Not Peace, but a Sword

34 g“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. hI have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 iFor I have come jto set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 kAnd a person’s enemies will be those of his own household. 37 lWhoever 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. 38And mwhoever does not take his cross and nfollow me is not worthy of me. 39 oWhoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

John 16:33

33I have said these things to you, that pin me you may have peace. qIn the world you will have rtribulation. But stake heart; tI have overcome the world.”

1 Corinthians 9:26-27

26So I do not run aimlessly; I udo not box as one vbeating the air. 27But I discipline my body and wkeep it under control,
Greek  I pummel my body and make it a slave
lest after preaching to others yI myself should be zdisqualified.
