Christian Nationalism - What Is It Really All About?

What is it really about? 🤔 Christian Nationalism ignores scripture as it tramples on folk in its fervor to "reclaim" America for God by making the religious beliefs of a subset of this Nation into laws that govern all of the Nation. Here are just two of those scriptures that's inconvenient to their cause. John 18:36 NKJV 36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” John 14:2-3 NKJV  2 In My Father’s house are many [a]mansions; if it were not so, [b]I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. The Lord never asked us to make this world His by force...forcing folk to right living and choices by making our religious beliefs and interpretation of scripture into laws. He told us to let our

Just Teach Them 2 + 2 = 4 and The ABCs.

I love the Word of God. There is no other written word like it.  I also believe Christianity is all about choice.  * We chose to believe the Word.  * We chose to accept the work Christ did for us on the cross.  * We chose to obey or disobey the Word of God.  Christianity is not about force feeding or ramming the Word down anyone's throats. That is NOT what "compel them to come" means.  Force feeding and ramming the Word down someone's throat only satisfies the religious hypocrisy of the people doing the ramming.  Government officials are mandating that the Bible and Ten Commandments (which are also a part of the Bible) be taught in schools.  Some Christians are having praise breaks because of the rulings.  Let me ask you this: If a Muslim becomes a State Governor or School Superintendent and mandates that their religious text, the Koran, be taught in schools, will Christians think that's worthy of a praise break? Will they be ecstatic about their little Johnny and

It Doesn't Wash

Christians are justifying voting for Donald Trump by saying they're voting for a President, not a pastor. Statements like those get scoffed at and generate push back against the Church because the following is how their actions are really viewed:  If the person you vote for is a murderer, you are supporting a murderer. If they're a serial killer, you're supporting a serial killer. If they're a bigot/racist, you're supporting a bigot/racist. If they're a rapist, you're supporting a rapist. If they're a habitual liar, you're supporting a habitual liar. If they're a nasty and contentious person, you're supporting a nasty and contentious person. If they're a cheat and con, you're supporting a cheat and con.  So...these quips flying around as justification just don't wash, especially with the world...you know, those souls we're supposed to be winning for Christ. Just keepin' it real...

Grow Up Already!

Being a Babe in Christ isn't about the number of years you've been professing to be a Christian. It has everything to do with how carnal (can't understand or apply the truth of the Word, controlled by fleshly desires, wants, and passions) you are. We start out as Babes in Christ when we first become Christians but at some point, there should be/has to be some growth. We have to "grow up".  Some folk have been Christians for decades but are still Babes in Christ. They're just as carnal now as they were on day one of their conversion.   They see themselves as mighty lions when they're still babes that can only digest formula and pablum. They need constant and repeated redirection from things, people, and choices that can hurt or mislead them. It's easy to identify the Babes in Christ by what they do, what they allow, and without a doubt...what comes out of their mouths. Just keepin' it real...

Why Black Folk Vote Democratic

Why do Black folk vote Democratic? It's not because we're ignorant, and it has nothing to do with having a plantation mentality.  If you really want to know, here's a simplified historical breakdown of why.  Slavery: * Republican Party ended slavery. * Southern Democratic Party fought for slavery. * Northern Democratic Party was against slavery.  Post-Civil War thru Reconstruction: * Republican Party was for Black civil and political rights and was considered the Negro dominated party. * Southern Democrats were against any rights for Black folk and considered themselves the White man's party. Note: This is when the switch is Democratic and Republican Party ideologies slowly began.  By Post-Reconstruction (1877): * Republican Party began to lose political interest in the plight of the freed slaves and began to support big business. * Southern Democrats (the White man's party) took back/recaptured their states, passing Jim Crow laws to facilitate keeping Black folk su

Who Changed?

I remember when fraud, adultery, porn, lying, sexual sin, bigotry, cheating, nastiness, etc. were Bible thumping sermons declaring God is not pleased and you'd better repent. Now, the Church (some, not all) knowingly elevate folk who live in such places into positions of leadership and power declaring them to be men/women of God, sent by God, and approved by Him. Who changed?  The Bible says God does not change...so who changed? Instead of reflecting and repenting after seeing the consequences of elevating folk who boldly live in contradiction to the Word, there are STILL those in the Church ready and willing to do it AGAIN. But you know what? God is still not pleased with sin for He does not change.  If sin was wrong yesterday, it's still wrong today for God does not change. If God has not changed, then who changed? Just keepin' it real...

Wrong is Wrong

* She should be fired. * She should be disbarred. * She's unfit for her job. * She's a wh***. * Nasty quips regarding her body shape. * Hateful statements about how she looks. That's just a tiny portion of the negative things said and shared about Fani Willis--the Black woman who is also the District Attorney of Fulton County, Georgia--by MAGA and other Republicans when her affair with a married man was exposed. Trump's extramarital affairs and sleaziness are now waving in the wind before the world.  * Where's that outrage now?  * Where are the calls for him to not run for public office?  * Where are the declarations that he's unfit to hold the highest office in this Nation? What I am hearing is his followers giving him passes left and right. Trump's extramarital affairs are no big deal. They are just not that important to them.   Adultery is just as wrong and appalling for Trump as it was in Fani's case. If Fani deserves to be severely punished and fire
