Danger for Christians

We are in more danger when the world smiles than frowns;
when it praises than reproaches;
when it gives than takes;
when it knows than when it does not;
when it loves than when it hates.
“Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.” 1 John 3:1313Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. (1 John 3:13).
“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.” John 12:1919The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him. (John 12:19).
