Jesus said, “Anyone who loves his father and mother more than me is not worthy of me.” I conclude from this: Anyone who loves their fatherland above all else will probably not accept Jesus. Certain state powers incite hatred against minorities and violate human rights. Kings use this ploy to try to restore pride and honor to their nation. This trend can now be seen in many countries that are increasingly becoming chauvinistic nations. Let's put it another way: fascism is back! Populism has to do with hatred, and that is the opposite of Christian charity. The commitment to love one's neighbor leads to division (Matthew 10).

When the New Testament comes into force, every injury to a person, whether physical or emotional, is also an attack on Jesus. When wealth is achieved through exploitation, you can call it mammon. And people worship this mammon like a god. Watch out! All gods will perish who did not create the heavens and the earth (Jeremiah 10).
