth.
Billy Graham's writing an advice column for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer? See this rant.
