Book Description
Excerpt from An Abridgment of John Wroe's: Revelations on the Scriptures and Divine Communications, Also Several Prophecies The ancient prophets suffered much, not merely from the openly profane, but from the professed worshippers of the God of Israel. Christ, his apostles, and primitive followers, had more to contend with, and to suffer, than generally falls to the lot of man. Some said of the Lord Jesus Christ, "He is a good man;" but others replied, "Nay, but he deceiveth the people." John, vii. 12. At one time, "All bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth." Luke, iv. 22. But by and by, "They rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill, whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong." 29. By some he was declared to be mad, and that he acted under satanic influence. "He hath a devil and is mad; why hear ye him?" John, x. 20. and surely human nature continues the same, "The carnal mind is enmity against God." Romans, viii. 7. And, as then, he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Galatians, iv.29.
