I’m a Baptist pastor. White Christian nationalism is the opposite of Jesus’ teaching
Kansas City Star ^ | MARCH 06, 2024 | STEPHEN D. JONES

Posted on 03/06/2024 2:57:43 PM PST by artichokegrower

I am writing as a Christian pastor — a Baptist, no less — serving churches for the past 52 years. Of course, I favor Christianity. And in my ministry, I invite persons to consider faith in Jesus Christ. Therefore, it may seem surprising that I am a leader of an effort in Kansas City during this election year to resist White Christian nationalism. White Christian nationalism does not invite people into faith, but rather seeks to dominate, control and coerce not only individuals, but society.

Maybe he should concern himself with the perversion of the churches he claims to be a part of

The term “white Christian nationalist” is the same blah, blah as calling someone a racist, homophobic, islamophobic, and all the other schoolboy taunts that only work on weak minded people.

moron tare.

listen preach,,,

the gospel is not communism

Christianity isnt communism

Christ has us help others out of the agape love of Christ voluntarily given

communism forces help at the point of a gun barrel.

moron

God confused man at the tower of babel

and divided man into seperate nations

nationalism was created and introduced by God

God raises up and brings down nations

God blessed all the nations through abram.

God made abram the father of nations

According to the biblical account, Abram (“The Father [or God] Is Exalted”), who is later named Abraham (“The Father of Many Nations”)

you sir , are a wolve that has enteted the church and are spreading doctrines of demons to tickle the ears of the ungodly and ignorant.

spit.

you use God for profit.

you will end up like the sons of sceva

repent of your evil ways and be saved

its almost too late

How is white Christian nationalism defined by the pastor?? or anyone else??

The way the pastor thinks it is no different than calling them the KKK. I don’t agree. I believe anyone using the term, “white Christian nationalist” is in fact a raciest.

For me a “white Christian nationalist” is merely a patriot who happens to be white.

“White Christian Nationalism is a liberal construct.”

You are right. I do not believe there is any such thing as White Christian Nationalism as defined by the Marxists.

Who preaches white Christian nationalism? Maybe there’s a few people here and there but I don’t hear about it.

Yep, heretical commies. Churches like this only preach their distorted version of “love” and fail to acknowledge God’s justice and wrath. This church is a social justice church that has no understanding of God’s justice and true holiness.

Pastor is a loon. Trying to defend a made up term by the lying media.Out of touch with the world. Even Jesus told his disciples to sell their garments if they had to, and buy a sword. Not a knife...a sword. Guy “favors” Christ...compared to who?...Jesus never said, “I think I am the way...but, well, you may think otherwise, whatever you do, don’t be someone who defends their nation.” Time to go home Mr pastor. You and Biden will have a great time.

Yes but unfortunately some have put that coat on and are wearing it. The terms need to be defined. I’m Christian, I am a nationalist, I believe in innate rights from God, so what does that make me? American 50 years ago.

Any government that uses a religious belief or doctrine to control the populace is the enemy of freedom, even if that religious doctrine is something you believe or a part of.

Christian shura? Wow! Such a misnomer !
If Christians supposedly want to dictate laws to the people, can you tell me which denomination will set the doctrine? This destroys any idea from the Left about religious nation
We lost this country when the Ten Commandments were removed from the town square. We have no guidepost for society. Now everything goes! Enjoy the chaos and destruction coming

The church is a member of the American Baptist Church, sometimes called the Northern Baptists. It is a liberal, mainline denomination, considered one of the Seven Sisters of mainline Protestantism. Their denominational website has little of doctrinal information, but covers such issues as anti-racism and creation justice. This pastor wraps himself in the Christian and Baptist labels, but he is a cultural Marxist, as are other liberal ministers.
