Chris,
<< Far too many people presume upon the love of God only to find in the end that they had never really known God at all.>>
1 John 4:16
God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17: Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
18: There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19: We love him, because he first loved us.
20: If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
21: And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

You go on your way Chris and I will go on trusting in the love of God for without it we are all hopeless and as it says we love because He first loved us. I have seen you bully people with the gospel of put downs and force and have not seen much positive response. The fruits of the Spirit include gentleness kindness joy peace etc... I sincerely pray things go well for you and the Lord will soften your heart.
Nancy

P.S. One other note you said Jesus only gives peace to His people but John 3:16 says For God so loved the WORLD!! Peace was an issue for the Jews saw the Messiah as bringing peace to the earth so He was telling them that time has not yet come.
