Matthew 15:12-14 Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you realize you offended the Pharisees by what you just said?” Jesus replied, “Every plant not planted by my heavenly Father will be uprooted, so ignore them. They are blind guides leading the blind, and if one blind person guides another, they will both fall into a ditch.”
Do not worry that My Truth may offend some. It will. It is meant to. It is meant to sear their conscience and perhaps wake them up from the stupor they are in. It is meant to jolt them from the lies they are believing – lies from the enemy of their souls. It is meant to offend them, to anger them, to get them to react so that they may be shaken from the state in which they live their lives. It is meant to bother them so much that perhaps – just perhaps – it will cause them to see Truth. To seek Truth. To seek Me. What is more important to you? Being unoffensive and allowing those around you to walk into – to lead others into – ditches that will cause them eternal suffering? Or offend them with My Truth – in the hopes of awakening them to the lies they believe and leading them on to the correct path – the narrow way that leads to life everlasting? Which do you believe is more important? Which has eternal value? Do you want to be popular or please Me? Because, Child, they are often – in these days in your world almost always – opposites. Please man or please Me. Always your choice. But never underestimate the weightiness of that choice. It is the ultimate life choice.
