Luke 12:51

Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division (separation, division).
[The peace that Jesus gives is between God and man, see Isa. 9:6. We are urged to strive for peace with all, see Heb. 12:14, but not everyone wants it, see 2 Tim. 3:12. It is not God's will, nor is he the cause of division, but it is inevitable. There is conflict between light and darkness, between God's children and the devil's children, and this conflict even reaches members of the same family. When a person is saved and lives in the light, the contrast to their former life in darkness becomes very apparent. Former friends can become enemies when they feel judged, see John 3:16–21.]
