What has gone astray is the topic of this conversation. FYI - Traditional Reformed Presbyterian teaching is that there is a separation of church and state. But both are under the headship or authority of Christ and should seek to do His will as revealed in Scripture. John from the UK is very good at derailing the discussion; I suppose he has had much practice. As for me, perhaps I'll listen to another sermon.  |

I don't know of any Bishops in the Presbyterian Church. Also, I've heard that the American form of government with its checks and balances is based on the Presbyterian style of church government. As far as the Presbyterians taking over - only if God gives them the increase. As for me, I need to find out where Larry Kilgore is since I've nominated him for President of Texas. |

Dear Frank, No, I don't think you would intentionally mislead others and I apologize for painting you and John from the UK with such a broad brush. But you all must realize I am Reformed Presbyterian in my theology and will defend it and those who I believe rightly interpret Scripture. I really thought this was a place where I could express these beliefs without causing controversy. It might be best if I listen to more sermons and comment less. Sorry to have offended you. |

Praise the Lord for our Presbyterian heritage! Would one of you like to present the case that John Calvin, John Knox, or even RC Sproul was/is unscriptural? You can't... I am very disappointed in all of you who are trying to discount or malign the character of these men.  Why are you even on this forum? Is it to discourage or confuse the Lord's people? |

Hey Rufus! Yes, it was Larry Kilgore! He's a true Christian Statesman and I would gladly work for him again. He's the best! |

Dear Dietcan,
A Christian nation or commonwealth is going to explicitly acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord and the Christian religion as the true religion in it's founding documents. It will then base it's laws on Biblical Principles and actual laws as found in Scripture which would be applicable to today's society. What does a nation do with unbelievers? I suppose the same as Israel did... One certainly doesn't persecute them, but if they don't have a Biblical Worldview, then they certainly couldn't be elected as leaders. Anyway, this is just my opinion and there are better minds out there who can work through these details. Sadly, I can't think of any present examples of truly Christian nations or I would be clamoring to move there. |
