Another favorite Bible verse of mine is Esther 3:8. O how I wish this to be Satan's complaint against us Christians everywhere we are found in our communities. The verse says, "There's a certain people dispersed and scattered among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom [USA, Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, Middle East.... everywhere] whose customs are different from those of other people [these fellows don't hate, don't backbite, don't envy, don't steal, don't womanize or manize; they are not prideful; instead they are forgiving; they accept everyone; they practice justice; they care for the poor; they are not selfish; they care less for the comforts of this world; they are on the inside what they say they are on the outside; they love their wives and submit to their husbands; they train their children in true godliness; they make their homes training centers for discipleship; they are trustworthy; etc...; they are a mess these people] and who do not obey the king's laws [of everyone for herself/himself or survival for the fittest]; it is not in the king's best interest to tolerate them" (NIV)..[the words in brackets are my own additions].

By God's grace let us all who desire to associate with Jesus be so complained about by the forces of hell.
