Nancy,

Jesus came to give peace to his people but not to the world.

I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled. Luke 12:47

Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, nay; but rather division. For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. Luke

Jesus answered, my kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered ot the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. John

It is the duty of a Christian to proclaim the kingdom of God. The prerequisites for membership to his kingdom is confession with the heart that Jesus Christ is both Lord and Savior. Anyone who refuses His lordship will not enter into His kingdom. God is love but he is also Just and will not allow sin in His presence. 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.
