Scripture: Matthew 10:34-39

Some understand Jesus’ claim to be the ‘Prince of Peace’ to mean that he sought to bring an end to all hostilities here on Earth…and failed. A kind of wannabe United Nations delegate. The reality is that he promised something very different. He said, ‘I have not come to bring peace, but a sword’. Maybe we write Jesus off too quickly on the basis of false assumptions.
