What is the point of such activism? Anyone who cares deeply about children, family, faith, and freedom will know the point. What was the point of the abolition (of the Transatlantic slave trade) movement? Imagine how much worse the abortion industry would be without the tireless actions of Christians engaging in an important issue. Some things are worth standing up for. Some things are worth fighting for. Some things are worth dying for! The Gospel is our message, but it only needs to be proclaimed, the Gospel can defend itself. But, in addition to the saving power of hope, people in the world need advocates and comfort. Evil must be met with the light of Christian witness. If you don't feel a strong pull to care for the cause of unborn children or grown men and women under persecution or to speak out against things like this, then perhaps you should ask yourself some hard questions. That is what love of neighbor means. Of course, we pray for and share the gospel with others. But being salt and light and standing against the tsunami of evil and unrighteousness in our culture is also a part of the Christian's responsibility to faithfully serve their Lord in a fallen world.
