Devin - Matthew 13

And they took offense at Him [they were repelled and hindered from acknowledging His authority, and caused to stumble]. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house. (Matthew 13:57 AMP)

Jesus had a reputation within his community and he knew not everyone would like him.  We are to be peacemakers whenever we can, however peoples disapproval should never keep us from pleasing god.  Let's not chase after the approval of others instead let's surrender our hearts to God wholly.
