John 15:19 (New Living Translation)
The world would love you as one of its own if you belonged to it, but you are no longer part of the world. I chose you to come out of the world, so it hates you.
Christians are no longer part of the world. We have opted out for something else. That is one of the reasons that those in the world hate Christians – we have rejected the world.
Perhaps we can spin this and say that we have chosen Christ and not really rejected the world. Well, choosing Christ implies a rejection of the world.
No one likes being rejected. No wonder they hate us.
