Without bravery ‘Christianity will perish’

Hope Bonarcher considers what might be behind Elon Musk’s recent statement on faith and urges us to speak up for truth

This summer, one of the world’s most industrious and controversial men, Elon Musk, posted this on his platform X: “Unless there is more bravery to stand up for what is fair and right, Christianity will perish.” These pointed words have a long legacy of truth in them. The Christian faith is built on a foundation of bravery, which started with the chief Cornerstone, Jesus; living, breathing, supernatural superhero, who literally saved the world from evil. Jesus Christ of Nazareth, fully man, fully God, completely sinless, became sin and took onto himself the Father’s punishment for a humanity of sinners.
