Not Peace, but a Sword (MAT 10:34-39)

[10:34] “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

[10:35] For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

[10:36] And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household.

[10:37] Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

[10:38] And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

[10:39] Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
