Interesting way of putting it, and accurate as far as I’m able to decipher. I can’t think of a denomination that has been a State Church that doesn’t believe this, or one that hasn’t that does.
Being a State Church breeds hubris in more ways than one, it would seem. The Founders were more right than they ever knew.
Let me try and clarify it a little more. I could be wrong and I am happy to look at any serious input on the idea. I believe the Anglican, Presbyterian, Lutheran churches are all supersessionist. These churches are similar to the Roman Catholic Church in that they were protected entities of the state and to varying degrees had influence or control over their respective states.
Other churches that existed prior to the Reformation, or emerged after it, that were always separate from the state are not usually supersessionist; for example the Waldensian, Anabaptist, Methodist among others.
