DO NOT BE OFFENDED IF THE WORLD TRIES TO KILL YOU
Greetings in the name of Jesus:
Have you noticed how the general population in the world around us is beginning to feel about Goodness, Truth, and basic Christianity today? It isn't because they hate you; but because they hate being exposed for who they are. This world hates God simply because the very truth condemns them
Jesus speaks all of us through the words recorded in John 16: concerning the hate that we see all around us today. The political correctness of today is simply designed as a ploy to be used to make us think that being truthful and open about right and wrong is somehow hateful. There are many Christians who will easily get caught up in that trap and. become offended or ( Fall away) from the faith that they have in Christ by buying into this rhetoric. We are fast approaching the time when as Christ has said "Whoever kills you will think that he is doing God service", and so the history of persecution clearly tells us what happened in Acts 7:57-60 will happen again in the end times scenario. We need to be prepared for those days.
I believe that God will use this to prune away those who have become fruitless within the church body The message that Christ came to bring to us has never changed. We have gotten so easily offended through this ploy of political correctness that in general we become put off whenever we are even reproved or corrected through God's word. Those whom God has called to preach the word are setting forth the truth once again in such a clear light that we must accept it or reject it instead of trying to find an intellectual way around it.
As I have said so many times 'The truth does not change" We are the ones who change and vacillate throughout our lives, but this life is created to be that way; we are created to be that way as we become perfected spiritually. The law of God convicts our hearts of sin, but it is the part of God who lives within the core of us that transforms us into new creatures who are designed to dwell with God in His Kingdom forever more. The truth does not change, and the message does not change, but we are designed to change and to grow spiritually in ways that we never thought we could. The truth is that unless we do change we will never fit into the Kingdom of Heaven. As physical men and women, we can never touch that eternal and spiritual plane. This world hates the fact that it is only temporary. The world hates the fact that it can never create as God creates, but only can use the elements already created to form new uses for them. This is an old hate that has been since Lucifer guarded the throne of God. It is that jealousy and envy that has caused sin to bee in Lucifer, but it is the lack of remorse and longing to be the lord of all things that has sealed his doom.
When all is counted we are caught in a situation where as a creation we are hated by this world simply because we are loved by God. The enemy cannot stand the fact we have replaced him in the heart of God. The only natural revenge that this world has is to try to kill what it thinks of as its Jesus has told us to not be put off or dissuaded by the enemy, and if we are a part of Jesus Christ we are the enemy of this world. We should rather rejoice that we are known as children of God and that we are for all eternity kept safely in His hands. May you richly bless God through your life in Him.
