This country was founded based on Judeo-Christian principles and explicit acknowledgement og God’s providence and His blessing that it occur.

The *only* reason our nation has been as successful as long as it has is because of Him and that we, as a people, acknowledge this.

And we are about to lose it all.

Sorry fb, I disagree with you here.

It is both Christian and Nationalist and (or should be) Christian Nationalist, in terms of public morality and what is allowed on the airwaves and in our institutions.

With special reverence for and brotherhood to the Apple of God’s Eye.

I agree with most of what you say. Our nation was certainly founded by Christians. No other people would have been selfless enough to give us this gift at great personal cost.

And they believed if we kept our goodness, we could keep the gift.

But “Christian Nationalist” has the wrong ring to me. It sounds like the Inquisition, not the American people.

I want people to follow our Messiah as much as you do, but in order for us to get that, we have to ALLOW it, a completely free conversion, with no coercion. Otherwise it’s not a completely free choice.

We all know people who were “brought up Christian” who are no more Christian than the man in the moon. That’s because they never really had to make the choice for themselves. The people in my life who are the most Christian in their thinking are converts to Christ, born-again Christians, and Baptists who have to make a decision when they are old enough. I guess I should add “anyone who makes a conscious decision to be Christian.”

It’s not a denomination, or a place to go on Sunday. It’s a total dedication of heart, soul, mind, and strength. And if I’m not mistaken, Jesus added the word “mind” to that original threesome from before the modern age.

Once you make up your mind, it’s done.
