You only have to read one of these threads to see the sort of hate and condescenion that is directed towards non-believers. That’s all I’m going to say on the subject.

To: All

Our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers [empaiktes] who will follow their own ungodly desires.”

These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit. But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.

Keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life. Be merciful to those who doubt; snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.

To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen (Jude 1:17-25).

hate and condescenion is not of GOD or Christ....

Do we fail at times inpreaching the GOOD NEWS? yes of course, we are all sinners in need of redemption...

The flesh can be beaten down and react wih anger and rage, that is why Jesus Christ said: To always pray to the *Holy Spirit*

For the flesh is weak, but the Holy Spirit is mighty powerful in Christ....

GOD Bless you.

On the contrary. Most of us were either unbelievers ourselves at one time and still have family who are unbelievers.

There's no *hate* towards unbelievers, any more than disagreeing with homosexuality or affirmative action is *hate*, or any other whining that liberals do.

Speaking of condescension, try being a believer and being told that you're intellectually bankrupt because you believe. It goes both ways. No reply is expected so don't feel obligated.
