Is There REALLY Peace on Earth?
Christmas is often associated with peace—peaceful nativity scenes, cards proclaiming “Peace on earth,” and the serene beauty of softly falling snow. But let’s be honest: the holiday season doesn’t always feel peaceful. Between the chaos of shopping, family dynamics, and world events filled with conflict, the promise of peace can feel far away.
So, did Jesus really bring peace on earth? Or is this a misunderstanding of what the Bible teaches?
In our latest video, we explore this question by looking at Scripture, history, and the deeper meaning behind the angelic announcement at Jesus' birth:
Key Points We’ll Unpack:
The Biblical Promise of Peace
What the angels meant in Luke 2:14 when they declared, “Peace on earth.”
Why Jesus is called the “Prince of Peace” in Isaiah 9:6.
The Reality of Our World
From wars to personal struggles, the world seems anything but peaceful. Does that mean Jesus failed?
God’s Peace vs. Worldly Peace
Jesus didn’t come to promise worldly calm but to reconcile us to God. Learn how true peace is found in salvation through Christ (John 14:27, Ephesians 2:8–9).
A Lesson from Longfellow
Reflect on Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s famous poem, I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day, and how it resonates with the challenges we face today.
The Hope of Eternal Peace
Even in life’s chaos, believers can rest in the peace of knowing God’s victory is assured (John 16:33).
This video reminds us that Christmas is about more than traditions—it’s about the incredible peace that comes through Jesus Christ. When we understand this, the struggles of the season and the world around us pale in comparison to the hope we have in Him.
