The Peace Of The Cross

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 8, 2021

Diplomacy has been defined as the art of saying, "nice doggie," until you find a rock. There is truth to this, but it is also true that one may want to say, "nice doggie" until the dog likes you, and becomes, in fact, a nice and friendly dog. That is being a peace maker.
