“Do
not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you.” 1 John 3:13
They
are out there. They were there in the
times of Moses, Jesus, and the Apostles.
The faces change, but their message is the same – hate. They are the ones who will hate us because we
are Christians or because we attend church or because we refuse to help them
bully innocent people. When we speak up,
they are there to try to stop us by heckling or giving us a not too gentle shove. They are not above lying about us in hopes of
creating more enemies for us or making us look bad in the eyes of others.
We
have our own weapons – love and prayer.
We know we serve the God who is the master of the last minute victory
and we take comfort in this.
