Following Jesus Will Bring Division

Following Jesus Will Bring Division | July 31, 2022 Sermon

Jesus was passionate about the mission given to Him by His Father. There was a zeal for it and a drive to carry it out. His desire was harmonious with the Father's desire. He wanted to please His Father. Jesus has called us to continue in that mission of bringing the good news of salvation to a lost, divided, and dying world. May we desire to be brought into harmony with Him in living out our calling. The good news is inspirational and challenging and like all divine messages it gets a variety of responses. It is not that Jesus came to bring division, but His message would do so, as some would reject it. Peace was His desire and His gift to all His followers, but separation and judgment will be the punishment for those who reject Him.
