Matthew 10:35-39

35 "For I came to ¹SET A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW;

36 and ²A MAN'S ENEMIES WILL BE THE MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD.

37 "³He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

38 "And ⁴he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.

39 "⁵He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it.
