Description
"I'd rather be hated by the world for loving God than be loved by the world and shunning God."My sixteenth stamp, made by customizing a stamp template via Adobe Photoshop. (Image used in stamp found over the internet.)
(Created on 8-26-2011.)
It is not uncommon for others to desire acceptance. Many fear rejection. But what good will it be to gain acceptance by compromising your faith? Love should never be at the cost of your faith in God/Jesus.
God's love is eternal. He already knew you even before you were born. He loved you so much that He sent His Son Jesus to rescue you from eternity in hell in which we deserve for our sins. He did that for you. Future eternity in Heaven with God will be worth so much more than anything we can gain in the world today. So is it worth it to deny your faith before others?
"What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Matthew 16:26)
It is guaranteed that not everyone will be accepting of believers. It's not easy to deal with, especially to experience having friends and loved ones even reject you. But if you were ever put in a situation in which the world is against you, who would you choose to side with? The world or God? Where does your allegiance lie? When it all comes down to a great big shaking in our comfort zone, where will we turn to?
Feel free to put this stamp on your page if you feel the same way.

Yeah, we're taught Β to love an pray for enemies. But that does not mean we condone or support evil, murder, etc. We'll try our best to stop just as much as the next man/woman.

You claim you "don't support murder", yet you worship a being that says "obey me or die", and has supposedly murdered millions (if not billions).

He never says obey me or die. Look around the world, there are thousands of people who don't worship or obey in the world and they're alive. He gave us free choice, to follow what we wish. He's not forcing us to do anything.
As for murder, that's defined as, "the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being". Meaning, killing someone without being judged. For the people that were killed by God, and I'm assuming you're referring to that of the Old Testament where enemies of theΒ IsraelitesΒ Β either attacked or tormented them where struck with disease and such as murder. They were judged, I would think.

I can't see why Christians assume they're hated by America sometimes. Β Sure, talking about God makes everyone feel uncomfortable... but I've never once met another non-believer irl. Β I see Christian stuff out in public usually undisturbed. Β But some people get really shocked when they hear I'm an Agnostic.

Nonono, the thing is SJWs and look at the schools and even the US National Athem, It's gonna happen slowly but surely, anyone who believes in God will be hunted and shunned like wild rabid animals Β

To all Christians/Atheists: Whether or not God exists, just look on the bright side; you'll know the real truth for yourself, when your time comes.

That was when you were a militant atheist. I'm not sure if you are now or not and to be very candid with you; I don't care if you are or not
i'm not going to cast judgment on someone who i don't even know
