Matthew 10:34-37

Not Peace, but a Sword

34 ^a“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. ^bI have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 ^cFor I have come ^dto set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 ^eAnd a person’s enemies will be those of his own household. 37 ^fWhoever 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.
