Those who oppose Christianity, hate Christians or hate "the Christians' God," do so out of their lack of knowledge about God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. They know a "little" about Him,i.e., His name; He was a teacher, prophet or "good man;" He claimed to be God's Son; the people who believe in Him are all hypocrites, therefore, He is not good; etc. These who reject Jesus Christ have not sought knowledge through the study of the Bible or even their own personal pursuit of Him. For the most part, they have let social opinion, cultural tradition, worldly wisdom and/or personal, hurtful experiences define Him and determine His value. Some have stumbled but have kept pursuing to know Him and He has met them and lifted them up and revealed Himself to them. Others are perfectly satisfied with what little they know and have no desire to investigate further for fear that knowing more of Him will require something from them. Still others have stumbled over what little they know of Him and have "gone sprawling"--sprawling into darkness and further sin--without a hand to lift them up. Many of these people have gotten stuck in the rut of ignorance and unbelief and can't, or won't, go any further than their own incomplete knowledge of Him. And their rut is becoming their grave. Think about it.
