Hi there,
As I am learning about Islam, I understand that Muslims believe some of Jesus' sayings.
May I ask anyone who feels comfortable answering, what you think about this -
“Do not think that I came to bring peace on Earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man’s enemies will be the members of his household. He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it.” - Matthew 10:34-39
Do you believe he actually said this, or it has been mis-quoted and/or altered? If this is true, I find it hard to grasp that the 10 commandments say "honour your father and your mother" and then Jesus (apparantly) sais this? What do you think people?
Thank you for reading, peace.
