✝️ TWO PEACES — STILL IN CONFLICT

Jesus gave the contrast plainly:

📖 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.”

— John 14:27 (KJV)

🌍 The world’s peace

• negotiated by governments

• secured by military and economic pressure

• tied to markets, sanctions, and resources

• dependent on compliance

✝️ Christ’s peace

• freely given

• rooted in truth

• received by faith

• protects conscience

• requires no force

One peace manages nations.

The other peace redeems the heart.
