Did Jesus say this?
Does anyone know where I might find this verse if he did?

"Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man."

In the KJV, there are the following verses, which are pretty close to what you're looking for:

Matthew 5:11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Luke 6:22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

Thank you katzpur.

Linwood.

Glad I could help. By the way, http://www.hti.umich.edu/k/kjv/ is the best online version of the KJV I have ever found. I don't know if you prefer a different translation, but this site is SO simple to use and easy on the eyes. I'd highly recommend it.

Hi linwood, when I get stuck with a particular Scripture or verse, I type in blue letter bible. its excellent and gives every verse where every word or phrase is used.. :)

What are you up to? ;)
:D

Nothing really.
I just found the verse on another board in the middle of a gay marriage debate and hadn`t heard it before.

I couldn`t find it right away at blueletter and wasn`t sure if it would have been worded exactly the way it was posted.

Thanks everyone!!
