Peace and understanding (2/4)

And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe.I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
Don’t imagine that I came to bring peace to the earth! I came not to bring peace, but a sword.Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.
I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
I want them to be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. I want them to have complete confidence that they understand God’s mysterious plan, which is Christ himself.That their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ.
May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Above all, you must realize that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the prophet’s own understanding, or from human initiative. No, those prophets were moved by the Holy Spirit, and they spoke from God.For prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!
For the Scriptures say, “If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies. Turn away from evil and do good. Search for peace, and work to maintain it.”For “He who would love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it.”
So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord.Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.
You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.
The Lord gives his people strength. The Lord blesses them with peace.The Lord will give strength to His people; The Lord will bless His people with peace.
Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace.Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God’s gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered.Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.
The church then had peace throughout Judea, Galilee, and Samaria, and it became stronger as the believers lived in the fear of the Lord. And with the encouragement of the Holy Spirit, it also grew in numbers.Then the churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were edified. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the messenger who brings good news, the good news of peace and salvation, the news that the God of Israel reigns!How beautiful upon the mountains Are the feet of him who brings good news, Who proclaims peace, Who brings glad tidings of good things, Who proclaims salvation, Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
Again he said, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.”So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
Deceit fills hearts that are plotting evil; joy fills hearts that are planning peace!Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, But counselors of peace have joy.
“Don’t you understand either?” he asked. “Can’t you see that the food you put into your body cannot defile you? Food doesn’t go into your heart, but only passes through the stomach and then goes into the sewer.” (By saying this, he declared that every kind of food is acceptable in God’s eyes.)So He said to them, “Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods?”
Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.
The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. May the grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding. Surely we don’t need to start again with the fundamental importance of repenting from evil deeds and placing our faith in God. You don’t need further instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.
Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.
