Today, I received a newsletter in my email from GabNews, a service of 20,000,000 member Gab, the conservative American social media site. Note that this newsletter is delivered to all 20,000,000 members plus non-member subscribers. The article is lengthy, so I have only posted a few excerpts:

?Every Christian is a Christian Nationalist? By: E. Wils

?Despite Christians instructing the magistrate on how they must govern to honor God being the historic protestant position of political theory, many have attempted to malign Christians with the label of ?Christian Nationalist? in an attempt to disarm them from public discourse on politics. This term has scared many Christians and caused them to reject Christian Nationalism. This article will respond to some of the major concerns many Christians have with what they perceive Christian Nationalism to be.?

?Christian nationalism can be summarized by this: God instituted governments to promote good and punish evil and it is a duty of the Christian to inform the magistrate of what God calls good and evil. This is because Romans 13 details that the government is established by God and is His minister. The word ?minister? used here is the same word used for both deacon and servant? ?diakonos?; the Christian then must inform the rulers on how they are to honor God with laws that promote good and punish evil.?

?Governments have been ordained by God to promote good and punish evil and they do this by instituting just laws. Since good and evil are defined by God, it is the Christian?s duty to inform rulers on how laws are to honor Christ.?

?The distinction between Christian Nationalism and Theocracy can be made because Christian Nationalism is about enforcing the second table of the Law and not the first. When God gave Moses the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20) the laws were divided into two tables. The first table, commandments one through three, dealt with God?s relationship with mankind and proper worship. This is administered through the body of Christ with the Church. The second table of the law, commandments four through ten, deals with man?s relation to his fellow man. This is basic civil law which is the duty of the government to enact. Since Christian Nationalism is about proper enforcement of the second table of the law Christians from varying traditions can unite around it as it does not involve the institution of laws regarding proper worship.?


The last time I looked, the first tablet of the Ten Commandments contained Commandments 1-4 (?laws regarding proper worship?) and the second tablet contained Commandments 5-10. A strategy vital to the Beast Sunday law agenda is revealed here: make the claim that the Fourth Commandment is part of the six that concern loving your neighbour rather than part of the first four concerning loving God. This justifies the enforcement of the mark as part of the ecumenical social gospel.

Everything is working together toward the endtime crises.
Lots of little steps --

Prophecy gives several prophetic conditions of what things will be like in the end.
Universal physical conditions, Universal moral conditions, prophetic political condition, prophetic worship condition, universal economical control, as well as the implementation world wide of the Mark of the Beast.
Natural chance of them all coming together at one time was considered impossible at one time.

But ............

Are we in the final Battle.
Battles of Faith, is the final crises here

The meetings going on now, especially today, are considered important to the enforcement of the Sunday Law issue.

Actually the big issue at Cop27 isn't sunday laws at present.
That's not to say Sunday laws may not be pulled up as a possible means to ease things.

BUT

The big issue right now at Cop27 is FINANCE,
Money Talks Climate Finance Cop27

The talks are rather at a stale mate right now, as the poorer countries demand the developed countries pay trillions of dollars for loss and damage to the poorer countries. The rich countries supposedly created the climate problem, but it is the poor countries that supposedly suffered the most from climate change. Basically the demand is that the more developed countries pay for all the strategies and implementations in the whole world to ease climate change, while the poorer countries just try to meet their energy needs.

I agree, dedication, the transfer of wealth in order to eradicate the middle class, is about to shift into high gear.

Has everyone seen the ?10+1 Climate Commandments??

1 - Acknowledge a Higher Power

Like in Alcoholics Anonymous, the first commandment is to acknowledge, with humility, that we are partners with and subservient to the Creator.

2 - Vote Climate

James Sternlicht, from the non-governmental organization The Peace Department, teaches that we have to hold governments and corporations accountable, since they are the ones desecrating our common home (does this remind you of Laudato Si': On Care for Our Common Home?)

with each new drilling license and pipeline.

3 - Do Not Murder

Since we know that millions of people will die from climate change, why doesn't the business-as-usual approach of most leaders make them accessories to murder?

4 - Do Not Steal

"Climate change is robbing our future, We are also robbing nature of her ability to regenerate."

5 - Do Not Bear False Witness

There are sins of omission?politicians not telling the truth about the real and immediate dangers of climate change; and there are sins of commission?the same leaders at the annual world climate conference, COP 27, who are approving new drilling and pipeline licenses.

6 - Keep the Sabbath

A global weekly non-carbon day of rest could reduce emissions of the world by a seventh, and can be observed by different faith communities.

7 - You Shall Innovate

8 - Honor Mother Earth

Kristina Greer, 15, from California says that climate change is a form of arson against the very home that nurtures our lives and that of all living creatures.

9 - You Need Not Covet

10 - Do Not Continue to be Hoodwinked

11: Do Not Give Up Hope or the Fight

The rise of the ancient Egyptian dynasties coincided with the rise of worship of Ra, the sun God. A new era of renewables must shine out of Egypt this November or our civilization, like that of the ancient Egyptians, will be doomed. When religious leaders of all faiths ascend Mount Sinai on Nov. 13, during COP27, they will seek to touch the heart of humanity and deliver a prophetic message. Sinai power worked once before to fuel moral revolutions; it must work again.

Yes, those alternate 10+1 commandments were also discussed in the "Climate Change and Sunday Law" thread. The religious groups have been trying to stimulate the Cop27 conference into more aggressive mandates by urging that it is their "moral responsibility" to get with it and do something.

Some activists took their new commandments on tables (simulating Moses tables of stone) up Mount Sinai, and in a ceremony mimicking Moses and his horror at finding the Israelites worshipping a calf, they took their tables and smashed them because nations weren't living up to their demands.

meanwhile in COP27 meetings the cbc reports: Nov. 19,2022


But isn't China pouring out more emissions than the more developed countries?



But the question that should be upmost in our minds I believe should be, how does God want us to relate to all this? It seems the darkness is pressing in all around us. How do Christ's followers relate to it all?

Was it approved unanimously?

As nobody answered my question, I assumed that nobody here knew the answer to my question.

I don't think there was unanimous agreement on anything, Herding people is like herding cats.

A new crisis needs to be created to get everyone on board.

Looks like they are raising it back up again..
