The reasons the world and atheists hate Christians:

submitted by oppressed to Christian 1.8 yearsAug 20, 2022 13:16:08 ago (+11/-4)     (Christian)

1. The world hates us because we are not part of the world. (John 15:19 “The world would love you as one of its own if you belonged to it, but you are no longer part of the world. I chose you to come out of the world, so it hates you.”) and (James 4:4 “You adulterers! Don’t you know that friendship with the world means hostility with God? So whoever wants to be a friend of this world is an enemy of God.”)

2. We are hated because we follow Christ.(John 15: 18 “If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first.”) as well as Matthew 10:22 “And all nations will hate you because you are my followers. But everyone who endures to the end will be saved.”
Matthew 24:9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.”

3. The world hates God. We remind them of the God they hate so much.(John 15:21 “They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me.”)John 15:25 “This fulfills what is written in their Scriptures: They hated me without cause.”

4. People hate the truth.(Amos 5:10 “There are those who hate the one who upholds justice in court and detest the one who tells the truth.” Galatians 4:16 “Have I now become your enemy because I am telling you the truth?”)

5. The darkness always hates the light (John 3:19-21 “This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.”)
