Lord jesus Quote by Stuart Briscoe
““Paul also reminds the Roman believers that “we have peace through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Rom. 5:1). Foerster helpfully writes, “The basic feature of the Greek concept of ‘eirene’ is that the word does not primarily denote a relationship between several people, or an attitude, but a state, i.e., ‘time of peace’ or ‘state of peace’ originally conceived of purely as an interlude in the everlasting state of war.””
