Trouble Makers.....

There will always be trouble makers. They are stirred by jealousy. They refuse to research the truth, and even if they know it to be true, they will not accept it. Stay away from them, and please don’t ever join them. We serve God, Who is the truth. If we deny truth, as they do, we oppose God. I don’t ever want to be on a team fighting truth. There is no victory in that. When you fight against God, you will always lose. Just remember, God fights for us, so if you are fighting against Him and stirring up trouble in the lives of those who are on His side, you’ll suffer more than just a loss, you’ll pay the ultimate price with your life. A life without truth (God) has little significance.

5 But some of the Jews were jealous, so they gathered some troublemakers from the marketplace to form a mob and start a riot. They attacked the home of Jason, searching for Paul and Silas so they could drag them out to the crowd. 6 Not finding them there, they dragged out Jason and some of the other believers instead and took them before the city council. “Paul and Silas have caused trouble all over the world,” they shouted, “and now they are here disturbing our city, too. 7 And Jason has welcomed them into his home. They are all guilty of treason against Caesar, for they profess allegiance to another king, named Jesus.”8 The people of the city, as well as the city council, were thrown into turmoil by these reports. 9 So the officials forced Jason and the other believers to post bond, and then they released them. Acts 17:5-9
