The media loves no minority more than Muslims. After ISIS brought a resurgence of radical Islamic extremism to the world, many in the press have taken it upon themselves to protect the image of the Muslim faith. Meanwhile, they continue their daily attacks on Christians.
The protectionism with which the press surrounds Islam might be understandable if it weren’t so hypocritical.
But their credibility takes a dive when you consider how willingly they demonize Christianity. While terrorists are killing innocent people across the world in the name of Islam, the press withhold most of their condemnation for Christians who oppose gay marriage and abortion.

Life is filled with choices and every choice has consequences. In grammar school, a student who befriends an unpopular boy or girl will lose friends and be made fun of. In high school, a student who refuses to give up his or her virginity will lose dates and be laughed at. In the workplace, if you live a life of integrity you’ll be passed over for a promotion. In the senior years, if you invest your time and money in the church you’ll miss out on various memories and material possessions. In the political realm, if you’re vocal about your favorite candidate, there will be those who disagree with you. In the spiritual realm, if you follow Jesus Christ, you will be hated. That’s right: HATED! Whether you like it or not, the Bible is clear that Christians will be hated and rejected by the world.
In John 15:18-16:4,1 Jesus explains why the world hates Christians. Naturally, I recognize that this will not be welcomed as a “feel-good sermon.” However, it does feel good to know that Jesus warned us in advance. As you reflect on Jesus’ words, ask yourself: Have I adopted a cultural Christianity or a cross-centered Christianity? Today, Jesus will say: It’s better to be loved than liked. In other words, it’s better to experience Jesus’ unconditional and eternal love than to win a popularity contest and be liked by the world.
In 15:18 Jesus declares, “If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before it hated you.”4
