3 Paths to Peace
Context: There exists between two or more parties "non-peace", i.e. strife, disagreement etc. Part and go separate ways.
1. Peace through persuasion
2. Peace through separation
Source on Inspiration:
Gen 3:23
23 therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was taken. 24 So He drove the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to the tree of life.
Observation: YHWH is pure and holy. Man have sinned and is no longer pure and holy. YHWH separates man from his presences in the garden of Eden on earth.
Gen 13:8-9
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no strife between you and me, nor between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are brothers. 9 Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me; if to the left, then I will go to the right; or if to the right, then I will go to the left.”
Observation: There is no peace, i.e. strife, between two groups, i.e. herdsmen of Abram vs herdsmen of Lot. For each between groups, there is "separation"
3. Peace through elimination
