Joh 14:27 “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Don’t let your heart be troubled or fearful. In New Testament times the normal way to say good-bye was Peace. In His death Jesus provided a legacy for His disciples: My peace I give you. They would have “peace with God” because their sins were forgiven and the “peace of God” would guard their lives. The world is unable to give this kind of peace. Fear of death and fear of the future are removed as Jesus’ followers trust in Him. Thus they need not be troubled.
