Sadly, people go about yelling 116 and all I see is the same people so ashamed or insecure of the Gospel.
To “not be ashamed” is an obvious hint that there is a form of shame actively projected your way for standing with the Gospel.
It’s a “shame” you must embrace till you become absolutely shameless in it
1. Because you are aware of what it means to you and
2. Because you have decided to wear what is deemed to be shameful as a badge of Honour — the emblem of your pride

“That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.”

As far as the world is concerned, you cannot truly be considered a pragmatic person if you believe in Jesus, the Gospel or the kingdom.
You cannot truly be the “cool kid” or the “in crowd” or a “realist.”
You weren’t called to be appealing — you were called to be necessary.

In a world overrun by all manner of pride demographics, YOU THE BELIEVER, should be the most loud and proud - like a group of lions.
Unless you aren’t truly convinced of the power of the Gospel to save. And if this is the problem, take the time to get your conviction.
