Can We Get a Little Peace Around Here?
Aug 26, 2020 • Chad Johnson • Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 10:34-35
“Peace on Earth, good will to man.” “I’ve got peace like a river.” “Let the peace of God reign.” You could name a hundred worship songs about the peace of Christ. So you get this image in your mind of a soft, guru-like Jesus running around in sandals speaking words of enlightenment. Then you trip on Matthew 10 where Jesus jarringly states, “I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.” Whoa. Help us out!
