Bible Question:
can someone help me to understand matt.10-34? i come to bring a sword,not peace. thanks very much tip |
Bible Answer: Greetings tip - although Jesus is called the Prince of Peace, the peace that He brings is only available to those who accept Him. The reference in Matthew underscores that each one must answer Jesus' question: "Who do YOU say that I am? (Luke 9:20). Even in "christian" circles, this question divides, for there are those who reject the Diety of Jesus Christ and in doing so they align themselves with "Antichrist." God's Word reminds us that we are in the midst of a great spiritual battle (Eph 6:12). I hope this helps in your understanding of this verse. Blessings, mommapbs |
