Abomination by Affiliation

"The Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.... every shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians" (Genesis 43:32, 46:34). "Let us go forth therefore unto Him without the camp, bearing His reproach" (Hebrews 13:13).

This age of unbelief will hate
The message of salvation,
And count those who affiliate
With Christ, abomination.

Let us then bear His reproach
(It is so small a price!),
As we see that day approach
When we shall dwell with Christ.
