Are you popular?

I am reminded again of a dream that the prophet Bob Jones had... it was that 2% of the people on this planet were in the line for heaven and the other 98% were in the line to hell...

This is very sobering. Just because everybody else is doing it, thinking it, saying it, doesn't mean it's okay. We are only supposed to please God but so many are trying to please man. Throughout our lives, there is always a quest to be popular, to be liked, to fit in. It is so tempting to just give in and not swim upstream. But, in doing so, we end up looking like the world, acting like the world, and being like the world. Jesus said the world will hate us if we are His children. His word says to be holy as He is holy. We are to be 'set apart.'
Peculiar.
