Still, nowhere in there does it say Jesus (or Paul) were hated.

Amen!..Laurina.The Bible shows the opposite. Jesus spoke truth yet he was more hated, to the point of death, than loved. Paul was stoned for speaking lies???I dont't think so!! Why was Paul hated....it was his testimony that was hated....his testimony of Jesus Christ.
Actually question & inspect. It’s not really agreeing to disagree if no one’s disagreeing in the first place.
No it’s a fact. It isn’t possible for you to experience being hated.
This is why it is not said anywhere in the Bible that Jesus or Paul were hated.
In your opinion it’s a fact..
It was said in the Bible that Jesus was hated...it’s there in his “ Living” word....therefore I suggest you take it up with God...
You seem “ blinded” to Gods truth...anyway I won’t be arguing over it.....you’re entitled to voice your own opinion as am I....I can only go by the word of God....not your word.
I’m also going to put you on ignore...I find you talk a lot of nonsense..which is boring and nothing that Glorifies God...bye,bye.
No. It’s quite literally not possible. Hate is an emotion.
Site the passage.
That would be opinion.
The Bible doesn’t say Jesus or Paul were hated.
Isolate & exclude if you like.
This is Jesus speaking here.
Imo/ belief.
Imo/ belief.
John 15:18-27
King James Version
18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.1. The world hates believers because it hates Jesus Christ (John 15:18-25).
Doesn’t say Jesus or Paul were hated.
I suggest inclusion, unity.
And acknowleding emotions.
The Living word of God, only the Holy Spirit can reveal the truth of Gods word to our heart/ spirit and “Yes” as we see here,Jesus warns his disciples.about the world “ hating”him.
Praise God that man can’t erase the truth of Gods word from our heart/ spirit and Praise God for the witness of the Holy Spirit..
In John 15:18-25, Jesus warns his disciples to expect persecution from the world. If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you… I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you.

Also remember.
1 Corinthians 2:14
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Phil has his own theory of what is and isn't reality.
I don't understand it therefore I can't fully explain it.
All I can say is, don't get frustrated arguing.
Just smile and keep on walking.

I disagree, and scripture has been cited in previous posts.
If you choose to ignore what is written in the Bible because "Hate's an emotion", that's on you.
An emotion that can be expressed and /or acted out and/or upon/ directed toward someone or something.

I just wish you hadn't used Oprah as an example for the opening post.
She's not a very good example.
João Teixeira de Faria, known as “John of God” and Oprah Winfrey’s one-time spiritual guide, has been sentenced to 99 years in prison after horrific accusations that include the rape and abuse of more than 600 women and young girls.
Along with that, he is accused of being part of a baby trafficking ring that sold newborns to childless parents.
He allegedly operated in Brazil, running “farms” of young girls, who were forced to have babies to sell. Victims were often reported missing or murdered after 10 years of giving birth, per multiple outlets.
“Faria’s faith-based healing skills drew the attention of TV host Oprah Winfrey, who said on her website that she interviewed him at his clinic in 2013 and saw him performing psychic surgeries.”
Be careful who you follow.

Random Acts of Kindness
Random acts of kindness is a beautiful “thing”.
I believe the beauty of such a gesture is without any consideration or foreknowledge of the recipients ….
Personal, political, religious, views.
IOW, it is Love from the Heart…and negates an interrogation to carnally determine if the recipient is worthy of kindness.
Glory to God,
Taken

It’s not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing. It either does or doesn’t say this in the Bible, and it doesn’t say Jesus or Paul were hated, and this has not been sited in previous posts.
The very point is - not ignoring that it does not say this in the Bible.
Hate is an emotion and the Bible was not written in ignorance.
Emotions are not things, behaviors or actions.
Emotions is intrinsic guidance.
Reality’s infinite, so there isn’t what is and isn’t reality.Phil has his own theory of what is and isn't reality.

Well, emotions play a big role in the bible whether they be intrinsic or not.
And it is how man is guided to do good or evil.
Emotions come from the heart. And we were born with them.
So whether they fit into your theory or not, they do exist, even if outside your scope of understanding.
It is what it is.
