I'm a Christian first, and a mean-spirited, bigoted conservative second, and don't you ever forget it. You know who else was kind of "divisive" in terms of challenging the status quo and the powers-that-be of his day? Jesus Christ.

About This Quote

This quote is an example of what I call the "Christian Truth" - the idea that Christians (and others) must rebuke in order to be effective. Jesus said in Matthew 23:23, "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven in people's hearts and hinders them from entering in." Jesus was challenging people in high places who were trying to keep people out. "Christian" is shorthand for the Gospel message which claims to teach that God loves everyone, that there is no judgment, that all people who believe will be saved. Thus, Christianity is about accepting God's love for all people and rejecting all human institutions which teach otherwise.
