Muslim Demographics - A Christian Response...Continued from page 9

“Remind
the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to
be ready to do whatever is good, to slander no one, to be peaceable and
considerate, and to show true humility toward all men. At one time we
too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of
passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and
hating one another. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior
appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but
because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and
renewal by the Holy Spirit” (1 Titus 3:1-5).
Populations increase and decrease. Cultures come and go. Nations
rise and fall. History’s pages will continue to turn and bring whatever
it may being.....it matters not. Jesus said, “‘My kingdom is not of
this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by
the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place" (John 18:36).
Let us not forget this teaching from our Lord. Do not let anyone
steal your peace that is in Christ Jesus (Acts 10:36; Romans 5:1): “Do
not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and
petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the
peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your
hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. And the peace of God, which
transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in
Christ Jesus” (Phil. 4:6-8).
peace in him,
