The One Year Bible - Day 219

Ah yes, the opposition to rebuilding Godly things. We expect opposition but who from? We can take opposition from non-Christians because they are obviously not going to understand the things of God completely. But these opposers were local people, potential allies, not foreigners. They represent for us other parts of our faith, whether other denominations or just groups of people within the church network who have the things of men in place of the things of God. How do we deal with these people? We confront when we need to, we defend and we carry on!
