“Christian Nationalist” Label Unites Some, Divides Others -

PRAY WITH US about Christian nationalist label: Father God, we declare You as Lord of the heavens and the earth and the sea and everything in them. And You gave Your Son Jesus “all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,” Jesus said. So in all that we do, remind us that we represent Him. And that through us, Jesus wants to show that He is Lord to the ends of the earth.

From the beginning, You gave us choice. In the same way, we must let people make choices. But You point out the consequences of their choices, and so must we. The ultimate consequences are heaven where we will find unlimited freedom in You. And hell, where unbelievers suffer without You. Show us how to make the most of every opportunity to unite together to be Your witnesses. For their sake and Yours. In Jesus’ name, amen.

PRAYER ALERT: “Christian Nationalist” Label Unites Some, Divides Others

Missionary Sean Feucht calls himself a Christian nationalist without apology. Does he want to see Christians become involved in politics? Of course. He and countless others want to unite Christians to witness to Jesus’ ways in the nation and the world. “How can Christians complain and whine about how dark, corrupt and crooked the political realm is,” he says, “if we aren’t bringing the light and hope of Jesus to it?”

The woke left uses the label “Christian nationalism” in a derogatory way to deny us our freedom of religion. Sadly, many Christians who fear that label that label shun and divide from Christians who don’t. Because such people think it means that Christians who govern should deprive others of freedom of religion.

Which Christian leaders today really believe that? Very few. On the contrary, we came to Christ by choice, not force. By grace, not by law. And we want to promote that same choice to others…
