For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes upon them. 1 Thessalonians 5:3 We have listened throughout our lifetime to the continuing promises of peace and progress made by the educators and legislators and the scientists, but so far they have failed to make good on any of them. Perhaps it is an ironic thought that fallen men, through they cannot fulfill their promises, are always able to make good on their threats! Well, true peace is a gift of God and today it is found only I the minds of innocent children and in the hearts of trustful Christian believers. Only Jesus could say: “My peace I give unto to you . . . . Let not your heart be troubled; neither let it be afraid!” (see John 14:27). Surely the ‘great” of this world have underestimated the wisdom of the Christian, after all. When the Day of the Lord comes, he may stand like Abraham above the burning plain and watch the smoke rising from the cities that forgot God. The Christian will steal a quick look at Calvary and know that this judgement is past. A.W. Tozer
