I am emphatically *not* asserting this with a certainty. What I am trying to point out is the very possible overlap between a Biblical cosmology and some of the things you’re seeing on your timeline. Look at that picture of a “chandelier UFO” and then read these 3 verses from Ezekiel describing cherubim. “Now as I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, one for each of the four of them. As for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: their appearance was like the gleaming of beryl. And the four had the same likeness, their appearance and construction being as it were a wheel within a wheel. When they went, they went in any of their four directions without turning as they went.” — Ezekiel 1:15-17 Do we know what that purports to be? Of course not. Is it possible people have seen things the Bible refers to as cherubim, seraphim, principalities, and “powers of the air”? Yes.

@daneortlund So, what we have here is damage control from a narcissist “pastor”. What a smug fool. So “gentle and lowly”.

How The SBC Got Played An unlicensed investigation, a lawyer editing a report about her own client, and $13 million in tithes later, the largest conservative Protestant denomination in America learned what happens when men fear the mob more than they fear God. Special thanks to @megbasham and @RodDMartin for their contribution to this project.🫡

@pastoremase Wow. This guy is a pastor? He obviously has no clue what Christian nationalism is. Every one of his points is easily refuted

The problems with Christian nationalism & why It’s one of the most dangerous false teachings of our day? 1. It Confuses the Kingdom of God with Earthly Nations The Bible consistently teaches that God’s kingdom is not tied to any earthly nation-state. • John 18:36 – Jesus says, “My kingdom is not of this world.” • Philippians 3:20 – “Our citizenship is in heaven.” The people of God are not defined by national borders but by faith in Christ. The church is a transnational community. This becomes clear after Pentecost, where people from many nations become one people of God. 2. It Reverses the New Testament Mission The New Testament mission is making disciples of all nations, not making one nation Christian. • Matthew 28:19 – “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” The church spreads through evangelism and discipleship, not through state power. 3. It Confuses the Church with the State Scripture keeps a clear distinction between the mission of the church and the role of government. • Romans 13:1–7 – Government exists to restrain evil and maintain order. • Acts 5:29 – “We must obey God rather than men.” Government has a limited, temporal role, while the church carries the spiritual mission of redemption. 4. It Tempts Christians Toward Idolatry of Nation Scripture repeatedly warns against idolatry, including trusting political powers instead of God. • Psalm 146:3 – “Do not put your trust in princes.” • Isaiah 31:1 – Warning against trusting political alliances instead of God. When national identity becomes sacred, it can become an idol. 5. It Undermines the Multiethnic Nature of the Church The gospel creates a multiethnic people of God, not a single cultural or national expression. • Revelation 7:9 – A multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language. • Ephesians 2:14–16 – Christ breaks down dividing walls between peoples. Christian nationalism often elevates one culture or ethnicity as the “true Christian culture.” 6. It Risks Forcing External Christianity Without Heart Conversion Biblically, true faith must be voluntary and internal. • Jeremiah 31:33 – God writes the law on hearts. • John 3:3 – People must be born again. State-enforced Christianity can create cultural Christianity without genuine faith. 7. Presents a false form of the Christian faith to the world * 2 Corinthians 6:3 It creates obstacle to the gospel for non-Christian’s * Matthew 23:23 seeks to rewrite history to subvert biblical justice Christian nationalism bears false witness and creates cognitive dissonance to blind people to the comprehensive scope of the gospel. They affirm the content of the gospel, but deny its scope thereby preaching another gospel To all the non-Christians, who will look at this post this is not THE WAY or what is commonly called Christianity? It is something else. “I mean strictly to apply to the slaveholding religion of this land, and with no possible reference to Christianity proper; for, between the Christianity of this land, and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference—so wide, that to receive the one as good, pure, and holy, is of necessity to reject the other as bad, corrupt, and wicked. To be the friend of the one, is of necessity to be the enemy of the other. I love the pure, peaceable, and impartial Christianity of Christ: I therefore hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial and hypocritical Christianity of this land — Frederick Douglas “Woe to those who enact evil statutes And to those who constantly record mischief, So as to turn the poor away from their cause And rob the afflicted of My people of their justice, Isa 10:1-2 ““Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the Law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; Matt 23:23-24 —Yehoshua #christian #justice #God #Jesus #christiannationalism
