“He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.” Isaiah 2: 4

Somehow, amidst the civil war in Syria, a businessman has managed to get a 40-foot statue of Jesus Christ erected on Mt. Sednaya. He did this by brokering a temporary ceasefire among the warring factions.
Proving once again that miracles still happen in the name of Christ.
And further proving, again, that no matter how atrocious things get in this broken and violent world that groans in suffering from man’s proverbial inhumanity toward man, peace is possible.
This is Christian Faith 101– that love, and the peace and grace that are embedded in love, triumphed over evil 2,000 years ago.
