The Lord Jesus Christ Divides!

It is amazing to hear when people who clearly do not know the Lord Jesus Christ speak about Him like they do know Him. For example, there will be people who believe that Jesus came to this earth to unite everybody to be one big happy family (regardless of their belief), and to love (what the world calls 'love'), because we are all God's children. This is foreign to the Bible. Nowhere in holy scripture will you ever find such liberal doctrine.

What did Jesus say when He was on this earth? Jesus said, 'Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.' Matthew 10:34kjv- What does Jesus mean? Jesus does not mean a physical sword, but speaks about division. Jesus did not come to the earth to unite everybody to be one big happy family (regardless of their belief) and have worldy peace, but to seperate those who are 'His sheep', from those who are not His sheep. He came to divide believers from the unbelievers. Jesus Himself divides the people of God (believers), from the people of this world (unbelievers) ~Luke 12:51.

The Bible does not teach that all people are God's children. The Bible teaches we are all created by God, but we are not all God's children. The Bible says about believers in the Lord Jesus, 'But as many as received him, to them have he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: John 1:12kjv- but the Bible also speaks about those who do not receive Him, and believe not on His name, For Jesus said to the Jews, 'Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do'. John 8:44a.

Worldly love has no room for godly judgment against sin (sin which has been accepted by this world). But the Lord Jesus said, 'And this is the condemnation, that the light is come into the world, and men love darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.' John 3:19-21kjv.

This is the reason many people form (mould) their own Jesus (false Jesus) to fit their evil deeds. They have a Jesus that has no problem with their dark evil deeds (which the Bible calls sin)- this makes them feel more comfortable. They mould their own Jesus who has a worldy love, and accepts what the world accepts as good. This is not the Jesus of the Bible. The Lord Jesus loves righteousness, and hates iniquity.

So as we have seen from scripture, Jesus did not come to bring everybody together as one big happy family (regardless what they believe), but came to make the elect (the believers) one big happy family in Him, to become sons of God,  to love righteousness and to hate iniquity, and one day be with Him in heaven.
