In Matthew 10, Jesus sends out his disciples into the world to preach the Good News. Before he sends them, he tells them why he came. He says in verse 34, "Don't think I came to bring peace into the world. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." What in the world does that mean?
The Bible teaches us that Jesus comes on Easter to bring us peace, but that's not the first thing he comes to do in our lives. He first comes to wage war on the thing that steals our peace: Sin. We often want to make peace with our sin, but Jesus comes to wage war against it. Jesus doesn't come to accept us and our sin, but rather accepts us despite our sin and after dealing with our sin. I believe Jesus wants to set us free in a whole new way this Easter, no matter how long we've been in church, by waging war on that which takes away our peace.
