Vice President JD VANCE has easily exposed the double standards used by progressive Christians to criticize US leaders.
It began with an interview with Fox News, a dedicated Catholic, who talked to Sean Hanity about immigration and talked about immigration about immigration.
“You love your family, you love your neighbors, you love your community, you love your colleagues in your own country, and then you are the other than the world. Vance can concentrate on people and prioritize. ” “Many of the left ends have completely reversed it. They hate citizens in their country and seem to be more concerned about people other than their borders. It's not a way to operate society.”
That's true.
Through history, Christians taught the principles of moral proximity and re -enforced-
Otherwise Ordamoris -The VANCE is clear.
Augustine
I wrote about it。 Thomas Aquinas I inserted it。 I like Protestant theology John Calvin and Harman Bavink I taught it. Even CS Lewis wrote about it. And of course, The Bible supports it。
Not novel. That is common sense.
Loving your “neighbors” is not always excluding anyone, but we have limited abilities and finite resources that can show your neighbors. It makes sense to receive most of our neighbors, as we live closest to our family, neighbors, friends (that is, our community).
On the other hand, if we distribute love to people far away, we will do the disadvantage of the closest people to us.
Yes, the parable of the good Samarians of Jesus teaches the powerful truth about our neighbors. In the parable, the man who seemed to be dead was the priest and the Levians. because His proximity to them. Jesus loves the man who seems to be dead and is responsible for taking care of the man who seems to be dead (see Levi 19:18; Review 21:23). : 1-3;
Nevertheless, he accused the Christian barrage accused Vance and promoted the anti -Christian opinion.
There are several examples here:
- “No, no” Claimed James Martin, the priest of the Jesuits.
- “I am a scholar who was trained in one of the best conservative gospel the United States, the best of the best geonism in the United States. This is not the concept of Christianity. It is a Western personalist concept.”
I said Josch Thomas. - “It is important to point out that this is the opposite of what Jesus teaches.” Claimed Progressive Rev. Zack Lambert.
- “This may be the concept of” school “. But it is not a “very Christian concept.” ” Claimed Rev. THABITI ANYABWILE.
- “There is no idea in the New Testament anywhere in the Bible. Team Trump has rewritten Christianity,” Claimed Professor Philip Goff.
The most interesting thing about Vance's response is the discourse of Christianity in public plazas, “Christian nationalism is a threat to American democracy” to “this is what the Bible actually says.”
Another example is that Bishops of Bishop Marian Baddy are specializing in the clergy of “mercy” to President Donald Trump.
When Joe Biden was a president a few weeks ago, where were these Christians? Why didn't they talk about the truth to power?
Not to mention what Jesus himself taught, how to demand that American society, such as unlimited abortions and transdorogies, which match the traditions and teachings of the Bible and churches, are fundamentally adopted ant Christian policies. Are you? This is what the Biden administration has, and it was silent that these prophecy voices tell the truth to power.
Professor Catholic, Edward Feather, completely emphasized these double standards.
If you feel that bending your teeth from the corner of Christianity is selective, that's right.
For almost 10 years, Trump's Christian supporters and magazine exercise are not conservative Christians, but as Christian ethnists, despite the data indicating that advanced Christians are most political. I've been painted.
So what is happening exactly here?
I think it's a Christian Professor Owen Anderson Completely diagnosed This phenomenon.
According to Anderson, advanced Christians, who praise the accusation of “Christian Nationalism”, really wants to “impose a theological vision through national machinery.”
“They combine church's moral orders to the government's clear responsibility, and effectively turn the nation into an executor of Christianity. I will explain。 “This confusion harms both the church and the nation.”
In other words, advanced Christians are silent when the Democratic Party agrees with the policy, when the Democratic Party holds power. However, they rediscover the ability to speak the “truth to power” when Republican members hold power and enact policies that they do not agree.
Ironic cannot be denied.
Advanced Christians can quickly accuse their conservatives that their religion is politicizing, and even accuse politics as idols. At present, progressive is exposed their own habits of swinging theology as political weapons, and the accurate sins they preach.
On the other hand, thank you for having Vans leaders who mainly teach classical Christian teachings.
