Abstract
Although religions teach peace, hope and love, massive acts of violence have been taking place in their names. Any religion can become a home of violence and fanaticism, and Christianity is no exception. The sacred texts of a religion influence and determine the views of an adherent on the world and other human beings. It is the sacred scripture that governs the life and world views of a Christian. This article treats the debates of the scholars on the Pauline usage of "?????????????" and proposes a relevant interpretation which will help the Church's peaceful co-existence in multi-religious societies.
