Did you realize that when we worship and serve Lord that we are like a sweet aroma to him? On the other hand, did you realize that to those who do not believe, to those who in fact hate Christianity - we are like a stench in their nostrils?
We are a constant reminder to them that God is still there, waiting for them with open arms, that He still loves them and wants the best for them. Unfortunately, the enemy has harnessed their anger and bitterness toward toward God into blinding them to the truth.
How else does the non-believer perceive Christians?
As a blinding light that highlights every dark recess of their soul.
As a the sound of a bleating mule that tortures their ears, our "good news" is bad news to a person consumed in hatred, anger and darkness.
As a wrecking ball capable of tearing down every false idol and lie that the enemy has helped them create in their life.
Do you see why we are perceived as dangerous? We, the Body of Christ are a direct threat to the world system - the same as it was 2000 years ago!
