How do we know Jesus did not come to bring peace on Earth?

Jesus' declaration in Matthew 10:34 that He did not come to bring peace can be understood through the context of His mission. He came to bring reconciliation between God and sinners through His sacrificial death, thus establishing peace with God, which is essential for salvation. However, this peace results in division among those who accept Him and those who reject Him. The believing community often faces opposition from the world, which is at odds with the message of grace and Christ's exclusive claims, indicating that peace with the world is not part of His mission.
