Patriotic Christian Hangout

[Ziggy]

As a student of history, I generally prefer to start at the beginning. What does the LORD think of Christian nationalism?
Genesis 12:1 Now the LORD said[a] to Abram, “Go from your country[b] and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation.

God is not a Globalist but a nationalist.

A. He recognizes the Pagan country that Abram and his family live in.​

B. He commands colonialism, going to another land. The purpose for which is:​

C. To make a new nation, a nation that will become great due to the people God has chosen, i.e., not multiculturalism, not the perversion that everyone is equal in God's eyes.​

What do you make of these verses @Ziggy in the context of Patriotism?

Listen, You already know who that trigger is for my friend,
and it definitely is not you.
God Bless You

Yup. I already posted that same post in that other thread.

She said there is a galore of verses for a certain topic. Given the Bible is made up of 66 books, I suspect there are a galore of verses for a lot of topic, including nationalism. It will give me great pride to compile them for everyone's edification. It's the LORD's work we do.

Only a few verses later we come across this. Genesis 12:10
Abram and Sarai in Egypt
10 Now there was a famine in the land. So Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.

A nation that has endured from BEFORE Abram to the modern era. Abram left the land of Haran and arrived where the LORD told him. However, it was inhospitable. Did God tell him to deal with it? Did God condemn him for seeking refuge from the famine? No.

The political leader of Egypt, the Pharaoh, met the Patriarch of our faith. Abram left in peace. In Chapter 13:3 the LORD recognizes 3 countries, the Negeb, Bethel and Ai. What a nationalist our God is, eh? He doesn't condemn his chosen people's colonialism but guides it. Who knew?!

Jesus said:
Luk 10:19
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

He never said, that he would give them power to tread on us.

Deu 8:20
As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God.

Let's not fail Him again.

@Wrangler

My husband also says that everyone is not equal in God’s eyes through his study of the Bible and life experience. He also says false equality has caused a lot of issues. I agree with him. I wonder if you could expound a little?

Tolerance

What say you?

It isn't tolerance to endure behaviors or ideologies that violate basic moral principles.
That's immoral concession.
