We are now seeing an inversion of priorities: indeed, there are those would like to make us believe that first we need to resolve the social problems (immigration, poverty, social justice, pollution etc.) and then announce Jesus Christ. But as we have seen, it is the exact opposite.

Another quote with a lot of truth in it:
A Church that loses the awareness of the mandate entrusted by its Founder risks becoming irrelevant, futile and extinct. It reminds us of the insipid salt of the Gospel and it would end up being one of the many philosophies, visions and ideologies.

Ok.... but it has to be a balance ebb..... balance....
We gotta remember that good book.......
God will judge everyone according to his deeds (2:6).
Those who do good will attain eternal life (2:7).
Those who do evil will incur wrath (2:8).
Those who do evil will suffer tribulation (2:9).
Those who do good will receive glory (2:10).
