Tim’s theme when dealing with the Russian problem with its war on Ukraine is to bring our focus to the propaganda effects where Putin used religion to affect his country’s expansion into Ukraine. Putin also uses nationalism in his appeal, and somehow this is to be seen by us as a condemnation of what’s happening here in America with Trump and the evangelicals.

I suggest that there are major differences. First the conservative Christians are uplifting Trump’s political policy actions with which he has already proven to be effective as he once governed, and this as opposed to the Russian example, which if Trump was following would have Trump using his religious propaganda to enlist Christianity into his cause. This is not happening.

Secondly, Trump’s nationalism agrees with the conservative Churches appeal to the one nation under God theme, which has been America’s theme for many decades from both parties. That is until it was not. We are as a nation to be a light to the world; we are not to be one with the world. “The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but he loves him who pursues righteousness” (Proverbs 15:9).

“The Lord loves those who hate evil” (Psalm 97:10). “The Lord loves the righteous” (Psalm 146:8). “His delight is not in the strength of the horse, nor his pleasure in the legs of a man; but the Lord takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love” (Psalm 147:10, 11; 103:13).

Trump’s view agrees that we are to be strong and separate; and he strongly believes that we are to be peacemakers in the world and not to be stirring wars. Our strength and our commitment to use it can help maintain that peace.

Russia’s purpose and methodology is more closely aligned to the liberal Churches alignment with the Democrat party and its approach. Progressives in the Republican Party unfortunately support them. Their methods are through propaganda to give our people a desire to support our intervention into other countries for regime change and resulting wars in order to have greater power throughout the world to turn those other governments of the world to our ways. I wrote about this in my first book. The end goal seems to be: a one world governance with the US as a leader in that world. Yet still there are also those outside as well as some inside our nation who are attempting to weaken us. So we have destructive enemies today at work against this sovereign nation.

The progressive liberals in this case are in favor of joining with the world by what ever means in their effort to secure peace.

The liberal church has thus joined with the progressive governments propaganda to effectively bring the sins of the nation and they are using the liberal church. Sin becoming ours is their tool. They attempt to do that in the name of loving one’s brother or enemy as the case may be. They in this way are exploiting Jesus’ words taking them out of context. They are joining with the world rather than being this light of righteousness for the world.

Are we the only nation to contain Christianity? – No, but we can’t overlook our beginnings and our later founding. Tim joins the progressive to change history, by spreading progressive lies concerning our founding.

One thing is certain in all of this: our nation is and will remain divided with or without revival. Sin has been exalted and it brings with it division. And should revival make further inroads for the kingdom, we still must remember: Jesus stated that He did not come to bring peace but a sword. And neither did He come to give His approval of sin, but to give us His Spirit to overcome that sin in our lives.

The comparison that Tim seems to want us to believe can be dismissed. The conservative church has its own sinners. That is true. Some more obvious than others, but her overall mission is pure, both spiritually and politically. It never stands on the work of any one man alone other than Jesus, but it stands on a commitment to God, and to His word. “The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but he loves him who pursues righteousness” (Proverbs 15:9). This is hard to overlook. Tim’s view of individual sins of persons within the right greatly overshadows his view of the progressives propensity to want all of us to embrace sin, or at the very least to approve it in the name of love. It is a formula for a countries downfall.

The real irony in this chapter is when comparing the quote above to what’s really happening with the liberal church and it’s hook up with the Democrat party. And then consider the warfare that is happening both here and abroad.
