“Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.”
for they will be called sons of God.”
Matthew 5:9
Peacemakers are those who bring the same message of love and reconciliation to others as God brought to them through Jesus Christ. They have a genuine love for all mankind. They not only possess peace themselves, but out of love to God, they do everything possible to promote peace everywhere – preserving it between men and restoring it when it is broken. These are the people who resolve differences and conflicts, quench hatred and unite the divided. They understand what true peace is and that there is only one way for true peace – trusting in Jesus Christ.
The result is that those who have and promote peace become children of God – children who imitate their Father’s love.
