Why are you whining?

What did Jesus tell you was going to happen to you if you followed Him?

If you are not expecting to be crucified upside down in Rome, I'm not sure you are really tuned in to the message.

Well said. Although, I guess there's a fundamental difference between me and most Christians.

Most Christians are saying, "I will gladly be crucified upside down for Him."

I'm saying something else: "If the penalty for following Him is upside down crucifixion, so be it. But you will know that you have been in a fight before we get to that part. And that's assuming you win, which is not assured."
