2. God the Son is called the Prince of peace, Isa. 9.6. His name is Emmanuel, God with us, a name of peace; his Office is to be a Mediator of peace, 1 Tim. 2.5. He ⟨p. 279⟩came into the world with a song of peace; the Angels did sing it, Luk. 2.14. Peace on Earth; he went out of the world with a Legacy of peace: John 14.27. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you.
