The Promise of Peace
Are we drowning in a sea of troubles? Look at the chaos we reap because of man’s in-humanity to man. Consider the depths of degradation in this dark world of sin. With sorrows flooding our souls, we vainly struggle to meet life’s pressing duties. With Byron, the poet, we are apt to cry, “Oh, that the desert were my dwelling place!” My friend, how many people do you know who are suffering from some nervous disorder…have had a nervous breakdown…or, “are planning to have on” as soon as they can save up enough money to afford it? Into such a world torn with strife came the Prince of Peace. The night that Mary brought forth her first born Son, shepherds abiding in the field heard an angel say, “Fear no: for behold, I bring you tidings of great joy.” And suddenly, “there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward me” (Luke 2:14 KJV). Throughout His life this stranger from the shores of Galilee shone a welcome light of peace into the dark corners of the world. He reminded His disciples that whenever they entered a house they should say, “Peace be to this house” (Luke 10:5) But eventually this hostile world hammered out the life of this peace-loving man by nailing Him to a cross. His disciples fled in fear, huddling behind a locked door. They were gripped by fear. A step on the stairs, a knock on the door might signal their arrest by emissaries of the Sanhedrin. Knowing the bitterness of the Jews, they knew their lives were in jeopardy. But suddenly…Jesus came into their midst breathing a benediction, “Peace be with you.” Once again, As on the Sea of Galilee, The Christ is whispering “Peace.” Perhaps you would like to know how to receive the peace Jesus offers. If so, please write for your FREE booklet “The Ultimate Gift.” Email me or write to me at P.O Box 1540, Albany W.A 6331. Telephone / Fax (08) 98 418 418

The Christ is whispering “Peace.”
