Jesus Christ: Prince of Peace?


I guess "Prince of Peace" is a common title for Jesus. I don't really know. There's that verse in Isaiah that mentions the phrase, and I suppose enough folks have applied it to Jesus. I know Mormon Church President/Prophet, Thomas S. Monson has. My question is, how is this title reconciled with Jesus's statement in Matthew 10:34-35?
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Just wondering...
