Yes. One should also look inward regarding their reaction to equity and true Christianity. If the instinct is to become angry and threatened, it exposes whether you are, indeed, a victim of oppression or its benefactor.

In the world without Christ there is no good news except the gospel. Oppressors come and go by the hand of man and by the time limit of life. Even the longest familial rulerships were usurped by time.

The Gospel is about living thru that and rising above it too after death.

True. Simply put, the gospel is bad news for the Trump administration. Which is why they're always attempting to twist it and remake the Christian faith in their own image.

I agree in terms of earthly power and status, but I want to believe in a Gospel that is good news for everyone in part because being an oppressor is bad for that person. But also I'm thinking eschatologically.
