Must hide 3

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

Some call him "Robbie" George. His advice to his twitter followers who know they will be "cancelled" if they advocate for their convictions (yesterday's post) . . will not be followed by all or even most of them. They will pay a price for it if they do open up, and they have much to lose.

Cancel culture bullies intimidate and injure rather than civilly engage with people of a different opinion. But George tells us to stand up to it anyway.

We've all heard the threat, "you're on the wrong side of history, history will judge you," but George says that's an empty threat. Speaking as a Christian, he says History will not judge you but God will.

"[God] will want to know from each of us whether we sought the truth with a pure and sincere heart, whether we sought to live by the truth authentically and with integrity, and whether we stood up for the truth, speaking it out loud and in public, bearing the costs  . . ."
