How do we know that peacemaking is essential for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Peacemaking is essential for Christians as it directly reflects the character of Christ and demonstrates their role in reconciliation with God and others.

Peacemaking is vital for Christians because it signifies their transformation and participation in God's work of redemption. The believer’s mission involves seeking reconciliation with those who are at enmity with God (2 Corinthians 5:20). The Beatitudes show that peacemakers embody the grace they have received, as they strive to lead others towards peace with God through Christ. This reflects a complete and holistic Christian character, underscoring the importance of actively promoting peace in a world filled with division and hostility.
