I Want to Find Inner Peace

Jesus Christ died for you! The son of God was scourged and battered for your sake. He came to pay a debt He did not owe because you who owed it could not pay it. As a sheep to the slaughter, He was crucified; sinless and without blame, He was, and yet words and thorns were hurled at Him; and through it all, He spoke not a word. He proclaimed not evil against His prosecutors, for their injustice, and neither did He cry His Innocence; all these, He did because of you!  He knew that all that must happen, leading on to crucifixion, so that with His death - the Lamb of God laid out just as a sacrifice - you might be able to come into salvation, being bought into His righteousness (for He lived a sinless life living by God's law, His delight being in the fear of the Lord.)

He who was rich, full of glory, left His heavenly abode and became poor for your sake that you might be bought out from being a slave to sin to a child of God; from death to eternal life; from Hell to Heaven; from tribulations to testimonies; from Conquered to Conqueror; from sufferer to succeeder.

Repent of your sins and accept Christ as Lord and Saviour; believe the Gospel, the report of Christ. Have faith in Him.
If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. No longer shall the devil have authority over your life, working hard against you.

Jesus loves you. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand; God's great day of judgement is near. Please, repent.

Kingkyrie-

Again, sir, your ignorance is as evident as the skies are.

Answer me this, dear sir.
A kingdom is at war; to faster solve the dispute, it was decided that both sides should choose a warrior who would fight to the death. A soldier of the kingdom cried out to his king that he be allowed to stand for them, crying out loudly and boldy, and his king permitted him.
Though it was the king who is penned as he who sent him, because he permitted him, who actually was it who requested that he represented?

The bible makes it known to us that Christ came to die for us; and this, He did, because He loves us (unconditionally).
1 John 3:16
By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

John 10:17-18
For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from my Father.”

God did not punish mankind with suffering, it was mankind who AUTOMATICALLY brought it upon himself when he disobeyed God. God discretely warned that they not eat of the fruit of that tree or they would die, but they chose instead to do otherwise, and they by that, brought death and sin into the world; and we, the offsprings, suffer of this also because our parents chose disobedience instead. To cancel their error - our statement - and bring us back into righteousness, Christ laid His life down that we might live.
When the breadwinner is brought to nothing, financially, will not all those who solely depend on Him - nuclear and extended family, and even friends - suffer from it too?
Let us apply reasoning, sir.

God does not force man to worship Him. What joy is there in receiving something not from the heart? Those who are His - christians - do not worship Him out of a command too; we worship Him because we WANT TO. In the presence of God, there is fulness of joy. You see as people go to music concerts and are all elated there? Well, a fellowship with God, either by one's lone self or with fellow persons, is full of joy and peace and wisdom. Our delight is in our Father and we love Him whole-heartedly. Those who are His, are is.
