Division » Jesus Christ coming for the purpose of dividing
When the son of man shall come in his majesty, accompanied with all his holy angels, he shall sit upon the throne of his glory. then all nations shall be assembled before him, and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates his sheep from the goats. and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
but whosoever shall renounce me before men, him will I also renounce before my father who is in heaven. don't imagine that I am come to bring peace upon the earth: I came not to bring peace, but war. my coming will occasion discord between the son and his father, between the daughter and her mother, between the daughter in law and her mother in law: read more.
even a man's own domestics shall prove his foes.
even a man's own domestics shall prove his foes.

for the future, if there are five persons in one family, they will be divided; three against two, and two against three. the father will be at variance with his son, and the son with the father: the mother with the daughter, and the daughter with the mother: the mother-in-law with the daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law with the mother-in-law.
