The word “Offended” means, “to be\u00a0resentful or annoyed, typically as a result of a perceived insult.”<\/p>\n
For Yahweh so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)\u00a0Who could possibly be insulted or annoyed by this statement? Well, as it turns out, a \u00a0whole lot of people are offended by God’s simple declaration of love.<\/p>\n
Who does love offend? Well, love offends the author of hate, and murder. Love offends God’s (Love’s) adversary……. the Devil.<\/p>\n
According to some statistics I saw this morning, worldwide, 1 Christian is murdered for his or her faith every 11 minutes, which means that Christianity is the most persecuted religion in the world.<\/p>\n
True Christianity is built on Yahweh’s declaration of love for humanity through His Son, and man’s acceptance of Him. Since, the Devil has set up his kingdom on the earth, it makes sense that Christianity is the most persecuted religion on the earth.<\/p>\n
Don’t let this discourage you. Let this build your faith. Knowing that the Devil is not a good poker player, because he overplays his hand. The Devil shows his cards, every time he is offended by love.<\/p>\n
