34 Don’t assume that I came to bring peace on the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
35 For I came to turna man against his father,a daughter against her mother,a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
36 and a man’s enemies will bethe members of his household.
37 The person who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; the person who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
38 And whoever doesn’t take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.
39 Anyone finding his life will lose it, and anyone losing his life because of Me will find it.
40 “The one who welcomes you welcomes Me, and the one who welcomes Me welcomes Him who sent Me.
