We are two nations today —Christian and non-Christian. 250 years ago we were a mostly Christian nation — the fruit of 1000+ years of European Christianity. But we squandered that by embracing the enlightenment and the idea of a secular state. Now it is time to disciple & rebuild.

Jesus is King of kings. Not “will be”. He *is* King of kings (1 Tim. 6:15). And He has commanded us to teach our nation to obey everything He has commanded. Yet many Christians delegate “teaching rulers” back to Jesus. We should teach God’s law to rulers in God’s name.

Emphasizing love without teaching the judicial aspects of Christianity leads to redefinition of love and tacit approval of evil. It's happening all around us. In this fantasy, God doesn't punish or discipline. Lines go fuzzy then disappear. Clear preaching of law guards love.
