The Bible describes peace as a divine gift that surpasses human understanding, rooted in our relationship with God through Christ.
The Bible describes peace as the 'peace of God, which passeth all understanding' (Philippians 4:7), assuring believers of a stable heart and mind through Jesus Christ. This peace is distinct from any earthly peace, which is often temporary and external. The true peace believers enjoy is internal, eternal, and grounded in the certain promises of God's Word, manifesting especially in times of trial and tribulation. It is a peace that comes from being justified by faith in Christ (Romans 5:1), recognizing our sins are forgiven and that we are righteous in the sight of God, sustaining us throughout life's challenges.
