True Christians must maintain loyalties to Jesus and His kingdom no matter what it costs. We cannot excessively intertwine our civic responsibilities with the mission of the gospel, and at the same time, we must reject the influence of a cultural peer pressure that seeks to move us to what they believe to be the “right side of history.” Our message must be clear and concise and centered succinctly on the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. This gospel alone is the source and strength of our hope.
