For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Quote:Matthew 10:35-27
For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me."
Of course the first one is true, its nice. The second one is obviously not true because...
Both of them are true.
Whatever truth Christ had to share with us, is not something that can casually be accepted, as we continue on with our everyday life, but disruptive, throws a man's entire house into disarray. And if you're not willing to accept that, than it's not really for you. Christ didn't offer his followers a rose garden, but a cross.
