Satan and his helpers love to plant seeds of doubt and the cost is eternity in the lake of fire!!!

Where in the bible does God "promise" humans world peace?

And what other "promises" has God made that hasn't happened yet?
He promised to return and that hasn't happened yet. But I already see new Jerusalem in our advanced technologies and lifestyles.

Did God "promise" world peace?
Revelation 20:1-6

King James Version

20 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

There will be peace in the end because we will repent of our sin and there will be no more trouble. Those who don't repent of their sin won't be allowed into the party.

We pray the Lord's prayer: " ... thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven ..."
There is peace in heaven and therefore His peace shall be on earth as well. Jesus is the Prince of Peace; but He must first judge the world, and put down sin, evil, Satan and his horde before we can experience this peace on earth.

Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore." Isaiah 2:4)


The curse on creation, the botanicals and the animal kingdom will be removed and the entire world will live in peace.

“that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. Romans 8:21-22

Isaiah 11:6–9 "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. The cow and the bear shall graze; their young ones shall lie down together; and the Lion shall eat straw like the ox. The nursing child shall play by the cobra's hole and the weaned child shall out his hand in the viper's den. They shall not hurt nor destroy in My Holy mountain. For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea."


>>>Notice, that everyone on earth shall worship the true God. Also, this describes the first earth, not the New Jerusalem, since there are mountains, nations and seas.

"Until the Spirit is poured out upon us from on high,
And the wilderness becomes a fertile field,
And the fertile field is considered as a forest.
Then justice will dwell in the wilderness
And righteousness will abide in the fertile field. And the work of righteousness will be peace,
And the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
Then my people will live in a peaceful habitation,
And in secure dwellings and in undisturbed resting places;" Isaiah 32:15-18



>>>The nations of the world will live in peace with Jesus as their ruler.
The meek shall inherit the earth ... a peaceful earth!
