Moralism is Not the Gospel
Dr. Mohler: “In our own context, one of the most seductive false gospels is moralism. This false gospel can take many forms and can emerge from any number of political and cultural impulses.

(For those outside the U.S., the Democrats are the party generally for higher taxes, albeit with their reasons for such)
