More and more, I see hateful Christians chalking up their disrepute to "persecution." God tells us otherwise. In 1 Peter 4 we're told, "If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed. …" And that's the truth; sometimes we are insulted for proclaiming the good news of salvation in Christ. But listen to what follows: "If you suffer, however, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler."
