Christian Nationalism is not Jesus’ Christianity - 4
Manage episode 338590480 series 2117892
Christian Nationalism is a conviction that America is inherently a nation built on Christian ethics and beliefs. This ideology is seen through combative methods of imposing selected “Christian ethics” onto the political stage by any means necessary.
Christian Nationalism seems to be talked about more and more. Many conservative evangelicals are now even describing themselves and their vision for America in this way.
“Is this how Jesus used power and influence?”
“Is this how Jesus expects His followers to engage in our world?”
“What is a healthy relationship of Christianity and politics, and what does this mean for Christ followers?”
John 18
36 Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.”
