SCRIPTURE AND BOOK QUOTE

Luke 7:23 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

Quotes from the book The Bait of Satan by John Bevere

"Jesus would not be controlled by others. He would speak the truth even if it meant confrontation and ultimately offense. If you desire the approval of man, God's anointing cannot fall on you. You must purpose in your heart to speak the Word of God and perform His will even at the risk of offending others." Page 100

"When you live for the will of God, you will not fulfill the desires of men. As a result, you will suffer in the flesh. Jesus suffered His greatest opposition from religious leaders. Religious people believe God operates only within the confines of their parameters. They believe they are the only ones who hand an 'in' with God. If the Master offended the religious people as He was led by the Spirit two thousand years ago, those who follow Him will surely offend them." Page 107

Acts 5:29 "Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men."
