Kinism: Prioritising the Gospel?
When discussing Kinism, the Christian doctrine of ethno-nationalism and ethno-segregation, critics often pose a question or assert, 'Even if Kinism is true, should we truly be this divisive? Shouldn't we prioritise the gospel first?'
This assertion suggests that advocating for segregation might dissuade individuals from embracing the gospel, given contemporary society's heightened sensitivity to anything perceived as 'racist'. However, this reasoning is flawed. It shouldn't matter if it appears divisive, as the gospel itself is inherently offensive and foolishness to those who aren't saved. As articulated in 1 Corinthians 1:18:
Note:
Despite the gospel's inherent offensiveness, it must be remembered that this is certainly not an excuse to not be respectful, articulate, and cordial when discussing. 1 Peter 3:15 states,

"but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,"
