Jesus Christ came to restore peace on earth by restoring righteousness.

 

Isaiah 32: 1, 17 (Amplified)

v1   Behold a king will reign in righteousness

v17   And the effect of righteousness will be peace (internal and external) and the result of righteousness will be quietness and confident trust forever

 

WOW!   

 

We do not put on Christ’s robe of righteousness, but we should think of putting on Jesus Christ and seeking to be wrapped up in Him and His life.  As our fellowship with Christ becomes more personal and intimate and maintained, the growing renewal of our whole being makes righteousness to be our very nature
