He that is not against us is with us (hos ouk estin kath' hēmōn huper hēmōn estin). This profound saying throws a flood of light in every direction. The complement of this logion is that in Mat 12:30 : “He that is not with me is against me.” Both are needed. Some people imagine that they are really for Christ who refuse to take a stand in the open with him and for him.
