Mat 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Mat 10:35 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.
Mat 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Luk 2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Heb 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.

Jesus wants peace between all people which the Bible says follow peace with all men with holiness without which no person shall see the Lord.

But Jesus had to come and bring salvation to the world, and because of that it will divide families, and people of the world who will argue with each other, and fight with each other over whether they believe in Jesus or not.

But so be it for Jesus had to come to bring salvation even though it will cause the world to fight with each other over that.

And terrible fighting it has caused as Islam went against Christians, and families were in great disagreement whether they believe in Jesus or not, and people fought against the truth for years.

you mean warning them of Luke 😋
Don't twist my words-MANY are already in a STATE of lukewarmness-

Rev 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Rev 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
Rev 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
Rev 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Rev 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Rev 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Rev 3:22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

In the kingdom theres a father with his head held up high

Shining glory all around, right across his big blue sky


In the heart there is a jewel and it shines just for you.

Bringing hope and peace for all all that would welcome it to

You feal like there is fight that helps you get along.

[Verse 1]
C C/B Am
I am just a poor boy, though my story's seldom told
G
I have squandered my resistance
G7 G6 C
For a pocketful of mumbles such are promises
C/B Am G F
All lies and jest still a man hears what he wants to hear
C G F G C
And disregards the rest

C C/B Am
When I left my home and family I was no more than a boy
G
In the company of strangers
G7 G6 C
In the quiet of a railway station running scared
C/B Am G F C
Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
G F G C
Looking for the places only they would know

C C/B Am
Asking only workmans wages I come looking for a job
G
But I get no offers
G7 G6 C
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
C/B Am G F C
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there
G C
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

Now the years are rolling by me, they are rocking evenly

No, it isn't strange, after changes upon changes we are more or less the same

After changes we are more or less the same

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone
G G7 G6 C
Going home where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Em Am
Leading me-e
G7 C
Going home

C C/B Am
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
G
And he carries the reminders
G7 G6 C
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down or cut him till he cried out
C/B Am
In his anger and his shame
G F C
"I am leaving, I am leaving." but the fighter still remains
G F G C
Hm, hm, hm

One of my favorites.

well we have things in common, even Jonah is one of my favourite stories in the bible. But I never heard of the name Johann before, but i like that name, nice to meat you johann and welcome to cc 😊

As I said before my answers might be short and sweet at times, because I don't have time much.

But I think we can have a good discussion soon.
