Description
Romans 12:18 tells Christ-followers: "As far as it depends upon you, be at peace with all people." Yet the evil one's strategy to sow seeds of strife throughout society seems to be working rather well. From immediate family to international structures, individuals and world leaders are often all too quick to want to settle differences in other than peaceful ways. This message challenges us to consider the variety of influences which shape our conviction on the issue of war and to do a serious reevaluation of where we, as Christians, want to stand on the Realists/Just War/Pacifists continuum.
