“Let the Peace of God Be the Umpire in Your Life”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Umpire<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Colossians 3:15  (New International Version)<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

15 <\/sup>Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

John 20:19-28  (New international Version)<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Jesus Appears to His Disciples<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

19 <\/sup>On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, \u201cPeace be with you!\u201d<\/span><\/span> 20 <\/sup>After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

21 <\/sup>Again Jesus said, \u201cPeace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.\u201d<\/span><\/span> 22 <\/sup>And with that he breathed on them and said, \u201cReceive the Holy Spirit.<\/span><\/span> 23 <\/sup>If you forgive anyone\u2019s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus Appears to Thomas<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

24 <\/sup>Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.<\/span> 25 <\/sup>So the other disciples told him, \u201cWe have seen the Lord!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But he said to them, \u201cUnless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

26 <\/sup>A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, \u201cPeace be with you!\u201d<\/span><\/span> 27 <\/sup>Then he said to Thomas, \u201cPut your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

28 <\/sup>Thomas said to him, \u201cMy Lord and my God!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
