“Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you no, but rather division” (Luke 12:51).
From the pulpit to the pew we recognize the gospel of Christ as the very thing that brings disruption. Every disciple points to the gospel as that which brought a provocation of such degree that it would eventually bring forth a transformational rebirth. By it’s very nature the gospel is unsettling; it gets under your skin; it speaks to the sin of our lives. Strangely, it is this antagonistic gospel that becomes the protagonist of peace for those who believe.
