Jesus warned us: “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.”
It’s hard enough to follow Jesus. Some make it far harder by attacking those who choose to follow Him. We should pray for our brothers and sisters in danger, work for justice in places where none exists, and examine our own hearts to be sure that we’re willing to take our place with the martyrs, should that time come.
