My Kingdom is no part of this world. If my Kingdom were part of this world, my attendants would have fought.—John 18:36.

 

In the past, “the king of the south” has made direct attacks on Jehovah’s people. (Dan. 11:40) During the first half of the 20th century, for example, many brothers were imprisoned because of their Christian neutrality and some Witness children were expelled from school for the same reason. In recent decades, though, Jehovah’s servants living in the realm of that king have faced more subtle tests of their loyalty to God’s Kingdom. For instance, during election campaigns, a Christian might feel tempted to support one political party or candidate over another. He may not go so far as to vote; but in his mind and heart, he takes sides. How important it is that we remain politically neutral not only in our actions but also in our thoughts and feelings!—John 15:18, 19. w23.08 12 ¶17

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
