It has been established, in the church bulletin, above, that God never claimed that there will be world peace. How can there be world peace when the Prince of Peace was crucified on the cross of Calvary ( see Luke 23:26-49 ( especially verse 33, for example; KJV, for example ), for example )? This sinful world ( see Matthew 10:24, 25; John 15:19; Acts, chapter 3 ( especially verse 14, for example ); and 1 Corinthians 7:17-24 ( especially verses 22 and 23, for example ); 11:1, for example ) does not want peace.
In Romans 14:17, it is written, " 17 h For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but i of righteousness and j peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. " The church of Christ is the earthly realm of the kingdom of God ( see Daniel, chapter 2 ( especially verse 44, for example ); Joel 2:28-32; Luke, chapter 1 ( especially verse 33, for example ); and Acts, chapter 2 ( especially verses 17-21, for example ), for example ). The adherents of Premillenialism espouse this false doctrine in order to wrongly claim that a religious denomination, party, or sect, is the church, when it is not, and to wrongly claim that they are Christians, when they are not ( see John 8:31, for example ). God says that only the church is righteousness and peace and joy.
We do not see this righteousness, peace, and joy in the world. In James 3:16, it is written ( please read all of this chapter to get the immediate context ), " 16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. " In this world, we see selfish ambition, for example.
When the angel and a multitude of the heavenly host said, i " Glory to God j in the highest, j and on earth k peace l among those with whom he is pleased, " they were indicating God's pleasure with the New Testament church, the church of Christ. We, as children of God, have beat our swords into plowshares, and our spears into pruning hooks. Please seek and read from the book of the LORD ( see Isaiah 34:16, for example ).
