Gospel
When a rejection comes because of Jesus, what should we think? Last night I posted something on a board. Most of the time I just start typing and let the Lord lead. It's rare that I'll consider what I should say before I type. At the end of the message I typed something that is important to all people who would embrace the message of the Gospel in such a way as to alienate themselves from the world.
If I have some hedious defect on my face I might get used to people walking away from me. How could I blame them? I would not be "normal". If I have something wrong with my speach, I wouldn't expect people to invite me to speak to a large gathering. It's just not considered "normal". Now if I am critized because I stand strong for the message of the Gospel, I would think that I would be rejected as abnormal. But what should I think of that rejection?
This is what I posted: If he who drinks wine from a jar critizes the wine, should the jar take offence?
The Gospel belongs to God. It is my message as I repeat what He said and did. I am only a jar. He is the wine.
