When certain individuals become stubborn, refusing to believe, and publicly speak evil of, "the Way, Truth, and Life," which you are proclaiming as a ministering vessel of the Holy Spirit, withdraw and separate the Faithful from them (John 14:6, 2 Pet. 2:2, Jude 10). Instead of continuing to argue with the obstinate, acknowledge that it is God who has the power to change hearts and remove yourself from that environment, continuing with all who believe, to ensure you continue discipling them for the advancement of the Kingdom of Heaven which consists, not of those with Jewish heritage alone, but is only entered by those who have been born again of the Spirit HaKodesh (Exo. 8:15, Ps. 81:12, John 3:5).
Moreover, our Lord and God who Saves, the Christ, instructs us, His faithful Followers, to leave places where we are not welcomed (Matt. 10:14). We should endeavor to move away from unproductive, hostile opposition to the faith and focus on nurturing believers.
PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, Heavenly Father and Awesome God, thank You for making me worthy by Grace, to share Your Word, through faith. Please continue to lead me to all who lack the knowledge of Your Saving Grace and those connected with them, even as You keep me protected from those who are hardened in heart and consumed with unbelief,
Amen.
From Acts 19:9
