Jesus, through His message, showed us the truth of God. In New Testament times, many had little hope. So today, many have little hope. Hong Kong being turned over to the communist oppressors. Jesus' message is a message of hope.
History is filled with war.
Peace with God. The peace of God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Peace with men. Jesus preached a message of eternal life.
