The Messiah has come that we might have peace within, peace with others and peace in the world. The word shalom in all of its forms is mentioned 550 times in the Bible. We typically use peace and shalom interchangeably in the English language. But shalom is far more comprehensive than simply the absence of war and chaos. Shalom is the relational restoration of creation as God the creator and sustainer intends.
