@chima Brother Chima..welcome!!!!!
...we must never confuse the positive things that America does with the kingdom of God, for the kingdom of God is not centered on being morally, politically, or socially positive *relative* to other versions of the kingdom of the world. Rather, the kingdom of God is centered on being *beautiful*, as defined by Jesus Christ dying on a cross for those who crucified him.
Gregory A. Boyd, The Myth of a Christian Nation
Laws, enforced by the sword, control behavior but cannot change hearts.
Gregory A. Boyd, The Myth of a Christian Nation
Reading me some..here is a quote:
The evangelical church in America has, to a large extent, been co-opted by an American, religious version of the kingdom of the world. We have come to trust the power of the sword more than the power of the cross. We have become intoxicated with the Constantinian, nationalistic, violent mindset of imperialistic Christendom.
Gregory A. Boyd, The Myth of a Christian Nation
1Ti 1:15-16 KJV 15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

"History has shown that more Christians have died from Communist Marxism than any other single ideology in the history of man. Marxism has been tried on nearly every continent, in different nations, by different cultures, but there has never been a nation on earth that has adopted Marxist teaching and not systematically killed Christians."

@sinbach I read an article on this by World Magazine awhile ago...it's absolutely shocking!! The huge numbers of available body parts that are suddenly available are far beyond the rate of people dying in China!!
I have worked in Mission for coming up to 20years this August. It has been a great delight to be on the Front lines..to see Jesus save, heal and deliver. #Privileged
