The True Church was persecuted

I have heard many comments from many people saying that our Church is weird, or is a cult. They say this because it is different from the norm--it goes against what has been commonly accepted as truth.

When we look at Jesus Christ and our forefathers of faith in the apostolic age, they went through the same persecutions and false accusations.

To Jesus they said:

"We are not stoning you for any of these," replied the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you a mere man, claim to be God." (John 10:33)

They called Jesus blasphemous.

About apostle Paul they said:

"We have found this man to be a troublemaker, stirring up riots among the Jews all over the world. He is a ringleader of the Nazarene sect, and even tried to desecrate the temple; so we seized him..." (Acts 24:5)

They falsely accused apostle Paul and had him thrown in prison.

Both Jesus Christ and Apostle Paul spoke the Truth (Sabbath, Passover, Feasts of God, veil for women, etc.), but they were hated for it; they were mocked, scorned, and persecuted.

What about Second Coming Christ and his followers?
