“The Peaceable Followers of Christ”
There is a quiet confidence, an assurance born of righteousness and trust in the Almighty, that characterizes the true followers of the Prince of Peace. They are peacemakers because they are at peace. They settle disputes because they are grounded and settled in the faith. They have come to know and evidence that which their Master promised: “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27; compare Romans 5:1; Philippians 4:7; Colossians 3:15.)
