“There comes a time when silence is betrayal.” … Martin Luther King, Jr.
Loyalty to family, loyalty to friends, loyalty to God and loyalty to truth and justice will not prevail in silence. There is a time to be still, and a time to be silent, but there are times when silence is betrayal. We must defend, we must support, and we must speak out for all that is good and right. When our family is persecuted or attacked we must rally together as one and never be silent in our love or our support. Does not family deserve our alliance and our advocacy? When friends are wrongfully betrayed, we must never be the betrayer and we must never stand on the side of the betrayer. When our God is attacked and maligned is not silence betrayal?
The truth of the Bible and the truth about the Lord God and the Lord Jesus are truths hated, and truth denied by many, but those who believe must stand firm and must not be silent. We see the God ordained union of marriage attacked, we see the God ordained institution of family attacked, and we see the sanctity and value of human life attacked with viciousness and continuity. There are times when silence is acceptance and there are times when silence is betrayal. I do not force my beliefs upon others but I also do not stand silent when my beliefs are attacked and maligned. Let loyalty be seen, and let love and loyalty never be silent.
