WHY BORN AGAIN CHRISTIANS ARE HATED

-

It is important for all born again christians to know that they will be hated by the world and there are reasons why they will have this experience. One of the reason is their decision to give their lives to Jesus and follow his teachings. Another reasons why born again christians will be hated by the world was mentioned by Jesus in the book of John 15:18 saying “If the world hates you, just remember that it has hated me first"..... So this means that you are hated not because you are you, but because you are a follower of Jesus. So is all about Jesus and not you. Satan does not want the teachings of Jesus to prevail on earth, because he knows that His teachings are capable of redeeming man from sin. 

Furthermore, in John 15:19 Jesus also gave us another reason why born again christians will be hated saying...."If you belonged to the world, then the world would love you as its own. But I chose you from this world, and you do not belong to it; that is why the world hates you" (Good News version)

It is pretty clear why born again christians are hated as revealed by Christ. However, to survive all these, we have to hold on to the words of Apostle Paul in 1Thess 5:11 saying ..."And so encourage one another and help one another, just as you are now doing"

Our Lord Jesus Christ said in the book of Rev 2:25 ..."But until I come, you must hold firmly to what you have". Therefore, as a born again christian, do not be distracted by the trials, tribulations and persecutions projected by satan through human beings. Remain firm and hold on to what you have in Christ till the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

May the Lord give you the required grace to endure till the end.

Have you done something that you think is unforgivable? Beloved, cry no more because God has not condemned you yet. The only group of persons that has been judged by God is satan and his fellow fallen angels. Be reminded that satan is the one that keeps refreshing your past sins in your mind, to make you feel condemned like him, when God has not yet passed judgement on you or condemned you for your sins. Beloved, if you have made huge errors or committed shameful sins in the past, such that you feel and think they can never be forgiven by God, then this message is for you.  This message is designed to seperate you from those satanic voices that keeps whispering into your mind, saying ' GOD CAN NEVER FORGIVE YOU AGAIN '. Beloved, you have to know that the aim of these satanic voices is to keep refreshing in your minds, memories of your past sins or mistakes, to make you live with guilt and condemnation for the rest of your life. Do not forget, satan has been judged a

Bibery and corruption is a global issue and it seems to have been institutionalized in many organizations all over the world. In recent times, political leaders, national security agencies and tax collectors of nations are the most accused in connection with bribery and corruption. This has made the society to take their eyes off other individuals, organisations who secretly indulge in bribery and corruption. Bribery and corruption has been in practice for more than two thousand (2000 BD) years ago before the death of Christ. This is true because the book of 1Samuel 8:1-3 reported that the two sons of Samuel, Joel and Abiah who were both judges, accepted bribe and perverted justice. 1Samuel 8:1-3 " And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel. Now the name of his fristborn was Joel; and the name of second, Abiah: they were judges in Beersheba. And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after after lucre, and took bribes and perver
