IS PRINCE A PEACEMAKER?

Is Prince a peacemaker
Would he like that all people live on a peaceful earth?
Like John Lennon and Bob Marley were singing? Who else is a peacemaker?
J.L.:'Imaging people living in peace...'. B.M.:'We don't need no more troubles.
What we need is love...'

Prince sings in 'Resolution':'The main problem with war is that nobody wins. With love in the lead, resolution will follow.'

In 'Planet earth' he sings:'Pray 4 peace rigth now and 4ever'. and
'His kingdom will come' and brings peace and harmony on earth.

Is this the real solution for peace? What is (t)his Kingdom?
And what would you say: Is Prince like a 'Prince of peace'? Is he a peacemaker?

I think that a peacmaker should be 'kind', I love Prince but I do not think he is a very 'Kind' person from what I hear and read. I think that BONO is a peacemaker. biggrin

In answer to the question what is His Kingdom: He is talking of Jehovah's new paridise on earth and the new goverment from heaven that will rule the earth with Jesus as king.


Is he a peacemaker: No he is a messenger of the good news. He just wants people to know the true God and to live there lives for God. And to do this you have to have accurate knowledge of God.

I think he said, "Blessed are the cheesemakers."
What's so special about the cheesemakers?
Well, obviously it's not meant to be taken literally; it refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

Sorry, couldn't resist throwing in a Monty Python reference.

You are right sis., but to get there you have to live as a peacemaker already now.

And I'm sure Prince is a peacemaker, tries to live in peace with everybody
and speaks about the source of peace.As you do.

As long as Prince is the one in control and he gets his way always and everytime, there will be peace on earth!
Pity on those, who try to cross Prince! His wrath will destroy them!
love the one who is Love!

It's certainly very hip to be considered a "peacemaker" as a popstar. Famous people have always been expected to be role models and spread the message of peace.

But actions speak louder than words. To spread peace implies respect for the other and turning the other cheek etc... I wish Prince should start putting this in practice towards his fans and take on world peace on a later stage !

In short, it's very easy to sing about peace but before Prince turns into some kind of Ghandi he still has a long way to go....

Very good ! That's the answer.Matthew 5:9. The peaceable means Peacemaker.
And Prince is definitely one .
Because in his songs (Resolution, Planet earth) he sings about peace
and I'm sure he is humble and wants to live in peace with the next ones.
We should be all peacemakers and this planet would be different!
And it will be!

Prince would like to have peace on earth just like most of us. And I like the fact that he raises awareness with his music.
What other efforts does he make, if any, to make planet earth a peaceful one? Does anybody know of any actions to back up the music? Being in the public eye he could certainly do a lot to set a an example.
Don't know if Prince sees himself as a peacemaker, but he definitely knows who the ultimate peacemaker is and will be.
love the one who is Love!

JHWH IS LOVE and HE IS also a GOD of peace and through HIS Kingdom HE will
bring PEACE on the whole earth. To be there we have to be peacemakers already now.
And love the One who is love.
So it is written and so it will come!

lol If his fans,Youtube,e-bay,The Pirate Bay are the only problems in his life, Prince is truely a blessed man.
My question is: What is Prince really doing to keep the peace on planet earth, other than singing about it?
Sueing everybody doesn't seem very peaceful to me, and certainly doesn't do anything to keep our planet a peaceful one!
love the one who is Love!

biggrin Yes...He is a peacemaker! Just because he comes across as very aggressive at times it doesn't mean he's trying to make war! The man's got goals! biggrin
He gets it! That's why the ladies love him...batting eyes

A funkmaker and partymaker yes. But a peacemaker? Nah. He's no Gandhi.

A peacemaker is first of all something personal: To have peace with the people
around you.
And then he shows also the way to the true source of Peace:Jehovah God
and His kingdom.Soon it will bring peace all over the world.
And people don't care..

He is definitely a peacemaker.
