Matthew 10:34

Think not. Jesus here dispels the mistaken opinion that some of the disciples apparently had, that the message they were to bear would result in nothing but harmony. They were not to be surprised, in their house-to-house work (see on vs. 11-13), if differences arose as a result of their ministry.

To send peace. Christ is the Prince of Peace. He it was who brought the peace of heaven to earth and imparted it to men (see on John 14:27). However, when a man makes peace with God (see Rom. 5:1) he is frequently counted by the world as an enemy (see 1 John 3:12, 13). Christ came to set sinners at peace with God, but in so doing He also inevitably set them at variance with all who refuse the offer of peace (see on Matt. 10:22). The Christian must never seek, or be content with, the peace that comes through compromise with evil. For the true Christian it is not a matter of peace at any price.
