Have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

 

Have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth?
People want to hear what they want to hear!  We don’t like to be contradicted, corrected, opposed or rebuked.  Paul wrote to the saints in Galatia, correcting them for their departure from the Lord.  It was a hard message because they did not want to hear it!  So, Paul asked them “Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?” (Galatians 4:16).  Let us not turn our messengers from God into our enemies.
