Peace

Peace.—The Herald of Peace (Boston) asks that the third Sunday in December be observed by the churches as "peace Sunday." We do not blame the Herald of Peace for asking such a thing, but every sermon which every Christian minister preaches should be a message of peace, and be potent enough, if received, to take the war spirit out of every human heart. Christ is the Prince of Peace, he came to proclaim and give peace; his Gospel is glad tidings of peace, to proclaim peace to those who are near and those afar off. O, how much less of strife and bloodshed there would have been in the world if the professed servants of Christ had ever been what God designed them to be, messengers of peace!
