TRUTH-TELLERS PRACTICE SPIRITUAL WARFARE
All Americans have a responsibility to confront Christian Nationalism. It is our country, and we should do whatever we can to promote unity, defend the Constitution and militate against those who would destroy our culture and institutions. Failure to confront Christian Nationalism is capitulation to religious and political tyranny.
This battle is different from other military conflicts. It is not a matter of recruiting trained soldiers and sending them off to fight while we remain secure in our homes. It is not a matter of protesting in the streets. And it is not political gamesmanship in legislative bodies, campaign trails or polling booths. This war is fought at home, at work, on the street, over the back fence, online, over the phone and anywhere else people communicate with one another. Spiritual warfare is a war of words wherever people meet and talk.
Christian Nationalists understand spiritual warfare by another name: politics. They use words as weapons to deceive gullible people who are ignorant of biblical truth, American history, and the essentials of the rule of law. The words they use appear to be true, and legitimate because they are repeated often and because they are cleverly disguised with patriotic and biblical legitimacy that conceals their evil intentions: dominate the seven mountains of American culture. These intentions advance the interests of Christian Nationalists by perpetrating injustice and oppression over people who are not like them.
Those who oppose Christian Nationalism also use words as weapons, but their words are based on truths found in the bible and unadulterated history. The reason they fight with words is to arrest the Christian Nationalism movement and preserve democracy by correcting injustice and restoring America’s Constitutional rights to all Americans.
Those who oppose Christian Nationalism understand that they must make personal sacrifices before they can become successful spiritual warriors. These sacrifices happen internally (i.e., in their hearts.) Making these sacrifices can be rightly called spiritual warfare because they involve internal struggles over the veracity of their own beliefs. Once biblical and historical truths are established in their hearts, they are ready to fight with words that are true.
