It did not begin with you; certainly it will not end with you, they did to Jesus of Nazareth; ignoring Him, contempt Him but later they understood and declared by themselves that Jesus is the Lord. For it was prophesied in Isaiah chapter 53 that; For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. After all prosecutions and stripes to Jesus later they came to know the truth about Jesus and that's why in Matthew 27:54 it is written; "Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God".
This is the same to us who seek Him greatly and daily.
This didn't end with Jesus of Nazareth and Himself clearly said if they did those sort of things to a Master how about the servant. His Apostle Paul encountered it at Melita when the people of that Island thought that Paul was a really murderer; for he was saved from shipwreck and yet again dangerous snake wanted to take his life away, they didn't help him but they were just looking at him expecting his death, after sometime when they realized that he is not dying they declared him as a god while he was just a man with grace of God. As it is written in Acts 28:1-6 that; "And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita. And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold. And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand. And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live. And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm. Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god."
Therefore, since it did not begin with you; it will definitely not end with you, what you are doing in the Lord keep doing it they will soon change their minds and understand you. Though it's not easy, you need to catch more fire until all the truth revealed by the power of Holy ghost, Amen.
