Quotes by Keith Giles (?)

“So, while we cheer for Katniss in The Hunger Games as she defies her oppressive government, we would never tolerate anyone who refused to place their hand over their heart and pledge allegiance to our flag at a football game.”
― Keith Giles, Jesus Untangled: Crucifying Our Politics to Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb

“Our hope is not in our nation. We place no faith in politics or policies. Our eyes are set on Jesus. We are looking for a better country. Our goal is to follow our King as obedient ambassadors of Christ. So, if you want to live an untangled life, here’s what I recommend: Don’t allow yourself to become deceived again about the need to vote for the right candidate. Remember, Christians have more than enough power at their disposal to change their nation, and it’s much more effective than casting a vote once every four years. Or, to put it another way, presidents and politicians have much less power than the average Christian when it comes to transformation.”
― Keith Giles, Jesus Untangled: Crucifying Our Politics to Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb

“They see the culture moving away from God; and, instead of calling the Bride of Christ to take up the cross and lay down their lives for the lost, they reach for the sword and align themselves with the Empire as a way to gain favor and exert political influence over others. It’s a mistake, and it’s in direct contradiction to what Jesus told us to do.”
