1 | World Peace | Ps 2:1 | formereverything | 120925 | ||
I have thought about Psalm 2 in light of current events and hope I can share my reflections with this forum. "the people devising a vain thing" recalls for me the contiuousb attempts at peace in the mideast. I think everyone would be happy to see peace but Psalm 2 gives us ahint as to why it will not happen. Verse 10-12 encourages world leaders to turn to the Son.."Kiss the Son" was refering to giving the Son Homage, respect, honor. Without Him their attempts at peace are futile and vain. A promise of blessing is given to these leaders if they will but remember the Son. THe Scriptures promise us that Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Apart from him as head, there can be no peace.

I tend to agree with you. As confirmation of your thought, Jesus stated as follows in Matt 24:3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?" 4And Jesus answered and said to them: "Take heed that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in My name, saying, "I am the Christ,' and will deceive many. 6And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all[1] these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9"Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake. 10And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. Personally, I don't think it's within the capacity of mankind to know true peace for very long. Only God and His Son could possibly effect peace on this earth and of course that's not going to happen until His 2nd coming. God bless all who look forward to His coming again. --Rowdy |
