Romans 15:7

7Therefore receive one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

Ephesians 4:32

32Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

LORD says accept one another. Rejection is one of most painful emotion a person can experience.

Rejection is refusing to accept something or somebody. If I reject somebody what I am saying is disrespecting them or not acknowledging their worth or undermining them in some fashion.

John 1:11

11He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.

They have rejected Apostle Paul, throughout history they have rejected the Truth, the righteousness, they have rejected the person in the process. If you live a godly life you will be rejected, you will be persecuted. What’s important is GOD’s acceptance of you.

How we should respond to rejection;

Colossians 1:19-22

19For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

21Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior. 22But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation—

Atoning death of LORD Jesus Christ when He went to the cross He laid down His life for you and me; that was GOD shouting to the world the most effective powerful way that He loves us and we are worthy and He cares about us.

LORD Jesus Christ is living within you. Every believer has in His spirit the life of LORD Jesus Christ who is sitting at the right hand of the Father. In LORD Jesus Christ everything holds together, all in its fullness.

Colossians 2:9

9For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,

LORD Jesus says “Abide in me, and I in you.” John 15:4 so every single believer has the very life of GOD that makes us the child of GOD and we are indwell by the very life of GOD himself. We are the children of GOD because we are the life of GOD.

LORD Jesus said “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10 that is the real life, the true life that is the Son of GOD Himself.
