Why non-Christians dislike Christianity

    I heard a preacher on the radio today talking about all of the different religions that are out there, and something he said caught my attention. He said that, out of all the religious beliefs in the world, the one that non-Christian people always seem to be nervous about is Christianity. I agree with him. Non-Christians are quick to promote tolerance, but yet they don't want us to say "Merry Christmas" because it may offend someone (which, by the way, makes no sense because by not saying "Merry Christmas", it offends Christians).
    Many of these people seem to always be looking for ways to take out Christianity, which brings up a very interesting point. I believe the reason why non-Christians dislike Christianity so much is because, deep down, they know that it's true.
    Revelation 3:20 says, "... I stand at the door and knock." You see, every time non-Christians hear about Christianity, Jesus begins knocking at their door. Think about it... if someone kept knocking at your door, even after you decided not to open it, wouldn't you begin to feel angry? I believe this is what is happening to non-Christians. They may be feeling angry, but what they don't know is that Jesus sees how terrible the future is for them, and He wants to save them from it. If my house was burning up and I didn't know it, wouldn't you keep trying to get my attention? Jesus is doing the same thing to non-Christians today.
    So, if we ever begin to worry about people trying to take away Christianity, just remember why they are doing it in the first place: Jesus is knocking at their door. Pray for them that somehow they will decide to open that door before it's too late.
