Compromised Christianity

I am a significant compromiser in several areas, so I do not speak from any spiritual perch. But I consider nationalism and patriotism to be draining the essence of following Jesus.
If we considered everyone our neighbor, and if we considered everyone higher than ourselves, we would view the Palestianians differently, the gays differently, the Muslims differently, the Democrats differently, and most importantly the scope of the ministry of Jesus differently.
