There are more and more Christians in the US now being forced out of a job because of their convictions ...(e.g. Brendan Eich (Former Chief of Mozilla Firefox), Kelvin Cochran (former Atlanta Fire Chief) & The Benham brothers (HGTV, Flip it Forward) and many other similar examples ... but we are not called to retaliate in kind. We do not use illiberal tactics to further the Kingdom of God, but proclaim the truth in good conscience and continue to do good to those who wish to harm us. Many in the world have a dualistic, Manichean worldview, in which those who share their views represent the forces of goodness and light while those who don't share their views represent the forces of evil and darkness. But we do not wage war as the world does. (2 Cor. 10:3-5; Rom. 12:14, Matt 5:44). Our war is not against flesh and blood but against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places which blind them and take them captive (Eph 6:12; 2 Tim 2:26). We can have empathy for those in the world who are against us because we are like them and we were one of them, but for the grace of God. And we now know that the gospel message of Jesus Christ (which we have been entrusted) is their only hope to be rescued out of it. We do this, not by browbeating but we persuade men (2 Cor. 5:11)
