       We may tell someone, who we are witnessing to, that the Bible says this or that about a particular thing. And the person may not like what the Bible says. And this can be true also for preachers and teachers of the Word of God, who stand before many and talk about a great number of things. There could be someone listening who doesn’t believe and doesn’t like what the preacher has said. They may come against the preacher personally, say face-to-face, or in the form of a letter, email, or Facebook message, or they may just speak bad about the person to others. Whether it is personal witness or preaching the Bible, there are going to be times we say things that people don’t approve of, and if you never find yourself caught in that type of situation, then perhaps you not being as bold or as forthcoming as you ought to be. Jesus said we are blessed as Christians “when” these things happen to us, not “if” they happen. Some preachers don’t want to say anything that offends, or very little and only when absolutely necessary to appease the more devoted folks.
