“Hated by others and hating one another.” This sounds like the media today decrying the state of our country. Maybe we have strayed so far that this is true. But, it is not true for me, because I was saved by mercy and live in hope.

Titus 3:3-7 - 

For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
