Ah, but when Christians want to save homosexuals from themselves it’s intolerance and homophobia.

Weird

Nobody calls themself a “Christian Nationalist”. Just more made-up phrases the Left uses to demonize those they view as their political and religious enemies.

"If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first. The world would love you as one of its own if you belonged to it, but you are no longer part of the world. I chose you to come out of the world, so it hates you. Do you remember what I told you? ‘A slave is not greater than the master.’ Since they persecuted me, naturally they will persecute you. And if they had listened to me, they would listen to you. They will do all this to you because of me, for they have rejected the one who sent me. They would not be guilty if I had not come and spoken to them. But now they have no excuse for their sin. Anyone who hates me also hates my Father."

Actually, I would like to visit such a church, sounds great! One problem, they never say exactly which denomination it is. The best I can figure, it is anything to do with the Holy Spirit or traditional Catholic and throw in some Southern Baptist for racist flavor. Is that about right?

>> Nobody calls themself a “Christian Nationalist”

I self identify as a Christian conservative patriot — in that order. But I refuse to shrink in shame when called a Christian Nationalist.

I say “Christian Nationalist, eh? Ok. So what are you? A Pagan Tribalist? An Atheist Globalist?”

I REFUSE to be quietly Alinsky’d — to allow the left to “pick an issue, name it, frame, it polarize it...”

The Left calls Nazis “Nationalists” instead of “Socialists” because they themselves are socialists. “Nationalist” makes it sound like anyone who is patriotic is a Nazi. The term “Christian Nationalist” in Left-speak means “Christian Nazi”, when the concept itself is ridiculous. The Nazis were never Christians. They hated Catholics and all Christians in general, almost as much as they hated Jews.

It really isn't about nationalism. That's just a political swear word like "fascist" these days.

Christian nationalism == Christians who are opposed to child castration and self-extermination in general.

From the Oxford definition, someone who supports the interests of another nation over theirs.

a person who strongly identifies with their own nation and vigorously supports its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations.

>> Actually, I would like to visit such a church, sounds great!

The closest church to Christian Nationalist (properly defined) that I have ever visited was Calvary Chapel in San Jose, CA. This is the congregation that fought — and won — battles against local government over “assembling themselves together” during COVID.

On the day Mrs. Tick and I visited, the guest pastor was historian Bill Federer. He gave an amazing sermon on why America and its form of government is different than any other government in world history, and how that fact is deeply tied to our Judeo-Christian heritage. Basically, it was a sermon out of this book “Who is the King in America? And Who are the Counselors to the King?: An Overview of 6,000 Years of History & Why America is Unique”.
https://www.amazon.com/Who-King-America-are-Counselors/dp/0989649121/ref=sr_1_3

Now, lest you think that Calvary Chapel is some kind of “Storm Front” outpost — Calvary Chapel San Jose is an offshoot of the Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa root. Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa was Chuck Smith’s church chronicled in Greg Laurie’s book “Jesus Revolution” (and of course the recent movie of the same name).

The parking lot was packed. The church was full. (Remember, this is San Jose, California — the belly of the beast!) The folks in the pew behind us recognized that we were visitors, introduced themselves, treated us with warmth and love and asked if they could pray with us and over us after the service. It’s the “real Christian deal”. If I lived within driving distance I would make them my church home in a heartbeat.

FRegards and Blessings!

The Christian adjective modifies your “Oxford” definition of nationalist.

Christ transforms all that He touches!

The response should be “We don’t need saving from ourselves- We need saving from people like you (those liberals trying to “save us) who are see persecuting us for our beleifs, trying to take our kids from us, trying to tell us how to raise our kids when you can’t take them, etc etc etc”

Leftist 20 years ago- “ I won’t lie to children. There is no such thing as Santa Clause.”

Leftist today- “ Some women have a penis.”

The label “Christian nationalism” is the new Progressive dog-whistle for “scary American patriots.” It signals to Progressives that Americans who love God and country – which used to be the norm before our descent into a post-Christian, post-patriotism culture – are a subversive danger to democracy. Christianity, after all, imposes a moral code that chafes Progressive libertines, and nationalism, with its emphasis on state sovereignty and secure borders, frustrates their globalist ambitions.

Which as have been said and can be shown, would include Founding Fathers. But a certain class of "conservatives" even here oppose making Christian morality an issue, under the premise that such is not a winning political position.
