Why do men hate Christ according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Men hate Christ out of envy and a desire for power over their own lives.

Scripture indicates that the hatred towards Christ stems from envy, as highlighted in Acts 7:9-10, where Joseph's brothers sold him out of jealousy for their father's favoritism. This same sentiment resonates in the rejection of Christ, where the religious leaders feared losing their power and influence. Unbelievers desire autonomy and resist the notion of a sovereign Savior, making them hostile toward His authority and grace, thus explaining the deep-seated hatred they have for the true Christ.
