Which is a more ‘Christian’ chant “Let’s go Brandon” or “Pray for Biden”?

In the beginning, there was an obscene chant at the Talladega Superspeedway that NBC producers urgently needed to ignore during a live broadcast.

Interviewing winner Brandon Brown, reporter Kelli Stavast pretended the NASCAR crowd was chanting, "Let's go Brandon!" – not cursing President Joe Biden.

The rest is history, as the wink-wink slogan soaked into political jargon and mass media. What shocked the Rev. Seth Carter – a young Southern Baptist pastor in Kentucky – was when church people began baptizing "Let's go Brandon!" into common speech.

"To be clear, I am no supporter of our president's actions or policies. In no way do I feel support for him welling up inside of me," he wrote, in a Baptist Press commentary.

"However, I recognize that my feelings can never be the proper guide of the attitude I am to have toward him. As a Christian and a believer in the inspired, inerrant and infallible Word of God contained in the Bible, the truth of God's Word is what ought to guide my attitude toward President Biden (or any other leader for that matter)."

Christians could try chanting, "Pray for Biden," he said. They need to see Biden the way the apostles Peter and Paul viewed "the evil emperor of their day, Nero."

...

In response, the conservative Capstone Report website published an editorial claiming that "Baptist Pravda, err, Press" had demanded "submission to regime's lies."

Sorry, I can’t pray for the front man of an occupation government

” Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities.” America is unique, in that our governing authorities are the Decleration, the Constitution, and the Bill Of Rights.

The man is a lying tyrant and his administration is a cabal of evil. You don’t pray for that.

I’ve got news for reprobate msn

It’s not JUST Christians chanting.

( I pray genetically for our leaders, when I wake and lie down to sleep)

Don’t even try to tell me msn cares about Christians or our morals.

“Carter noted this First Peter passage: “Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority...”
= = =

2 Cor 11:
32In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me; 33but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped from his hands.

Looks like Paul didn’t submit himself to the governor of Damascus, under Arteas the king.

Not interested in being preached at by God hating atheists about how a Christian should be acting.

MSN, a non-Christian organization, has no standing when it comes to what Christians are or aren’t to say or do. Stay in your lane, MSN.

Matthew 16:23 - "Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me."   (That's pretty long for a chant.   Maybe we can shorten it to "Beat it, Beelzebub!"

It’s so cute when Satanists accuse people of not being Christian enough.

1 Timothy 2:1-4:
"First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way. This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, ..."

Not sure how this can be reduced to a catchy chant, but it is what we are commanded to do.
