So did Christ! Are we not to follow His example? Did He not say people would hate us for who we are, and what we said? How many of you know this already? Except that Jesus was hated for what He said in Truth. If you are going to suffer...it had better be for what He wants you to do, and not to justify a personal agenda. Otherwise you suffer in your own unrighteousness. And what good will this ulimately accomplish in bringing the Truth to others? Gideon |
