Mat 10:34 | MHM | STEP | v. 34 : Jesus says, “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.” The gospel brings true peace with God, but it also brings division among people, even within families. Following Christ may lead to conflict with those closest to us, because his truth challenges the world’s values and loyalties.
