July 18, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) – Catholic apologist Chris Stefanick released a short video yesterday dispelling common confusion about what “everyone is welcome” means in the context of Christianity.

A castle was behind Stefanick in the video, so he decided to “reflect on the reality of kingdoms.”

“Kingdoms have boundaries, rules, regulations, and kings. Jesus called himself king,” said Stefanick. “Something really striking about His ministry – He made it clear that He established a new kingdom. Now, unlike any other kingdom, everyone’s invited to be part of the kingdom, which is amazing.”

“But that also means everyone is invited to accept His reign in their lives,” he continued. “I think sometimes we get confused when we talk about the 'welcome' the Church offers the world. We talk about inclusivity and we forget the fact that yes, everyone is welcome to receive Jesus as King.”

“When you’re part of the Kingdom, that means bowing to His authority and living a certain way,” Stefanick explained. “We don’t get to say we’re part of the kingdom but we don’t accept His reign in our lives, we don’t obey His word. That’s just not how it works.”
