NO LONGER OF THE WORLD
John 15:19
If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Personal Challenge
Have you ever been confronted because of your relationship with Jesus? Do you find yourself at odds with the politics of this world, not able to agree or side with any party or platform? Do you feel out of sorts with the world around you because you long for the "Promised Laud"? Jesus told His followers, and us, that if we are following Him, living the way that He wants us to live, then all of these things will be true because through Him, we are no longer residents in this world. He has brought us into His Kingdom and the world around us hates us for this. As Christians we should be uncomfortable in this earthly realm. We should be at odds with the things of this earth. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
