were already kindled! "But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how
distressed I am till it is accomplished! "Do you suppose that I came to
give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division."
Acts 10:36 NKJV -
""The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace
through Jesus Christ--He is Lord of all--"
Luke 2:14 NKJV - "Glory
to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"

Answer:
The Lord Jesus came to this world to burn the sin. He
came to this world to establish the peace on the world by sacrificing His body
for the sin. The eternal peace is given to the ones who believed in him.
His motive is to break the relationship between the
sinners and righteous as in Psalms of David 97:7-9. The gospel of good news which
was preached by Jesus caused a great fire among people. The unbelievers of
Christ oppressed the believers of Christ. Stephen, other disciples of Jesus,
martyrs were burnt by this fire. Jesus,
who understands the inner thoughts of men and their rejection, told that he did
not come to bring peace on earth but a sword even though he preached peaceful
good news.
