CHRISTIANITY
Bringing about the kingdom of God through Agape = the crux of Christian faith
Peace in Chrisitianity is defined in the New Testament as, ‘Eirene,’ which refers to the tranquil state of the individual soul assured of its salvation through Christ, thus eliciting trust in God. This then leads to being in harmony with one another, thus calling for adherents to build and work towards this common goal that is foundational to the paradigm of Chrisitianity; building the Kingdom of God as stated by (Romans 14:17-19) “For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but of righteousness and peace…let us then pursue what leads to peace and to building up one another”
