As followers of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, we are to do everything we can to live in peace with our fellowman. God commands us to seek and pursue peace and to be peacemakers; and He does not command us to do something which would be impossible for us to accomplish. The Bible gives us principles which show us what to do–and what NOT to do–to maintain peaceful relationships.

The Forgotten God
Being forgotten by His people Israel was–and
is–something God solemnly warns about. The consequences for the nation have in
the past and will in the future lead to national punishment.
Forgetting God also holds grave warnings for
Christians.
Will God Protect Us?
Can we expect protection from God during these difficult economic times? What is required on our part to expect His Protection?
When the Sons of God Saw the Daughters of Men
Genesis 6:1-4 has been misunderstood by many people, including Jewish and Christian commentators, Bible translators and scholars. Based on a terribly wrong interpretation of that passage, horrendous false concepts developed, teaching blasphemous doctrines. We must make totally sure that we do not fall for or embrace any of those wrong teachings, and that we know and uphold the truth.
Stubbornness – A Sure Way to Destruction
In the Bible, stubbornness is generally described in a negative way. It is sometimes difficult to detect, because it is often related to self-righteousness. If we are in that frame of mind, we may not see a need for us to repent. We may see all kinds of faults in others, but not in ourselves. We may stubbornly reject counsel–and this attitude may lead to our complete downfall. If we refuse to allow God to change us, we are predestined to fail.
The Will of God
The Bible reveals that in heaven where God dwells, His
will is carried out. By contrast, people on the earth are pictured as not doing
the will of God–with the exception of those who follow Jesus Christ. An
important question for us to consider is whether or not we are among those
precious few who both understand and then do the will of God.
Uncertain Riches
In these times of economic uncertainty, we must be ever more dilegent in our efforts to store up for ourselves treasure which is eternal.
The Last Great Day
The important significance of this day for mankind in that they will all have an opportunity to become full fledged sons of God in the Kingdom of God.
Forever and Ever
The Bible very clearly reveals that mankind is being offered a place in the Family of God in the new heavens and the new earth. Along with this opportunity comes great accountability, and what we are doing now will have a decisive impact on our role in that future time!
