One would think that "peace," a term that occurs as many as one
hundred times in the New Testament, would enjoy a prominent place
in theological and ethical textbooks. Yet it is surprisingly
absent. Willard Swartley's "Covenant of Peace" remedies this
deficiency, restoring to New Testament theology and ethics the
peace that many works have missed.
In this comprehensive yet accessible book Swartley explicates
virtually all of the New Testament, relating peace -- and the
associated emphases of love for enemies and reconciliation -- to
core theological themes such as salvation, Christology, and the
reign of God. No other work in English makes such a
contribution.
Swartley concludes by considering specific practices that lead
to peacemaking and their place in our contemporary world.
Retrieving a historically neglected element in the Christian
message, "Covenant of Peace" confronts readers anew with the
compelling New Testament witness to peace.
