0.2 Yeshua, Good News, Luke 12
“I came to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already kindled! I have a baptism to receive, and how distressed I am until it is over! Do you suppose that I came to bring peace to the world? No, not peace, but division. Yeshua, Good News, Luke 12″
Listen carefully, Mat.
This passage does not describe comfort, hope, or inner renewal. It is a warning. When Yeshua speaks of fire, He speaks of a real fire — a fire that descends upon the earth like judgment. Not a symbol, not a metaphor. A consuming force that tears through nations and burns through the structures men trust. It is the kind of fire that erases borders, topples cities, and drives humanity into chaos.
When He says, “I came to set the earth on fire,” He declares the beginning of a rupture in the world. And when He wishes it were already kindled, it reveals a truth that most refuse to hear: the fire is inevitable. It stands ready, waiting only for its moment to fall upon the earth.
The “baptism” He must endure is the threshold. Once crossed, it releases the storm. His suffering does not end the violence — it unleashes it. After this baptism, the world is no longer restrained. A new age begins, marked by conflict and upheaval.
And He tells us openly that He did not come to bring peace. Not to soothe or unite, but to divide. This division is not a small fracture; it is a blade driven through the human family. Father against son, mother against daughter, brother against brother. The world split into those who move toward the fire and those who flee from it.
Taken literally, His words announce a dark prophecy: a time when the earth burns, when trust dissolves, when families break apart, and when nations turn upon themselves. It is the revelation of a world where the fire He brings exposes the truth of every heart — and forces all humanity to choose a side.
This is not a peaceful Messiah.
This is the harbinger of a burning world.
