Tffr important is it, especially at
at riinr. :»r all men everywhere to
r . aw a rit-ar conception of what is
tie Bil l*' view of peace. Bible doc
trine are always safe and practical.
Tie*? we may follow with a sense of
profound .-atisfuction. Based upon
them, we feel thut mind and heart
rrr punted upon the rock eternal.
A fttise of unshakable security is
[jj B> attained, and such a sense is
pnttly needed in these days when
«o many winds of doctrine are carry-
•xr unanchored souls furiously about
a inch varied and divergent direc-
wc*.
fan the above Scripture texts, it
Bivtf ft- n at a glance that there is
i well defined Bible view of peace.
Tta n may consider under several
Kpttts such as individual peace,
cents* peace, community peace,
ciarth peace, national and interna
tional peace. Of these all are relat
ed to each and each to all, for they
root themselves deeply in the paace
of God that passeth all understand
ing, which is found in the personal
soul of each true believer in God
thru ugh Christ. Here, as elsewhere,
the collectivistic follows the individ
ualistic experience. The soul of uni
versal peace is the peace of the in
dividual soul
11. To Be Spiritually Minded la
Peare.—Romani 8.6
God is the great IVacen»ker in
that he converts the carnally minded
into the piritually minded. Hence,
they show the lineaments of their
■ I mine Father in these features of
their own characters. Sons and
daughters of God, therefore, are all
the ;eacemakers everywhere and in
ad the ages. Very practical, then, do
We •’ r “l I"' these Bible ideas of
we may; and we ought.
Homes, made up of those possess
ing this experience of peace with
God, cannot be otherwise than harm
onious. It is not from such homes
thnt the divorce-mills are fed their
grist of tragdy. Sons and daugh
ters of homes that are havens of
peace naturally become peacemakers
and help to make this a harmonious
world. Theirs are the feet of the
messengers to the nations, carrying
the glad tidings of peace. War will
be outlawed from the earth when
such homes prevail among men, ev
erywhere.
Just as truly, in community life,
are the Bible idaas of peace found
to be practical. A community made
up cf men and women, in whose
hearts dwell the peace of God, will
be a community in which all citizens
are at peace, one with another.
And how true it is, that the Spirit
of Peace pervades every church in
which are found those who are “call
ed the children of God.” And is
nn unpeaceful church the sorrow of
Heaven and the scandal of men
All the above positions arc
ceded to us by current opinion, for
thus far have Christian ideas gained
acceptance even among un-Christian
men. But when we seek to apply
the Bible ideas of peace to national
and international affairs, we find
that muny, even among Christian
men, draw back in doubt and ask: "Is
it feasible?”
111. World-Wid« P««e« la Feasible.
“‘Watchman, toll u? of the night,
What itfc signs of promise are.”
Many are the signs of promise
which God is giving to us today—
that world-peace is feasible. Among
these, we may well consider the
fact that, in our own land alone,
■ore than one-hur.dred organizations
re actively at work to bring in
orld-peacc. There are a number of
Conferences^ also, which annu*> n y
meet in the interest of world-peace.
These Conferences consist of men
pnd women of the kneenest, most
alert intelligence. They .are fully
informed on affairs of church and
state. Serious, reverent, humanity-
loving, these people renresent all
grades of American life and all areas
of our great nation. Simply to come
contact with such people is to ex
perience a mental, moral, religious
vigorruj vffor* to makepeace is | und social stimulus of the highest
carrying out the spirit of Christ. and fincst type .

unified by the one big fact that nil
alike are friends of World Peace.
In loving one-ness, they counsel
together nnd pray to the one Father
in the interest of world-wide peace
in His one household of hunanity,
the earth around.
Is it not seemly? Is it not wise?
Are we not all children of one
Father who, in his \>nly-begotten
Son, is the Supreme Peace-Maker,
that Son Himself ha%ing, by reason
of his Divine heredity, the pre-emin
ence over all others as'the “Prince
of Peace?” Is there not flawless
logic then in that bcuutitude which
says, “Blessed are the Peacemakers
for they shall be called the children
of God ” seeing that God is Himself
the Peacemaker Supreme.
“Watchman, tell us of the night,
“For the morning seems to dawn.
“Traveler, lo, the Prince of Peace,
“Lo, the Son of God is come!”
