NASB | Matthew 5:9 ¶ "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 5:9 ¶ "Blessed [spiritually calm with life-joy in God's favor] are the makers and maintainers of peace, for they will [express His character and] be called the sons of God. [Heb 12:14] |
Bible Question (short): What is a "peacemaker?" |
Question (full): Hello Brothers and Sisters. I have a question: When Jesus said that "Blessed are the peacemakers" in Matt 5:9, what does He mean? The reason why I ask this is because He says later in Matthews 10 that He didn't come to bring peace but a sword. If we are children of God, we are to follow His leadership, right? Could anybody help me with this? Your answers are greatly appreciated |
