A Rejoinder to Pope's Allegations Against Islam — Page 49
"34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. " (MATTHEW 10:34) Can anyone say in the light of the above statement:, that Jesus was the promoter of peace? Answer will be No. Because the message is very clear and no body can be deceived. Is not wolf in the goat's sleeve? Again see what Jesus is saying to his disciples, that sell your garment and by swords. "35 And he said unto them, when I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said nothing. 36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. " (LUKE 22:35-36) It looks Jesus had a hidden agenda. But failed, because Jews and Romans never gave him chance to do so. Jesus was always in hallucination of killing and slaying the other, it looks as if it was the aim of his life. This is what is mentioned in one of his parable what he narrated to his disciples; 26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him. 27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me. (LUKE 19:26-27) 49
