If you say, “You aren’t a Christian if ___________,” and if you put anything in that blank except some manner of “you don’t trust in Jesus, the Son of God who died for your sins and rose from the dead,” then your theology is at least suspect. 1/3

Moreover, if your blank is filled with political declarations, then your loyalty might be to the wrong kingdom. 2/3

And if you have done this after rebuking people for speaking out against racism, abuse, or other forms of injustice by asserting that “we just need to preach the Gospel,” then you might just be a hypocrite. 3/3
