Why There is War Between Nations?
To this question, “Why There is War Between Nations?” I would answer that war is a never ending practical notion, as long as the planet exists. The more we try to bring peace, the more destruction and disruption. That’s because of sins like envy, pride, and more such abominable wickedness. There are also some so-called peacemakers, who call it peace but inwardly they try to gain the world.
The opposite of war is peace and love. Our God of the Bible has commanded us to bring peace with one another, not being envying, nor prideful, sloth, and have mercy showing others. He says in John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid“
However there are prophecies that the Son of Man has come not to bring peace rather war and chaos, he cometh to bring the son against his father, daughter against her mother, daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. He says so, because a family without Christ as the head cannot flourish and survive happily. Since a plant without water dries, and ultimately dies, so a family without Christ the Messiah who is the savior, they will go astray in their own fundamental knowledge not knowing what to do, and so bringing damnation to themselves.
As such, there will always be disruptions, disagreement, and war, in any/some part of the earth.
Now, war among nations has been going on since the beginning of the ancient days. Dictatorships, one government rule, cults that bring another gospel, religious beliefs, etc. All these factors have been continuing and are still continuing bringing in terror and criminal minds. As such, we see deaths all over.
We see nations trying to make deals within one another to bring peace, but that is temporary. Jesus’ second coming will make it all clear. He did not ask to shake hands with the unbelievers, or be unequally yoked with them, rather to not be affected and stay undefiled from their belief system.
If you are to make a change in the society, bring peace, how to live in peace, as individuals, like Mother Teresa said, “If you want to change the world, go and love your family”.
finally, there are so many peace related verses in the bible, you can refer to bring peace within one another and also nations.
