No matter how many times we might read the warnings of Jesus regarding hatred from the world, we still get caught off guard at times. It's moments like these that we would do well to remember just why it is that such hatred is in the hearts of the lost. As Pastor Gary will remind you in his message today, this hatred comes from the desire to hide evil deeds rather than repent. In his study, you'll learn that it's because the light of Christ exposes said evil deeds, many choose to stay in the dark at all costs.
