If you read this blog all of the time, then it is no secret that many people hate Christians. This is to be expected because Jesus told His followers that they would be hated because He is hated. Matthew 10:22 reminds us, "You will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved." And Matthew 24:9 reminds us of these words,
"Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name."
"Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name."
So we know that people will hate us, and NATIONS will also. With that said, here is a short write up from the Sunday Catholic Weekly titled Hatred Towards Christians.
Last year over 100 Christians were murdered in the state of Orissa in India. They were burnt alive; they were raped, killed with axes and stoned, too. Archbishop Raphael Cheenath, who visited Poland on the occasion of the First Day of Prayer with the Persecuted Church, spoke about those brutal murders.
