Boanerges

Those with hateful and judgemental religious spirits, those who are intolerant they don't wan't to give the mercy they themselves require. Also some tend to dislike things in others that they secretly hate about themselves.
An important thing to remember though; if God works all things for our good and He allows these people to come in contact with us there is always a reason. Sometimes they are used as what a friend of mine calls Holy Ghost sandpaper- God uses them to grind off our rough edges.Sometimes they are just there to help us understand that we must love even the unlovely if we wish to walk like the Master. And who knows maybe God sent them there for us to love them and show them there is a better way.
Alway remember this; we are moved by God or we are manipulated by the god of this world. People showing unpleasant charecteristics are giving an outward sign of an inward problem. They are in bondage and need the light and love of Jesus to set them free. Jesus help us to see them thru your eyes and our hearts will quickly change.

Never mind- I want to love the unlovely and be like Jesus, He died for those poor folks as well.
