Wherefore we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily beset us (sets us back), and let us run with patience the race that is set before (each of) us.
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and now is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Of whom the whole world was not worthy.
Not only Jesus, but all those around us who stood on faith to show mankind the Father.
They (we) are counted as sheep to the slaughter all the day long.
For men loved darkness more than they loved the light.
It is my hearts prayer and desire, that as we who truely want to do the will of the Father, as we grow in the knowledge of Him, that we sincerly have the best interest in mind for all men whatever station the Father has them in, and also wherever they may find themselves in their walk on earth.
Weather their walk fits into your brand of God, is not the point.
Have compassion in those who need compassion, mourn for those who are caught up in any type of error, and rejoice with those who are rejoicing.
With all prayer and supplication lift up all men with thanksgiving and a true heart felt desire that all men come into the knowledge of Him.
