Under the Juniper Tree Season 8, Episode 3 for Tuesday, September 4, 2018
· If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. (Rom. 12:18; ESV).
· Breakdown of the verse:
· “If Possible…” means that peace may not always be available.
o But it does imply three things:
§ 1. It should be our goal to create peace.
§ 2. We should endeavor to create it.
§ 3. Peace is not always an easy thing to attain.
· “…so far as it depends on you…
o Two implications:
§ We should not be the originators of the argument.
§ We are doing as much as we can on our end to create peace.
· “…live peaceably with all.”
o We are to seek peace with the rest of mankind.
o Consider verses such as Matt. 5:9 and Heb. 12:14.
· Two Biblical Examples
o Gen. 13:5-11
o Acts 15:36-40
