The Peaceful Salutation
Matthew 10:12-13
And when you come into an house, salute it.…


1. The clergyman is to be the minister of peace.

2. But it all depends upon adaptation — the peace is to the house, but the question whether " the house " or any one in it can hay,-, the "peace" turns upon the point of adaptation. "If the house is worthy" i.e., if there be fitness in the house to receive it. What that peace means:

1. It is peace with God.

2. It is peace through the blood of Jesus Christ.

3. It is a peace within.

4. It is peace with the whole world.

(J. Vaughan M. A.)
