Below are Jesus' words. Jesus never advocated any form of violence or dominance. Instead, He
commanded us to love, show mercy, and to forgive others. It is inconceivable that Jesus would support war.

"But I say to you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse
you.   If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?   For even sinners love those who love them.   And
if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you?  For even sinners do the same." Luke 6:27-32

The words of Krishna from The Bhagavad Gita also promote peace.

“Be fearless and pure; never waver in your determination or your dedication to the spiritual life. Give freely. Be
self-controlled, sincere, truthful, loving, and full of the desire to serve...Learn to be detached and to take joy in renunciation. Do not get angry or harm any living creature, but be compassionate and gentle; show good will to all. Cultivate vigor, patience, will, purity; avoid malice and pride. Then, you will achieve your destiny.”

The prophet Muhammad also speaks of peace.

“Shall I not inform you of a better act than fasting, alms, and prayers? Making peace between one another: enmity and malice tear up
heavenly rewards by the roots”

Buddha speaks of peace.

“Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee of peace.”

There must be peace in the nations.
