“Let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts.”
Colossians 3:15
“Paul tells us to let Christ’s peace to umpire or referee in our hearts. Our hearts are the center of conflict because there our feelings and desires clash - our fears and hopes, distrust and trust, jealously and love. How can we deal with these constant conflicts and live as God wants? Paul explains that we must decide between conflicting elements by using the rule of peace - which choice will promote peace in our souls and in our churches?
“Whatever you have learned or received or
heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice.
And the God of peace will be with you.”
Philippians 4:9
