Why Did Jesus Say, 'I Did Not Come To Bring Peace, But A Sword' (matthew 10:34)? by Digitmktguru(op): 10:45am On Feb 03, 2025
Why did Jesus say, 'I did not come to bring peace, but a sword' (Matthew 10:34)?"

You are misinterpreting it


If he came with a sword to kill

He would have killed all the people that wanted him crucified

That's the work of the Prophets of God!

Their mission will likely cause divisions in the family, cultural traditions, etc.

True faith cause a division in families as many will be tied to their sentiment and credulity while faithful people stick to the truth and those who love it no matter where such ones may come from! Matthew 12:46-50 smiley

Don't count Muhammad among the Prophets of God. His own mission on earth is quite different from others!

* Muhammad killed anyone that opposed his teachings and kicked against his allah!

* He married a girl of 6yr of age and also had sex with her which no prophet before him did!

* He established another paradise named aljanah where you will be having sex with houris. This is different from the paradise of God of Abraham

* He brought a pagan idol and made it your supreme choice in Islam

* His mode of worshipping his own god different from how Prophets before him serve the living God!
AbuTwins:
What mission is different that others didn't do something likewise?

The prophets of God brings messages that separates faithful people from the faithless ones but Muhammad's message has no just reason because Muslims are fighting and killing themselves over Muhammad's message! huh

At least you admit that only Jehovah's Witnesses are PRACTICING what Jesus taught so his statement is taking full course in our gathering even though we aren't threatening anybody with weapons other than SHUNNING them just as Jesus and his apostles taught us!

Wasn't there a time Christians were fighting Christians in the revolution and slave trade periods?

Does that mean Jesus's messages was also defective to Christians?

Jesus is the CHRIST.
He never fought a single war.
His first century disciples never fought any war.

Do you still think anyone fighting to kill his neighbours is a Christian? smiley

That's because Jehovah didn't militarise them.
Those whom Jehovah militarise fought for him.
Moses, Joshua and Samson for example.

And Jehovah didn't mention paradise for Christians anywhere in your Bible!

Jehovah allowed His worshipers to fight and kill nations who were against the establishment of pure worship in Canaan but after Jesus declared that pure worship is no longer about a particular location {John 4:24} there is no reason for true worshipers to fight and kill again because they must go out and help people of all nations to become worshipers of the true God anywhere they may be. Matthew 28:19-20

That eludes your Allah and it's prophet! wink

Jehovah is bloody! He encouraged people taking over others land just as Israel is stylishly doing today! I remember the story of Judah in Genesis 38.

Jehovah killed Er Judah's first son for an unnamed sin. Then he killed Onan the second for refusing to release sperm into his brother's widow and giving him seed!

The father Judah them impregnated his son's wife. Only for Jehovah to forgive them. These are the ancestors of Jesus in the Bible!

Selective killing!
Bloody battles!
Unfair laws!
Incest and fornication!
How can all these elude your Jehovah and his prophets?

And the Christian claim Jesus was like Moses! Moses fought wars and got married! He was not barren! He save people from Pharaoh before he died!

Jehovah never wanted to kill a single soul in the land of Canaan that's why He send a warning signal through what He did to Egypt the world's most powerful nation of that time.
If you were a citizen in Canaan would you have waited to fight against the people whose God single handedly rescued millions of people without a military force? smiley

Where did Jesus and Paul shun anybody. Have you ever read the parable of the lost sheep? That is not applicable to your (not Jesus') organization.

Jesus said he will shun goats {Matthew 25:34-46} and apostle John and Paul said we should shun goat-like individuals! Romans 16:17-18; 2John 10-11

Sheep like ones are always OBEDIENT to those taking the lead in their gathering! Hebrews 13:7

So if anyone is not ready to be a sheep such a person is not fit in our midst Jesus sent us out to gather the lost SHEEP of the house of Israel! Matthew 10:6

The question still remains,' why are you doing what Jesus didn't do?'

Why do not employing ' looking for the lost?'


Shunning is more convenient, shey?

John.6.67 - Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?

I am not faithfool Sir. Some disciples stopped following Jesus when they heard some hard truths, He did not make life miserable for them; you are telling people lies and follow those who reject with mental torture, aiming at destroying them.
