#DToddChristofferson said in his #GeneralConference talk that staying on the covenant path will help us “bypass the people & things that, even if popular, would jeopardize our physical & spiritual well-being.” Seeking refuge in what’s popular is human nature. And it’s dangerous.
Worldly power builds around the rickety scaffolding of popularity. The more people shunted into a tribe (however they arrived) the greater that faction’s societal influence. So power-mongers create a climate of fear outside the tribe & promises of safety under their own banner.
He whose power banner looms the largest collects the most followers. The more populous the tribe, the larger it will grow; isolation from the pack makes one vulnerable. We surrender principle for the illusion of safety. It’s natural. Hence “the natural man” is God’s enemy—& ours.
