Helen Spaulding Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Q4. (3:17-18) With what tool do peacemakers sow peace? Why does this produce a ripening crop of righteousness? In whom does this crop grow? Peace comes from heaven and the wisdom God gives His servants to sow in peace. This brings a harvest of righteousness--full of mercy, consideration, submission and good fruit. Why? Because it is full of the loving attributes listed in I Corinthians 13! When those around us see God's love shining through us, they are intrigued by what makes us different and want to know more about it. This gives the opportunity to tell them about our Lord Jesus and His love--that it is this that they are feeling, not of us but totally of Him! Then these may come to Him, accept His love and learn of Him--by which they grow in knowledge and love of and in Him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
June Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Love & humility... Words are then spoken out of the overflow of the heart . This produces what God desires for righteousness. Positive things build up and negative things tear down. Love builds up . Love never fails.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helenmm Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Peacemakers sow peace with the tool of their tongue. Peace is akin to God's rest. In Hebrews 4 God tells us to make sure that we enter into God's rest. Peace guides us. If we value our peace with God (alias rest) we will be the expression of His peace, which is His righteousness, since that is in accord with His spiritual laws. If we work against the law of gravity and leap from a great height, the resultant crash will not be peaceful, restful, or God's will. As in the physical, so in the spiritual. If we work against God's peace, the resultant "crash" will not be the expression of His peace and righteousness If we do work within the frameword of God's peace (spiritual laws of rest), the result (crop) will be holy living or righteousness. This crop is Jehovah Tsidkenu, God our righteousness. Yes, Jesus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In whom does this crop grow? With the heavenly wisdom. It is not gained through the wisdom and knowledge of this world. The heavnly wisdom creates a different kind of roots in the body. These roots take their nourishment from the word of God, fruits of the spirit. And that's why the fruits that come out are so beautiful and serence to behold and enjoy in the spirit. Only the Spirit filled Chrisitians show these crops. These crops are evident in a believers life and many are benefited by them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In whom does this crop grow? Righteousness--as the Amplified puts it: And the harvest of righteousness (conformity to God's will in thought and deed) is the fruit of the seed sown in peace by those who work for and make peace which means concord (agreement, harmony) between individuals, with untisturbedness, in a peaceful mind free from fears and agitating passions and moral conflicts!! When we conform to God's will in thought--and in deed-- there will be peace within-- This crop grows in those who are obeying God's will -- Christians!!

grace Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 With what tool do peacemakers sow peace? We sow peace only as we are controlled and filled by the Holy Spirit, living in obedience to the Word of God, with the wisdom that is from above. Why does this produce a ripening crop of righteousness? Jesus was in favour with man and God. Wisdom enables us to make the right decisions in life, thus pleasing God and our fellow man. It can also be considered a fruit of the Spirit, that ungodly people can recognize and respect us for. In whom does this crop grow? This crop grows in anyone who will seek with all their heart and is open to the leading and guidance of the Holy Spirit in doing the will of the Father.

Renee Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Q4. (3:17-18) With what tool do peacemakers sow peace? Looking at the good in whatever is going on, listening to others, ... , basically it's all about LOVE. Why does this produce a ripening crop of righteousness? Because when we love one another it turns our out look towards what's good for the other person instead of looking at what would be good for me. In whom does this crop grow? I would think that it should grow in Christians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Nabors Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 With what tool do peacemakers sow peace? Why does this produce a ripening crop of righteousness? In whom does this crop grow? The tool peacemakers use is love. This produces a ripening crop of righteousness because it "always trusts, always hopes" in God. True love in a person trusts God and hopes in God implicitly without reservation. The crop grows in those who wholeheartedly put their faith and trust in God through Jesus Christ.

Bob Reeves Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 *Peace makers sow peace with humility and and loving heart. Having the love of God in your heart will bring wisdom and humility. *According to James 3:16, if we have "envy and strife" we are "confused and evil." Needless to say, you cannot produce peace nor can you produce a ripening crop of righteousness. *James 3:17 tells us ". . . wisdom that is from above (heaven) is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good FRUITS,. . ." Verse 18 goes like this, "And the FRUIT of righteousness is sown in peace . . ." *James finishes off in 3:18 like this, ". . . of them that meke peace." This is wonderful. So, if we receive wisdom form above (heaven), then we will be sow in love and the fruit of sowing in love will produce righteousness (right standing before God).

In whom does this crop grow? The first is always with love one for another. The fruit of the Spirit is love and we know that also holds in it joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. Gal. 5:22/23 This will grow in those that seek the Lord first and put others before them. It will grow in one that is seeking God and living to the best of all that is with in them to be like Jesus. We have the example for us to follow and if we do what we see them do in the word then we will see the things we need crow in us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
