  5. EIRENE = “peace, harmony, tranquillity, benefit, security, safety, prosperity and happiness.”

  6. The inner peace and happiness the believer gains through occupation with the person of Jesus Christ with the result of achieving the supergrace life.

  7. Thayer, “Of Christianity, the tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and content with its earthly lot, of whatsoever sort that is.”

  8. APHIEMI - Present, Active, Indicative, “I leave behind”.SU - “to you all.” “Peace I leave behind to you all.”

  9. The Lord Jesus Christ is going to leave us supergrace benefit.

  10. How do we get it? Bible Doctrine in your soul!

  11. EIRENE - “peace” or supergrace benefit.EMOS - Possessive Adjective - “my or mine.” The origin of peace is the mind or thinking of Jesus Christ – Bible Doctrine.

  12. This is also called Sharing the Happiness of God, which is the result of supergrace status in the spiritual life.

  13. DIDOMI – Present, Active, Indicative, “I keep on giving.” Jesus Christ is giving us His peace through His Word as a grace gift.

  14. SU - “to you all.” “Peace (supergrace benefit)I leave behind to you all, My peace I keep on giving to you all.”

  15. Doctrine of PeaceA. Definition:

  16. 1. Peace is the result of having a relationship with God, characterized as having inner peace and happiness. It is sharing the happiness of God when the believer is occupied the Lord Jesus Christ.

  17. 2. The relationship with God is established through adjustment to the justice (integrity) of God under three categories.

  18. a. Salvation adjustment to the justice of God by faith in Christ, thereby freeing God to give us His perfect righteousness, which permits Him to declare us justified. Rom 5:1; Eph 2:8‑9

  19. Rom 5:1, “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

  20. b. Rebound adjustment to the justice of God by acknowledgment of our personal sins, which permits God to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9-2:2

  21. c. Maturity adjustment to the justice of God by the daily PMA of Bible doctrine, which results in spiritual growth to the point of spiritual maturity and blessing from the justice of God. Col 3:15-16

  22. Col 3:15, “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful.”

  23. 3. Relationship with the integrity of God first means salvation, then fellowship with God, and finally blessing from God as mature believers.

  24. All of this adds up to the Greek word EIRENE, which means true blessing and true security.

  25. a. There can only be one true security in life.

  26. It is not through relationship with anyone else in the world, or by the possession of the accouterments of happiness.

  27. It is relationship with the integrity of God. Rom 8:6; 14:17, 19.

  28. Rom 14:17, “For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.”
