War and Peace

author: Colin Smith

Description

This short reflection based on Mark 13:7 considers modern day wars and our yearning for peace and understanding. The various atrocities which occur in warfare are seen as a consequence of the nature of humankind and, as such, nothing new. The Biblical way in which Human nature can be bought under control and its link to the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus is briefly explored. Finally it is declared that the continued existence of wars do not necessarily signify the beginning of the end times.
