War is an organized, armed, and often a prolonged conflict that is carried on between states, nations, or other parties typified by extreme aggression, social disruption, and usually high mortality. War should be understood as an actual, intentional and widespread armed conflict between political communities, and therefore is defined as a form of political violence. The set of techniques used by a group to carry out war is known as warfare. An absence of war (and other violence) is usually called peace.
In 2003, Nobel Laureate Richard E. Smalley identified war as the sixth (of ten) biggest problems facing the society of mankind for the next fifty years. In the 1832 treatise On War, Prussian military general and theoretician Carl von Clausewitz defined war as follows: "War is thus an act of force to compel our enemy to do our will."
While some scholars see warfare as an inescapable and integral aspect of human culture, others argue that it is only inevitable under certain socio-cultural or ecological circumstances. Some scholars argue that the practice of war is not linked to any single type of political organization or society. Rather, as discussed by John Keegan in his History of Warfare, war is a universal phenomenon whose form and scope is defined by the society that wages it. Another argument suggests that since there are human societies in which warfare does not exist, humans may not be naturally disposed for warfare, which emerges under particular circumstances. The ever changing technologies and potentials of war extend along a historical continuum. At the one end lies the endemic warfare of the Paleolithic[citation needed] with its stones and clubs, and the naturally limited loss of life associated with the use of such weapons. Found at the other end of this continuum is nuclear warfare, along with the recently developed possible outcome of its use, namely the potential risk of the complete extinction of the human species.
The King has planned the supper
For the wedding of His Son
And He sent out His servants
To invite the chosen ones
But they would not receive them
And they all refused to come
So He sent them to the highways
Inviting everyone
They came from every direction
They entered into the gates of the One
The One who called them
And gave them the right to sit next to His Son
Do you see
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
At the wedding of the Great I Am
They'll come from every nation, tribe, and tongue
All those with ears to hear Him knocking
There will be rich and poor alike
There will be old and young
He stands outside of the door
Not all will hear Him but there will be some
They'll hear the voice of the Bride
And the voice of the Spirit say, "Come"
Do you hear
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
At the wedding of the Great I Am
Oh, He's God's worthy Lamb
We'll drink from the Water of Life
In garments of white
With no end in sight
Did you know
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
At the Great I Am
It's your invitation
Your presence is requested
At the marriage of the Lamb
It's your invitation
To be the guest of honor
