The Promise of Peace
Dec 2, 2023
On the first Christmas God promised: "Glory to God in the highest, and PEACE, goodwill toward men." Yet peace is the last thing we have in our world. Is peace even possible? Yes, and the Bible tells us why.

Luke 2:8-12
Show/Hide Scripture Passage
8And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. 10And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. 11For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
