Indeed. I only care what Christ thinks, not the Councils nor some of our brethren who disagree so vehemently with us.

That is correct sister, we must willing to go outside the camp and bear His reproach (Heb.13:13) and be willing even to reject one's own family (Matt.10:37)

[Marysecretary]

My family sometimes rejected ME when I gave my life to Christ. But I still loved them and even led a couple to the Lord before they died. Still working on my brother...only in prayer though. He’s so hostile sometimes to the gospel and I don’t know why.

You can’t just keep Christ to yourself. He wants to be shared with others. Their salvation is worth more than my comfort.
