Speak the truth
In this historical hour, we German Social Democrats pledge ourselves to the principles of humanity and justice, of freedom and socialism. No Enabling Act gives you the power to eradicate ideas, which are eternal and indestructible. - Otto Wels
God the creator, and Truth, are also eternal and indestructible. There will be a day when this country has become much closer to, or even past, that of Nazi Germany. I intend to go down in the history books as a man like Otto, who stood up to the bully of Nazism (or liberalism, or inclusiveness, etc). If I'm the only man and they ostracize me for speaking the truth, then so be it.

I almost want to quit reading and watching the news I get so angry and frustrated and sad at people that can't see right from wrong, can't hear truth from lies. We have to be in prayer daily that God will give them eyes to see and ears to hear.
Somehow, we have to stop tearing ourselves apart as the Body of Christ. Somehow, we have to stand up, and hold hands, and refuse to budge on the Truth. Somehow, we have to be in fellowship, loving one another, and being in agreement on the Truth, speak the Truth; even if we die because of it.
Matthew 13:57
"And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house."
Yes, the gospel is offensive to some people. The prideful fool finds offense because he cannot humble himself.
Matthew 11:6
And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
My prayer daily is that the Holy Spirit humbles me to not be too prideful to accept the good news of salvation.
And then, that humbleness, with that Holy Spirit can reveal to us the Truth. Please speak the Truth that the Holy Spirit gives to you.
Speak it in church,
Speak it in your homes,
Speak it in your workplaces,
Speak it in public,
Speak it in jail when you get put there...
