Good Evening, Emile! From Christ's viewpoint there is no Christian nation: "My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight... but now is my kingdom not from hence" John 18:36
At Matt 4 & Luke 4 Satan offered Jesus all kingdoms: "To thee I will give all this authority, and the glory of them: for it hath been delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it"
Jesus and Paul confirmed Satan's authority: "The god of this world hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving." 2 Cor 4:4
"If the world hateth you, ye know that it hath hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you." John 15:18-19
"Now shall the prince of this world be cast out." "The prince of this world cometh: and he hath nothing in me" John 12:31, 14:30 16:11
"The God of heaven [shall] set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed ..it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever." Dan 2:44
"The kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against him that sat upon the horse" [Jesus] Rev 19:19
"Jehovah hath indignation against all the nations, and wrath against all their host: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter." Isa 34:2
Emile, mankind's only hope is Christ's Kingdom, of which he gave 36 parables. It shall rule from heaven, transforming Earth into a paradise. "Thy will be done on earth." |
