How naïve. Where did you ever see in scripture where Christ or the apostles taught to subject others or governments. Where is it taught that we are to “fix society”? Spreading the gospel is to individuals and nations but if they reject that gospel then we are to “shake the dust off” and move on. Exhorting and rebuking is for those who say they are believers but promoting doctrine that is in error. Discussing sound doctrine is from scripture. Subjecting people or nations is not.

Despite your assumed prowess with scripture, you apparently are woefully naïve about this nation’s foundation.

No one was discussing ‘conquering’ others or this government with the Gospel.

I was discussing PRESERVING our liberties which were ROOTED in both the Christian religion and biblical morality, a moral culture that the church was charged with maintaining.

Apparently we can’t do that according to people like you - we can only bash other Christians over their understanding of scripture while sitting silent in the face of a wicked agenda being imposed by force of law.

You’ll stand against other Christians and denounce them and their understanding, but you won’t stand against real evil and denounce wickedness being promoted as good while our right to free exercise is being eroded.
