Jesus never promised his followers a bed of roses. If you expect to be loved by the world, you have wandered into the wrong religion. To the contrary, Jesus warned:
“Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. Matthew 10: 21-23 (NKJV).
“For you will be expelled from the synagogues, and the time is coming when those who kill you will think they are doing a holy service for God. This is because they have never known the Father or me. Yes, I’m telling you these things now, so that when they happen, you will remember my warning. I didn’t tell you earlier because I was going to be with you for a while longer.”
John 16: 2-4 (NLT)
In other words, it’s complicated!
Yesterday at the hearing on the SPLC’s role in manufacturing hate labels, Rep. Moskowitz pressed me hard on whether neo-Nazis are white supremacists.
Neo-Nazis generally fuse antisemitism with a belief in Aryan or white racial supremacy and dominance. That overlap is real. But antisemitism itself is older and broader. It shows up in Black nationalist circles, Islamist movements, far-left anti-Zionism, and other places that have nothing to do with white supremacy.
The SPLC once focused on actual extremists like the KKK and neo-Nazis. It has since drifted into labeling mainstream conservatives, Christians, and dissenting voices as hate groups. That expansion turns precise terms into blunt weapons. When “white supremacist” gets stretched to cover systems, statistics, or anyone who rejects the new orthodoxy, clarity dies and honest disagreement gets recast as extremism.
Words matter. Definitions should describe reality, not serve an agenda.

Do you remember Chariots of Fire?
“Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.

He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”
Isaiah 40: 28-31 (NIV).

Have you ever experienced the power and the mystery of the Holy Spirit? It is unfathomable.
“If you love me, obey my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth.
The world cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him.
But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you. No, I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you.
Soon the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Since I live, you also will live.”
John 14: 15-19 (NLT).
