I agree with you that religion can be used to control others in many devious ways. When I look at English history, religion and Christianity has manipulated many people and many have died at the hands of fanatics, a well rhymed and poignant post Beth, love Dolly x x x

It is sad that Christianity can be manipulated in such a way.

Comment from royowen
Jesus actually warned us, there would be many that come in His name, the truth is, Christians should pray for their governments, but the truth is, only Heaven will be left standing eventually, we are sojourners on the earth (Psalm 119:19) and citizens of Heaven, well done Beth, great post, blessings Roy

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Christian Nationalism, presented with AABB-rhymed quatrains, reminds the readers: :Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 7:21

Comment from Tom Horonzy
Faith is to be the catalyst for change in a sinner to being better than the day before, and yet over the past few decades churches of every ilk have found a way for collection plates even if it means misconstruing the written word.

I agree that we should be supporting any relilgious movement that is misconsturing the written word and a political movement is to kept separate. The Bible say render onto Ceasar the things which Ceasar an until God that which is God's. Mixing governent with the Christian in order to raise money is wrong.
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
I've been watching this for some time, and I agree that this is a very serious problem. I've heard of pastors being removed from their churches because they refuse to publicly advocate for the congregation's chosen candidate.
I think we're headed for a dark place come November.
Very well stated in your poem.

Thank you Pam, I didn't realize until lately how dangerous or wide spread it was. It is turly alarming. To many just see the word and an assume it must be alright. I really appreciate the six stars.

Beth, Thank you so much for sharing this with us. The devil is very bush these days because he does not have much time left. Jesus is coming and the devil knows he has to try and take away as many from God as he can. love and blessings, Teri

Thank you, Teri. I think church going people that see the word christian in the title and think it much be right because I see it a Christian organization without checking out it's origins. It is scary I appreciate the review.

This is an excellent home with a Clarion call for discretion and inspection. There are so many people who call themselves Christians these days that you don't always know what they stand for. Thanks for your cautionary tale that will help us to vote as we aren't.

You are most welcome Beth and I just noticed my final sentence ended with the wrong word. I meant to say: "Your cautionary tale will help us to vote as we ought."

This is duplicate. Sometimes that happens to me too.

Yeah, this happens to me more than I want anybody to know. I believe it is what they call: "Pilot Error." L.O.L.

When it was happening to me. I looked for causes on Google and found it could happen if your modem isn't plugged in tight. I sure enough found my was loose. It hasn't happened lately.

Thanks Beth, that's good to know.
I don't think that's my situation though, because I don't use an external mouse. I have a Mac that I use most of the time and it has a built-in mouse.
(Don't tell anybody, but I have a habit of double clicking.) I don't think you need to do that as much as you used to for a number of different things. I have just failed to except change. (I still keep wanting to put two spaces at the end of a sentence.) L O L (I'm old!)
Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
An excellent entry for the Faith Poetry Contest. Beautifully written and I wish it could be read and understood by all Americans before November. Christian Nationalism is more frightening than anything we have encountered in the past and it has taken a firmer hold than most of us would have considered possible. Thank you for sharing. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you Marilyn. I knew it was out there but until I started reading about it and it's dangers, I didn't realize how widespread it was already.

Comment from patcelaw
it is true that we need to watch carefully and be educated voters before we go to the polls. I believe that this election coming up for America is one that is just absolutely important for the life and the values of this nation. God bless you Patric.

Thank you Patricia. I think people ought to spend a lot of time in prayer asking to show them what they need to do. This is a tipping point for America and we can't allow it to be destroyed.
