Blessed are the peacemakers - 1

Peacemaking and pacifism are deeply embedded in the Christian tradition - although some of our brothers and sisters, particularly in the USA, do not seem to comprehend this and glorify the military and war.

At the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus said:

Blessed are the peacemakers:
for they shall be called the children of God.

Matthew 5:9

To honour those disciples involved in the recent protests near Rockhampton, Queensland, I have created a Peace Wordle. For more information, please go to Jarrod McKenna's site on Facebook.

This blog does not take Anonymous comments. Experience shows that comments cluttered with "Anonymous" are boring and people don't know whether "Anonymous" is one person or many. This is not a decision about freedom of speech. It is a decision about boring or unwillingness to be known by even a pseudonym.
