Bring Peace

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.

Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:

And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

• Foretold

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

• Power
• War

Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.

• Counselor
• Wonderful

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

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.

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.

Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.
