Are You Willing to Be Hated For the Gospel? 8.25.10

Matthew 10,21-27:

"Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will come forward against their parents and have them put to death. You will be universally hated on account of my name; but anyone who stands firm to the end will be saved. If they persecute you in one town, take refuge in the next; and if they persecute you in that, take refuge in another. In truth I tell you, you will not have gone te round of towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.

Disciple is not superior to teacher, nor slave to master. If they have called the master of the house "Beezebul", how much more the members of his household?

So do not be afraid of them. Everything now covered up will be uncovered, and everything now hidden will be made clear. "What I say to you in the dark, tell in the daylight; what you hear in whispers, proclaim from the housetops."
