Steynianism 54.0

“If the world hates you,

know that it has hated me before it hated you.

“If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.”Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you.

“If they kept my word, they will also keep yours. But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me.
John 15:18-21

Sure it’s a biased way for me to interpret the story, but then its my blog. Note that the Suzuki in no way addresses the criticism he gained about his ‘jail the politicians’ speech. Also note that he is very careful to state that the article is his opinion, because he knows that if he gets audited he’s in trouble.” In other news, “Announcing Church of Imam Suzuki – Church of England calls for Carbon Fast“.
