“Harmony from Heaven” from Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:9)

Biblical peacemaking is a theological imperative that invites believes to participle in God’s redemptive plan for humanity. It is grounded in the character of God and the saving work of Christ. Furthermore, it mandates believers to be agents of reconciliation in their personal lives, within the church and in broader society. The manifold blessing of peacemaking includes experiencing God’s nearness, fostering church unity, and contributing to global justice and peace. As children of God, Christians are called to embody and extend the peace of Christ, bearing witness to the ultimate reconciliation that He brings.
