On the one hand, it is a beautiful idea. I long for the day, but on the other hand, I know this can only be fulfilled at Jesus' return (Revelation 21:4). Until then, peace throughout the world will never occur. Jesus said that until the day of His coming, there will be “wars and rumors of wars” and that “nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom” (Matthew 24:6-7). Men have always been at war with one another and that won't end before Jesus comes.
Promoting world peace is simply not biblical. Until every knee bows and every tongue confesses that Jesus Christ is LORD (Philippians 2:10-11), there can be no true and lasting peace. Ought we not be more economical with our prayers?
As True Christians™, our faith remains in God and Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace. Until He comes to renew the world and bring true peace, world peace will remain little more than a dream. Our most important task is to convince others of their need for the Savior, who is the only One who can bring about peace. “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1). Is there any other way to promote world peace?
