Runaway Peace Train by Don Campbell

Many people think that Christianity should be a PEACE TRAIN. No problems,
no worries, the Lord’s gonna take care of them all. Health and Wealth will be
ours.

But then reality kicks in and our Peace Train looks more like a Crazy Train.

John 14:27
Peace – not as the world gives

World – Peace = Absence of Conflict
Jesus – Peace = Comfort in the midst of Conflict

World – NO Peace? Change your circumstances – job, friends, spouse
Jesus – NO Peace? Change yourself or rather be changed by the Spirit

We know from Galatians 5 that Peace is a Fruit of the Spirit

Galatians 5:25
If we live by the Spirit…we keep in step with the Spirit.

This isn’t about changing your circumstances….it is about changing YOU.

There are some fundamental things that we fail to DO…STEPS on the SPIRIT’s PATH we miss…that can cause us to stunt the growth of our fruit crop of PEACE.

Matt. 6:12
forgive us AS WE forgive others

Matt. 6:14
If / Then statements should always be highlighted

Mark 11:25
When you stand praying, hold anything against anyone, forgive him

1 John 2:9-11
light vs. darkness – stumbling around in the darkness – crazy train

Eph. 4:26-27, 31-32
Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath. Devil a foothold.

Get rid of all malice and forgive.

Holding back forgiveness is like drinking poison and hoping the other person gets
sick.

Its time for a “Do-Over”
