Active Peacemaking: Following Christ's Example with Chad Ford

Proclaim Peace

NOTE

The Role of Eschatology in Peacemaking

Eschatology, particularly thinking about future events like the second coming of Jesus and the prophecy of peace, can sometimes lead Christians to passivity, waiting for Jesus to fix all conflicts. However, biblical stories like that of Jacob and Esau illustrate proactive peacemaking. The message is to recognize the role individuals play in creating peace now, rather than waiting for a future divine intervention. Jesus expects believers to actively engage in resolving conflicts and mitigating harm, following his example of actively moving toward solving problems and helping those in need.
