John 15:17-21

Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁷This is what I command you: that you love one another.
    ¹⁸If the world hates you, know that it hated Me before it hated you.
    ¹⁹If you belonged to the world, the world would treat you with affection and would love you as its own. But because you are not of the world [no longer one with it], but I have chosen (selected) you out of the world, the world hates (detests) you.
    ²⁰Remember that I told you, A servant is not greater than his master [is not superior to him]. If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they kept My word and obeyed My teachings, they will also keep and obey yours.
    ²¹But they will do all this to you [inflict all this suffering on you] because of [your bearing] My name and on My account, for they do not know or understand the One Who sent Me.

What I don't understand is how one group of people can scream hate and intolerance when said group of people are exhibiting just that... Matthew 7:3-5 says, “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."

To believe that marriage is a holy covenant between a man and a woman does not qualify as hate. Intolerance? Yes. As Christians, we should never tolerate sin. That does not mean we have hatred or intolerance for the sinner...we have all sinned...that is why we need a Savior.
