| It is not like Jesus was accepted when he lived on Earth. He was ridiculed, persecuted and ultimately crucified. He was not liked by most people and lived a life of poverty while on Earth. We as Christians know that he suffered through this so that we can be free. He broke the yokes of bondage by doing this and gave us the opportunity for everlasting life. He didn't have to suffer like that while on earth. He didn't have to die on the cross for our sins but he loved us so much he did. He could have destroyed those that persecuted him on earth but he suffered through it with the good of us on his mind. When he returns to earth though he will return in clouds of glory, the king of kings, the lord of lords. |
