"Now he was casting out a demon that was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke, and the people marveled. But some of them said, "He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of demons…." Luke 11:14-15(ESV) Haters are going to hate. Gathering with people to spread rumors, gossip, and your misguided opinions is evil. These people had no desire to examine the evidence; they desired to disqualify Jesus by associating Him with the Evil One. Leaders who lead are always in a tough position. Those who are doing nothing but watching are in the prime seats of criticism and have often perfected their slander craft. Leaders can spend a lot of time correcting them, or they can continue to work, respond minimally as necessary, and see how their personal beliefs work out. Jesus, the creator, and sustainer of life, answered his critics with a few choice words and a life well-lived, as should I. |
