Many faithful pastors have known intense hatred from some people in the church where they have pastored, who feel threatened by an uncompromising witness. In the book The Pastor In Profile, Adolph Bedsole wrote about troublemakers in the church who "torment the pastor into becoming the crabbed old goat they think him to be. Jezebel and Judas can take a good man of God and carve him into a critical creature. Constant criticism and continual gripes can make a man punch- drunk and cruel. Some churches seem to have a special ability to break preachers down." Bledsoe advised," If you find yourself a victim of these circumstances, roll up your sleeves, get on your knees, and learn how to live with them and outthink,outpray, outlive, and outwork them." -David McCarthy-
