If you believe in God by faith, without wrestling with the hard parts of the Bible—then you support wicked political leaders with a similar faith, without admitting the flagrant wrong they do—your religion will look empty and superstitious, like the foundation of a blind and naive life.

And those neighbors, grandchildren, and friends you love who do not believe in your God will have no desire to know him. 

They will choose hell over a faith that lies. Yes
