A Hill to Die On

Home > Pastor's Blog > A Hill to Die On

On Wednesday Night, December 16th, at 6:30pm, we will follow-up on an earlier study from November 11th: “Is Socialism compatible with Christianity?”  I concluded that Socialism is NOT compatible with Christianity and since it looks like Joe Biden and his Socialist agenda are here to stay that Christians should do what Christians have historically done, which is:

      1) Pray for our governmental leaders (1Timothy 2:1-4) and

      2) Try to Comply with the government unless they demand us to do something that violates our Christian principles (Act 5:29).

I received a message from a viewer in California who asked the following question: “How does one comply with the UN Agenda 21 & UN Agenda 2030 & the far left’s [socialist] plans for our nation?”

To use an idiom, I believe she was asking me “what will be our ‘Hill to Die On?'” What issue will be so important that we must NOT comply with our government regardless of the consequences? At what point must Christians say “Enough is enough – I’m not going to obey that law or rule or regulation” and resort to passive resistance or even active resistance?

Most Americans have a “normalcy bias”; that is, we cannot believe that America could slip away from our “normal” liberties and become a socialist nation  where the government controls most aspects of our lives, even to the point of persecution if we fail to comply.  

What do you think? Has America reached the “tipping point” where American Christians should need to consider choosing “a hill to die on”?

Has America reached this "Tipping Point"?
