       Many surely will in fact respect us for the good behavior they see in us. However, some are really bothered by it. And those who don’t like it will likely speak out against us, as Jesus said. They can persecute us, to use a strong word, by what they say or the actions they take against us. They can even make up things about us and tell other people because they don’t like us. This can happen to famous Christians, and it can happen to ordinary, everyday Christians. It happens in the media, or at school and the workplace. This can be particularly apparent and true when we have said things that certain people don’t like. Again, if we are followers of Jesus, we are going to be talking about Biblical things with people, sometimes on purpose or sometimes just through the natural flow of our Christian character. And if we talk about things that people don’t like, sometimes they are going to get upset. Usually, it has to do with sin. We may tell someone, who we are witnessing to, that the Bible says this or that about a particular thing.
