Duane:
I just had an upsetting experience with a family member who expressed that she had a "spiritual concern/question".  (She wanted to ask an older, mature Chrisitian, as Dad has passed away.) 
Both of us having the same spiritual upbringing, I offered to contribute my opinion if she would ask  the question of me.  Her response was "NO!  You are so spiritually 'off  base' with this Ray guy, thAT I DON'T WANT TO KNOW, READ OR HEAR ANYTHING THAT YOU OR HE (RAY) HAS TO SAY!"                Ouch!
So don't feel alone!

Deborah-Leigh:


Joh 15:18  If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
Joh 15:19  If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Luk 6:22  Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

Hello Duane,

I think all of us who understand and believe what Ray has taught us now know, at least to a lesser degree, what type of persecution Paul and the early Christians sufferred.  And despite our being being outwardly offended and hurt by this persecution from our friends and loved ones, the greater pain we suffer is that of a broken heart over their subconscious hatred for God and His truth.

But we must journey on and be a light for those few who God has chosen to see it clearly.  This is our true path and purpose. And my heart overflows with unspeakable joy that He has given me the opportunity to shine for Him!

Wishing you peace and strength,
Annie
