TGC Board Member Says Jesus Gave Up Rights, So We Should Give Up Second Amendment

Ryan Kwon, a board member of The Gospel Coalition and pastor of Resonate Movement Church, is yet another voice in the long parade of woke ideologues masquerading as shepherds who distort the Scriptures to advance their communism-lite agenda—always under the thin guise of “third-way-ism.”
In his sermon this past weekend, Kwon attempts to link Jesus’ sacrificial death with the need for Christians to surrender their rights. He, of course, misrepresents the gospel. But who’s surprised by that?
Apparently, according to Kwon, laying down your Second Amendment rights or your wealth—interestingly, things he compares to abortion in the same breath—is the moral imperative of our day, because why would you want to defend your family or steward your God-given resources wisely?
How utterly backward. Christ’s death was about restoring our relationship with God, not a political ploy to push disarmament or economic egalitarianism.
But this isn’t surprising coming from someone like Kwon, who believes that Christianity’s true calling is to pave the way for some undefined, feel-good utopia. He preaches about forsaking “my cause, my wealth, my rights,” as if these things are merely selfish indulgences, ignoring that defending justice, protecting life, and stewarding wealth are actually biblical principles.
Kwon would have us believe that to follow Christ is to join a grand, virtue-signaling crusade against common sense. It’s not a bold stand for justice—it’s capitulation wrapped in spiritual platitudes.
And of course, in true third-way fashion, Kwon dismisses the idea that politics or nationalism can provide any hope for society. In his world, the church should be preaching a nebulous “different kind of wisdom,” which conveniently aligns with progressive talking points.
It’s not about engaging in the real, gritty work of promoting biblical values in a broken world—it’s about floating above it all, avoiding hard truths while offering nothing but empty grandiloquence.
