A lot of childish Christians do not understand that they are not living a life whose root is God's teaching. Their life is not established in righteousness. They don't have peace, and they are totally ensnared in oppression, both being oppressed and oppressing others. Yet when they are in trouble for all of this they want to claim verse 17 as a promise to them.
Sometimes you wonder if people actually even read the Bible at all.
