The cross is not just a badge to identify us...it is also the compass which gives us our bearings in a disoriented world.
Although we have responsibilities to others, we are primarily accountable to God. It is before him that we stand, and to him that one day we must give an account. We should not therefore rate human opinion too highly.
Grace is God loving, God stooping, God coming to the rescue, God giving himself generously in and through Jesus Christ.
His authority on earth allows us to dare to go to all the nations. His authority in heaven gives us our only hope of success. And His presence with us leaves us with no other choice.
