Typical response Lee, got the same from your partner. Remember they hated Jesus too, dismissed him as being possessed by demons. So your remarks only confirm your blindness. And reward my life with another truth from the Bible. There is no stock option here only your everlasting soul eternal death or eternal life.

As a result of the liberal and anti-Christian bias that is on many of our college campuses today, some Christians are either losing their faith or falling away from parts of their faith in the Lord due to the secular, liberal and atheistic views of these college professors and teachers.

Jesus has already told us that the truth will set us free. However, just the opposite is also true. Not having or seeing the truth, and not operating and walking in those godly truths, will cause us to become slaves to the devil. Jesus has already told us that those who sin will become slaves to their sins.

As a result, Christians are now made fun of, attacked and criticized on a non-stop and regular basis, both in the media and on the streets in real life. Christian bashing is now the “in” thing to do among many in the media and hollywood elite. We are now looked upon by many in the secular world today as outcasts, right-wing extremists, Jesus freaks and homophobes.

This 50 million dollar question is why – why do so many people hate Jesus and everything that He personally stands for?

“And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.” (John 3:19-21)

So you can see how strong and intense of a word “hate” really is, here are some definitions of this word from Webster’s Dictionary and several different Bible Dictionaries and Commentaries:

* To feel extreme enmity toward
* To have strong dislike or ill will for, loath, despise
* A strong negative reaction, a feeling toward someone considered an enemy
* An intense feeling of aversion or enmity, which could prompt a person to loath someone or something

Bottom line – we are all sinners and we all need a personal Savior in Jesus Christ to save us from those sins. This now leaves each person with one of two choices they will have to eventually make in this life.

If you can’t or won’t admit that you are a fallen sinner, then you will see no need to accept Jesus as your personal Savior. You will then become totally self-sufficient and totally self-reliant in your own tunnel vision, and you will then go on your merry way living this life as if you are in complete control of your own destiny. And this is the exact attitude and the exact path that many atheists, agnostics and secular people are now taking.

Bottom line – the main reason that so many in the world have always hated Jesus is because they know that He is God Almighty and that He has drawn a major battle line in the sand with what we can and cannot do in this life.
Jesus has set up the ways and commandments that we are to follow in this life. He has let all of us know, loud and clear, what the real rules of the game are and how we are to play this game of life.

As a result of not being able to admit they are sinners in the first place, many of these unbelieving and unrepentant sinners will hate Jesus and everything that He stands for. Jesus is a constant reminder of their own earthly mortality and of the fleshly sins they are living in – and they just cannot bear the thought that the paths they have chosen to follow in this life are the wrong paths

Unless you are grounded in the true teachings of Jesus Christ, you will not have the knowledge or the wisdom to be able to separate God’s truth from Satan’s lies and deceptions. The fact that so many highly intelligent people are falling for this secular and humanistic agenda, which is coming straight from the pit of hell itself, is perfect living proof of just how easily Satan can still deceive people like he did with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.
