y not peace? said:
again my point still remains, you still have not prooven that Jesus HIMSELF has dont any acts of VIOLNECE upon others. And becuase you seem to like bible verses, here are a few to keep in mind:
Matthew 5:9 - Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Luke 1:79 - To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Luke 10:6 - And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
John 14:27 - Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
John 20:21 - Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
Romans 5:1 - Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Also look at when church it is finished: "Go in PEACE to LOVE and serve the Lord.
