Correct Answer: serve


Solution : The right option is the first option .

The word serve here means to be in the service of or to fulfil a role or purpose.

In this context, the speaker is stating that there are certain things they won't assist or support. The sentence suggests a refusal to be involved in a particular capacity or to help in certain situations.

Hence, the complete sentence would be: "I will not serve that in which I no longer believe."
