Right now, in the middle of a raging congregational storm, the challenge to the 'people in the pews' to be peacemakers, because the Jesus in them IS peace itself, would be a great message. To realise, to actually believe, that Jesus IS our peace - present tense - is mind-blowing and Spirit-lifting. To know that we have peace - guaranteed by 2 Peter 1:3,4 - is to realise we can be peacemakers, simply by our presence in a situation, since we bring His Presence with us by His Spirit (His character and nature) in us. Hallelujah!

I agree with Bruce Donald. I can think of more than a few members in the pews that sit before me each Sunday that would leave with a better sense of why they were created and the powerful possibility of experiencing a "peace beyond understanding."

I feel I need to reply to the injustice I hear in the pervious reveiwers thoughts. "there is no good news in the sermon just theory"? "He will be their peace" and "God calls the lame and the outcast to be his peacemakers" Isn't that good news?! I could go on but enough said

Nice sermon for a college or seminary chapel service. The average person in a church pew would not find anything to sustain them for the upcoming week. There is no good news in the sermon, just theory.
