Jesus is indeed the Prince of Peace. But, Jesus Himself declared, “I did not come to bring peace but a sword.” Jesus is our Savior and our Healer. But, Jesus also said that, “I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!”
These seeming contradictions require us to look beyond the church clichés and caricatures of Jesus and to see Him and His mission more deeply. Hear what Jesus Himself said about the necessary role of pain in the plan of salvation.
The message is called : LET JESUS HURT YOU
Listen well.
