Greetings horsecamp,
Many do not understand why the name JESUS is so terrifying to men that they will hit you, spit at you, tell you to leave, tell you to shut up, reject you, persecute you and try to destroy you.
So why are the ungodly people so afraid of Jesus and why do they HATE his name? Could it be that the spirit they are of can't receive the Word as Lord of their life to follow so they can live? That is why we must be fisher's of men for the battle is not of flesh and blood, but in the spirit that we must learn to catch to bring them home to the Father's house to save them from the frying pan.
Following God's Word saves the soul,following the devils word kills, steals and destroys us.
John 8:42-47
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
