HE CAME TO FULFILL - PERSECUTION: REJECTED

Not all were to receive the Messiah’s words. It was prophesied that many would refuse to believe Him and consider His words as foolishness and blasphemy. 

When Yeshua walked on earth, He was not received by all. Many rejected Him, though He was the Word of God Himself. They did not recognize Him. Instead, they crucified Him as confirmed in John 1: 10-11 (NIV).

Yeshua bore rejection for us. He firsthandly understands what rejection feels like. Though He loved and healed and blessed people, they still chose to kill Him. 

“I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?”, asked them Yeshua in John 10: 32 (NIV). They still choose to crucify Him, though He was innocent and actually did good to them.  

They could not recognize their Heavenly Father. They could not recognize His love for them. Those who did will reap eternal life, but those who did not will sadly perish forever. Forever, they will be separated from Abba.
