“ Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace but a sword.For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter- in- law against her mother- in- law,and a man’s enemies will be the members of his household.

You will be hated by all the nations because of my name.Then many will be led into sin, and they will betray one another and hate one another.
