Bible Question: What is Jesus saying in this verse -- that He came to break up families? |
Bible Answer: Conflict..."inevitable result of Christ's coming" Ed: (NASB) Matt 10:34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. Matt 10:35 "For I came to SET A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW; Matt 10:36 and A MAN'S ENEMIES WILL BE THE MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD. Matt 10:37 "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me." . . . "It is true that Christ came to bring peace -- peace between the believer and God, and peace among men. Yet the inevitable result of Christ's coming is conflict -- between Christ and the antichrist, between light and darkness, between Christ's children and the devil's children. This conflict can occur even between members of the same family" (p. 1382, Zondervan NASB Study Bible, Zondervan, 1999). |
