Jesus speaks about the divisions His message will bring. He states that He did not come to bring peace but a sword, meaning His teachings will cause conflict, even within families. He emphasizes that loyalty to Him should surpass all other relationships and personal sacrifices. Those who love family or their own life more than Him are not worthy of Him. Jesus calls for self-denial and taking up one's cross to follow Him. He assures that those who find their life will lose it, but those who lose their life for His sake will find it.
