Exactly Brian. The only war being carried out by the kingdom of heaven,is a war on all that stands in the way of man being all that God desires him to be.

Kinda strange that Jesus left out the bit about the day of vengeance.

I wonder if He was quoting the words of Isaiah out of context ? Or was there was very good reason why He left that bit out ?
Not out of context at all. It shows that we should focus on the message of salvation as He did. The world has heard enough about the judgment to come which thing is true but let God be God. We should be about reconciliation as He was.
