world peace. But not surprisingly, their solutions were all man-centered, not God-cen-
tered. They must have believed that man can save himself & doesn’t need a Saviour.
But one God created us, and in that sense God is the father of all people. We are all

at the Courthouse Art Gallery of the same blood & we are all created in the image of God. And because we are all His
creation, we should all live in peace. But there is no peace on earth apart from the love
of Christ. Any so-called world peace engineered by man will be superficial at best.
EXHIBIT, Christianity offers the one true path to peace, the one way to the Father & that is through the
Lord Jesus Christ & through faith in Him alone. Believers in Christ proclaim their dependence on
Jesus, & claim that sin is the problem behind our lack of peace both with God & with each other.
SALE & Conversely, we can’t expect anyone who is false with God to be true to others. If a
relationship with the Lord is severed, even natural affections are too easily tossed by the
wayside. And sometimes the sins of the fathers or mothers often carry on to the third or
