@NickQuient Peak white progressive right there. 😵‍💫

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@NickQuient That's a silly young man. So sure of his pronouncements with nothing to back it up.

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

It's true! #VerificationNation

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

I will gladly verify with whoever I need to that I am, indeed, me. No blue widge-a-doodle neccessary. #MrGreenVerified

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@NickQuient Jesus Saves.
Baptism is the response of a grateful, obedient disciple, methinks. 🤔

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@NickQuient 💥BAM!💥

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@TheJollyBrawler @NickQuient I gotta give you this one, I genuinely laughed. 🫡

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

I get the distinct impression that there are some amongst the CN crowd that are just chomping at the bit for an excuse to shed blood. I know Twitter (not calling it X) is a "hive-mind" sort of site, and one ought not view the yammering here as a certainty of this, but still...

Simply to be like Jesus...Amen! 🕊️

O to be more like Jesus—Jesus who died for me,
This is my heart’s great longing, this is my earnest plea.
Simply to be like Jesus—patient, and kind, and true;
Fill’d with His love, sent from above,
Then I His works would do

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@NickQuient Partridge is a twisted mind, to be sure. The gymnastics he engages in to deny Christ while claiming to be a follower of Christ astounds me. I imagine if he'd been amongst the crowd at the sermon on the mount, he'd shout, "Gay!" or "Libtard!"

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@NickQuient Hopefully, he pulls an Exodus 32:20 and burns and grinds that thing down and has all those gathered drink it. Worked back when...kinda. 🤔

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@NickQuient "Ack! Ack! Ack!"

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

A new creation...🕊️

Believing in the Resurrection of Jesus draws us into a new family - one that leaves no room for nationalism, tribalism, scarcity, or self-interest. @kaitlynschiess (🎙️Holy Post 655)

The machinations required for Statecraft and Nation building are antithetical to the teachings of Christ and His Kingdom. A "Christian Nation" is simply impossible.

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

@ReKnewOrg @dan All the people at @ReKnewOrg are the best people! 😉 See what I did there?

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

I noticed you guys still have Inspired Imperfection listed as Greg's latest and greatest. What about God Looks Like Jesus? 👀 @ReKnewOrg @dan

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

Truth!

[Dr. Eric Mason @pastoremase]

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

[Holy Post Media @HolyPost_Media]

Some believe the “real world” is governed by strength, force, and power. But as Christians, we can say that's actually not true.

We believe in a deeper, truer reality defined by Jesus Christ, who already defeated the powers & principalities on the cross. The logic of domination and scarcity is passing away, while the world God invites us into will not be shaken. @kaitlynschiess 🎙️Holy Post 708 (link in bio)

[Mr. Green @MrGreenExists]

So true. Why I constantly feel stuck out politically speaking.

[Holy Post Media @HolyPost_Media]

The Bible has a lot to say about greed, and it also has a lot to say about sexual ethics.

 "Both sides are cherrypicking the parts of Christian doctrine, ethics, and scripture that they want, and ignoring the parts that they don't."
