I didn't come to bring Peace but a Sword | The SWORD that destroys PEACE
Have you ever wondered what did Jesus mean when He said "I didn't come to bring Peace but a Sword?" In this video, we're talking about the meaning of Matthew 10:34 to understand what Jesus meant when I came not to bring peace but a sword. This video covers two major understandings about Peace: 0:00 Introduction 04:14 Part 1 - John 16:33 “In Me you’ll have peace, in the world, you will have tribulation" 16:24 Part 2 - Matthew 10:34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword." - I DID NOT COME TO BRING PEACE meaning: In Matthew 10:34 Jesus says: "I didn't come to bring peace" but John 16:33 says “in Me, you’ll have peace”. Is this a contradiction or maybe there's a deeper understanding of the meaning of these verses? We know that the scriptures can not contradict each other, therefore we must look for a more accurate understanding of these verses. We first need to understand what "Peace" is in the sight of God that Jesus said, "I didn't come to bring (that kind of) peace". What kind of peace He is bringing and what king of "peace" He is not bringing, in fact destroying? In the Old Testament scriptures, especially in the book of Jeremiah, we read in multiple places that the false prophets falsely speak of "peace" when there is no peace. They say that they speak the word of God but those words are not from God. Therefore, there is a kind of peace that man tries to have with a wrong understanding of the Word of God which doesn't come from God nor from His Word. That's why Jesus says I did not come to bring that kind of peace. In fact, right after that, He adds, “but to bring a sword". Not peace but a sword! The sword is to destroy the peace that is not from God. Adamic nature has been toiling since the Garden, with no rest and no peace. Lack of peace forced man to seek it. He found it, but not the ‘true peace’, only that which is the result of the dictates of his own heart. Instead of looking for true peace, the internal reality becomes the result of what he himself agrees and accepts about life, and hence makes a 'false' peace. Despite this so-called peace, his soul will continue to undergo the narrowness and pressures of life. Lack of peace for the soul creates tribulation for the soul. That's why Jesus came to rescue the soul of man by bringing a peace that is only in the word of God, The sword! - NOT PEACE BUT A SWORD meaning: Jesus came to rescue the human soul. He first needed to break the false peace, and hence, He used the analogy of using a Sword. The Sword is the Word of God, the Logos. It is energized, active Word of God, that can separate, and make a division between those which had made peace, namely lies that were believed by the human soul, hence the saying of Jesus: "but I have come to bring Division". Therefore Jesus is bringing another kind of peace to destroy the false peace that mankind has. So definitely He is bringing a sword where false peace resides. Through that sword, He can cut through, remove the false peace, and then bring a different kind of peace. But what 'sword' does He use? According to Hebrews 4, “The word of God is alive and sharper than any two-edged sword“. The word of God is a "sword". So, Jesus came to bring "The Word". And that Word takes away the false peace that the soul of man has made with lies.
