I agree. Christians need to put being American ahead of being Christian too...
Actually, there are very few occasions when those two conflict. Can't think of any involving the US military unless you want to include conscious objectors.
Since Christians make up almost the entire American military what conflicts do you think they have with it, beards, refusing to wear helmets?
“Christians need to put being American ahead of being Christian too...”
I know a lot of people would be offended by that. But to me, America is clearly God’s own work. An empty continent saved for mankind, so we could have one last chance to escape the ways of the old world.
Putting the Constitution and our nation, as conceived, second to any religion is foolish to me. America is the incubator of free Christianity. It seems reckless to not see that. I would think that a true christian would think America must be protected at all costs. (internally and externally)
Amish are very good christians, but if we counted on them for our liberty, we would have none.
