Appeasing evil is cowardice.

A lot of people consider the Gospel communicated in John 3:16, but how few recall the verses following 3:16, which describe why unbelievers are already condemned. To wit:

John 3:17-21
(17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
(18) He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
(19) And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
(20) For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
(21) But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Now apply this to those who oppose Christianity in politics, yet will condone every type of crazy evil, including transgender operations and teaching school children about homosexuality. They condone such things because they do not want their deeds to be manifest lest they be reproved and convicted of their evil deeds.

We don’t need to know what they all are, but we easily discern good from evil and their behavior as enemies of Christ manifests their evil hearts, even when their outward appearance is presented in a haughty fashion.

How true, they hide from the Light to continue in their sin/evil.
