How many times has it been that you felt that you were all alone, or that your people; even your brothers, and sister in Church have turned their backs on you? How many times have you stretched out your hand to others and they have spread rumors about you, and made you feel like the least of God's creation. I want you to know that it isn’t anything that you have done wrong. It is the trick of the adversary plain and simple. As we all know Satan is not afraid of the church as so many of us are led to believe. Yet even now he commutes between the Earth (which Adam and Eve gave him control over when they ate the fruit of the tree the Knowledge of Good and Evil) and Heaven Job 1:6-11. If Satan is still commuting in this way into heaven, they you know that the anointed doors of the church aren’t stopping him and his Network of demons from coming in, and separating the flock.

1st scenario: A new member comes into the church, and group b extends their arm to the new member doing everything to make the new member comfortable. Everything is fine until the people from group a sees this, and they start to give the new member the cold shoulder; of course the new member doesn’t know about the strife between the two groups. This is going to lead to group be telling the new member about the tension between the two groups, and start airing the dirty laundry of group a. The new member is seasoned in the word, and knows that the word of God is good for reproof, and correction II Tim 3:16, and goes and approaches one of the members of group a. When the member of group a hears the accusations of group b, she claims that everything said by group b are lies, and then proceeds to air the dirty laundry of group b. Group a, and group b have titled themselves enemies. Group a and group b are cliques; There should be no cliques in the church of God.
2nd scenario: You love the Lord with all your heart, all your mind and all your being. You always go out of your way to help your brothers and sisters, not only in Church, but you extend your service to others when you leave Church also. So why is it that you can’t find acceptance in either place. I hope that you can find an answer and comfort in these words.
If you are in a situation like this Glorify the Lord; because many are called, but few are chosen Matt. 20:16, 22:14. There are m any reasons why a person can be ostracized by fellow Church members. You would think that after the world being against you all week long you should at least be able to let down your guard amongst your brethren at Church. Your Church brethren make you suffer more than the world does because you are supposed to be walking the same way. Don’t lose heart; the adversary is busier in Church than outside. One of the tools that he uses is jealousy. If people (the church included) hear he/she is so attractive or he/she sings so well, or any other good thing that is spoken about; some people will get tired of hearing it. Why? Because first of all it isn’t being said about them, and second of all they want to steal whatever it is that sets you apart from the rest of the congregation. They will even lie because jealousy had festered in their hearts, and made them bitter. Can a person like this go to heaven? Yes they can if they repent, but in the meantime what if the ostracized person leaves Church and throws up their hands and don’t want to serve God anymore? The Blood is on your head (this is to the Jealous). To the who have been hurt by these situations: Be encouraged,
I Peter 2:19-20: For this is thankworthy, if a man or conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. 20. For what glory is it if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? But if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take I patiently this is acceptable with God. In these times, I know that it is hard, but look to Jesus; the author and finisher of our faith, and he will see you through. He is more than friend enough to help you out of these situations. He is a friend like no other. He will listen without telling you about how much worse his situation was than yours is. He knows, because everything that you are going through; he has been through. Just hold your head up high, and don’t use the same tactics that they use against you. Remain humble, there are crowns in this; don’t live for these people to like you or accept you. The Lord has a special purpose in mind for you if you persevere.
