How do you find peace through Jesus

'Peace through Jesus' is at the heart of the gospel message.

Jeremy Pearce did a survey on “How do you find peace through Jesus?”.
The 28 answers could be sorted into 3 distinct groups, really representing Jesus in the past, future and present. A show of hands in the audience of around 400 also split into roughly these three categories. There were lots of positive comments afterwards.

> Jesus is Lord

Acts 10:36
"You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, telling the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all."


> How do you find peace through Jesus?

Not liking your Christians

"I do like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.
Your Christians are so unlike your Christ!"
Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)


And he has reason to say that. If more Christians would do what Jesus told them to do, and how God wants them to behave and handle, there would be less problems in the world.

Niet houden van dat soort Christenen

"Ik houd van uw Christus, ik houd niet van je christenen.
Uw christenen zijn zo anders dan uw Christus! "
Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)


En hij
heeft reden om dat te zeggen. Als er meer christenen zouden doen wat Jezus hen vertelde te doen, en zouden leven hoe God wenst dat ze zich gedragen en handelen, zouden er minder problemen in de wereld zijn.
