Luke 12:51 NKJV
“Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division.”
Luke 12:51 NKJV
This passage does not seem like what Jesus would do on the earth. In the natural, it looks like a disaster waiting to erupt.
Yes Jesus indeed came to bring division. He came to bring separation between two kingdom.
He came to bring people from darkness to light.
He came to bring people out of a lie to the truth.
He came to save those who were oppressed and to heal those who had been affected by sickness.
Jesus brought His kingdom against the kingdom of satan and a system of heaven against a system that operates under satan's influence.
Therefore, whoever rejects Christ and all that He brings will remain bitter, oppressed and afflicted by the enemy.
Therefore, though it sounds like a terror but it’s actually good news to all mankind.
This is because finally, mankind doesn’t have to be destroyed by the enemy and be trapped by His agenda but be saved by Jesus Christ Son of the living God.
The terror is towards satan and his plans.
The terror is against the system satan has trapped mankind in.
It is like saving a hostage from the enemy's camp and releasing prisoners free from injustice.
Paul also taught Timothy to rightly divide the word of truth and to stay in what Christ has established for us.
Jesus has established His kingdom on earth and given His children the power to rule with Him.
Let us get on God’s side and march on in victory every day.
Blessings
