Summary
Jesus didn't advice and counsel peace. He didn't give them a prescription for peace. He didn't suggest that his men should cool it, relax, and just be peaceful. He bestowed it upon them. He seemed to have been able to put it inside of them. He gave them peace of his own that was to become their own. It was not advice, it was bestowed. It's a beautiful gift especially when you realize what peace meant to Jesus. Peace for him, for them or for us is not the absence of conflict, war is not the opposite of peace. Peace to Jesus was inner serenity. Peace to Jesus was peace of mind. Peace to Jesus was peace of soul. Peace to Jesus is what a keel is to a sailboat. Peace to Jesus is what roots are to a tree.
