Bible Question: When we hear that the United States must be returned back to it's Christian roots, when was the United States ever a genuine Christian Nation? Why do we always seem to think that some time ago people were so much more Christian? |
Bible Answer: Hi justme, Much to the shock of many, there is no such thing as a Christian Nation. People aren’t saved just because they belong to a certain nation or even a particular family group. Exhibiting and adhering to Christian principals doesn’t make a nation Christian, just as doing things that Christians do doesn’t make one a Christian. Just because my wife and I have been saved doesn’t mean that our children are saved. God doesn’t have any grand children only children, and they become that way only by personal faith in God’s Son. Galatians 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. This is all done on an individual basis as God reveals truth to those that have a desire to know Him. Have a great day, CDBJ |
