cause. Peace is coming to all the earth some day through Christ. And
those who shall do most to help Him bring it are the men and women to
whom He gives Peace in the Soul.

Peace on Earth Through Righteousness

_And the work of righteousness shall be peace: and the effect of
righteousness quietness and confidence forever._

--ISAIAH 32:17.


After we have found peace in our own souls through faith
in God and in His Son, Jesus Christ our Saviour, if our faith is honest,
we must feel the desire and the duty of helping to make peace prevail on
earth.

But here we are, in a world of confusion and conflict. Darkness and
ignorance strive against light. Evil hates and assaults good. Wrong
takes up arms against right. Greed and pride and passion call on
violence to defeat justice and enthrone blind force. So has it been
since Cain killed Abel, since Christ was crucified on Calvary, and so it
is to-day wherever men uphold the false doctrine that "might makes
right."
