Quite an illustration....

To wit: anyone who still thinks "Christian Nationalism" has ANYTHING to do with Christ needs to spend a minute reflecting on His Word and His Journey to the Cross, and then read this article. If the contrast doesn't turn your stomach, you're on the wrong side of history, and we pray for your soul.

Mark Robinson’s newly explicit calls for killing perceived enemies show how seamlessly Christian nationalists can glide into promoting real violence.

Testify!

And that’s the problem we all have today in society. The “informed minority” finds it fairly straightforward to fool the masses into thinking what they WANT us to think - how could Mr Trump have convinced such a large percentage of the country that his election - and ONLY his, mind you, which is the most absurd part - was somehow suppressed despite sharing ZERO actual evidence with us (or anyone - the courts, media, you name it)? It’s straight forward psychology.

The two major political parties no longer exist. One title now belongs to those who worship at the feet of a habitual liar, philanderer, sociopath and budding fascist who aspires to become dictator. The other, in response, has necessarily become the home of anyone hoping to save the Constitution in the wake of the former “party’s” attacks.

One American political party has collapsed; the other is holding together a fragile prodemocracy coalition.

Alas, it’s become truth. And not a social one.

Donald Trump has made the Republican Party cruel, xenophobic, exclusionary, and bigoted.

"You do not want to leave too, do you?" Jesus asked the Twelve.
Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God."
— John 6:67-69 NIV

Jesus told the crowd of Jews that was following Him that they must believe in the one the Lord had sent, that they must believe in Him (John 6:29). The Jews had a problem with this. They had a problem with the belief that Jesus was the one sent from heaven, that He was something more than a mere mortal. They asked, '"Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, 'I came down from heaven'?"' (John 6:42).

Many of the Jews that had been following Jesus turned away from Him that day. This prompted Jesus' question to the Twelve in our verse for today: "You do not want to leave too, do you?" Peter answered that Jesus had the words of eternal life. Jesus had the words that would save anyone who believed them from eternal death and destruction. Peter knew that if Jesus' words were true, then you can't just walk away from Him, you can't just ignore Him.

Peter said they could not walk away because they had come to believe that Jesus was the one sent from above, that He truly was "the Holy One of God." They had been enabled by the Father in heaven above to come to Jesus and believe in Him (John 6:65). Although Jesus' life and ministry testified to the truth of His claim, it still took a special work of the Father to enable them to believe. Indeed, it takes a special work of grace from the Father for anyone to believe.

Once the decision is made, once the belief comes about, however, you have only one option. You have to stay with Jesus and follow Him. You can't go back to where you were, you can't follow someone else, you can only take up your cross and follow Jesus, wherever that may lead (Matthew 16:24). There may be trials, troubles, tribulations, and persecutions, but it doesn't really matter.

For if the Father has enabled you to believe in Jesus, then there is simply no other place to go.
