No Peace for the Wicked

The Iranian president says no peace.......but you are mistaken if that is the view you have of Jesus Christ.

If you read the Hebrrew Holy Scriptures (which one may wonder given the unbelief you have of what Jesus says),Read Isaiah Chapters 52 though 55, reading them as if you are truly interested in the truth of what Almighty God says.

Then read of the assurances disciples of Jesus Christ have in His own words, sampled here:

John 14:27) "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

One does not hear Mahmoud Ahmadinejad saying anything remotely like that, and neither is it read in your post when Jesus Christ is misquoted by you. So whose peace do you think a believer in Jesus Christ is going to trust?
