Quickly

Shoes that lead, “Quickly” to the Gospel of Peace. Classifications, denominations, nationalizations, gender, creed, origin, specie, sexual identification, biases, romances, ideals, social paradigms, colors, religions, arguments, perspectives, alliances, attributions, loyalties and dogma. The dawn has arisen it seems on the peculiarity of unity, the joy of oneness, the participation in something commonly understood, believed and respected.  E Pluribus Unum, from many ONE.

We are the respecters the promoters of peace though it may not be had until His arrival, the effort or conscious focus must be to join not divide.  However it is not glory that Christ shares with us that we might be of worldly tolerances but that we might be one in Him, tightly knitted, mortared side by side against the Cornerstone of Christ that we might be encouraging, fortifying and assisting others feel one within the Body or Structure of the Church.

This is done by Quickly getting to the message of Christ our Saviour as the only answer for what ails mankind.  What you say, that is a dividing statement.  Au contraire, there have always only been two positions, those who are with God already and those who could be with God but for ignorance or choice have chosen the alternate position.  The only way for them to achieve peace is through the Prince of Peace, the Lord Jesus Christ.  Certainly the world cries out for a false peace but what they really crave is a one world government that tolerates their individual proclivities, an idea which is imaginary, illusory and frankly impossible in a humanity sponsored and driven by powers and principalities pent on its destruction.

Shall we then shy away from our duty and understanding in Christ, choosing instead to remain outside the discussion for fear of disturbing the Peace.  Look, there has never been peace on Earth, even when Jesus came the first time they were determined to have war, strife, illness, greed, avarice and death.  For them who cry peace, peace, I would have you point me toward a time when that was the ruling worldly or national ideal.  Yes, we as humans crave peace, because that desire is built into the Gospel of the coming King, the Lord Jesus.  He alone will bring peace to this Earth, whether now through us leading folks to the Cross that they might find Peace in Christ now or when Christ comes and brings with Him the Peace of a Sovereign, Almighty God.  We are the Peace Makers.  Do we understand the implications of that phrase.  In Jesus’ Name.
