Baptist Faith & Message 2000: Article 16 Peace and War
Conflict and violent confrontation have marked the human experience ever since Adam and Eve were cast out of Eden
Christians follow the Prince of Peace and are instructed to seek and honor peace
Seek Peace with All Men
Even as Christians are to seek peace, we are to do so on the principles of righteousness
Baptists are not pacifists
Position of Pacifists - Rejects all armed conflict
Christians must not love war or glory in armed conflict
Just War Theory
Rejects all armed conflict
The effort must have a just cause
The force must be employed with a just intention to secure a fair, lasting peace for all parties
War must be understood to be a last resort when all other legitimate means of settling a conflict have been tried and have failed
Objectives are limited to what is necessary to establish a just peace, that the use of noncombatants be protected whenever possible
(Some Include) A reasonable chance of success and a realistic hope that the conflict will lead to a superior, lasting peace
The Reign of the Prince of Peace
The Baptist Faith & Message 2000 states, “The only true remedy for the war spirit is the gospel of our Lord”
The peace Christ will establish is the peace of His Kingdom
Authentic Christian peacemaking take the form of evangelism and gospel witness, because peace among the nations can only come when individuals in those nations come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
Until Christ comes, we will have war.
But Christians must work and contend for peace
