Bible Note: Dear Ed, Yes, Chesterton was actually being critical of all non-Romanists. I agree with you! "Blessed is the peacemaker" as our Lord asserted (Matthew 5:9a) He is the ultimate peacemaker, but in the beatitudes He was talking about those who bring the gospel and make peace between man and God. Nonetheless, though you are remiss in actually citing the word, may I do so for you, while I yet have the strength to do so? "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful." (John 14:27) Chesterton is someone you have probably never read except in the quotes I have brought. He was a brilliant man, but his doctrine -- though more similar to yours than mine -- would not have admitted to this kind of peace. So, bravo for your observation, though lacking the effort to actually cite a verse. I'm glad you remember the gist of the passages where our Lord taught. In Him, Doc |
