An attractive message - many people want to hear it. An off-putting message - many do not like the new, different aspect of it. A polarizing message - some receive and many reject. A growing message - through positive testimony and negative persecution. A saving message - as opposed to going before God unjustified. A transforming message - forgiveness and life out of sin and death. A condemning message - shaking the dust off.
