Matthew 5:9 "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons (children) of God"
Guys, I have been wrestling with this scripture for several years now and I would consider input from you all helpful, no matter what that input might be.
What does this scripture mean to you, if anything? And if it does mean something, then "What is the why and how of it?" I am having trouble understanding how anyone could possibly be a peacemaker in today'world. Everything in today's world is just way too fragmented. And if these peacemakers are going to be called the "sons (children) of God," then "What !?" How could that be possible? Debate is welcome and some "topic drift" is also welcome. Anybody?
