Peace as the Proper Environment for Righteousness
(From Forerunner Commentary)
|
Psalms 37:37 (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)
Righteousness produces peace with its qualities of quietness and assurance, but at the same time, peace provides the proper environment for righteousness to grow. One builds upon the other. A home without peace hinders the development of righteousness. Thus, God allows a Christian to divorce an abusive, unconverted mate (I Corinthians 7:15).

Philippians 4:6-9 (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)
God gives His peace to those of a pure or righteous heart and mind. The transition from Old to New Testament usage of "peace" strikingly illustrates its personal, internal application: Out of about 90 New Testament instances, 90% refer to heartfelt peace.
