Bonhoeffer warned that “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.,” and history confirms it, times of weakness invite chaos. The justice system may waver, but God does not. Courage means standing, resisting, and refusing to yield the ground of truth to those who live by destruction.
