Christian Patriarchists and Christian Nationalists must recognize each other as brothers in Christ, part of the same universal body of Christ, if they are ever to be truly united against a world that opposes Christian Patriarchy and Christian Nationalism.

This means we need to stop the silliness on all sides where some Protestants say you can’t be saved and be a member of the Catholic church or Catholics say salvation only comes through the Catholic church.

How will Christians of various denominations ever unite over the need to bring back Christian Patriarchy and Christian Nationalism if they don’t even recognize the other as a Christian?

The Bible is clear that we are not saved through membership in any particular local church belonging to any particular denomination (Catholic, Orthodox, Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran…ect).

We are added to the membership of the universal body of Christ, the universal church (not to be confused with the Catholic church of Rome) when we believe. 

But after we believe and are added to the membership of the universal body of Christ, then we should seek out membership in a local manifestation of that body, a local body or local church. See the Scriptures below which show this.

Ephesians 1:12-13 gives us the process by which we are saved:
“12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise”

1. We hear the Gospel.
2. We believe the Gospel and trust in Christ as our Lord and Savior.
3. When we believe, we are sealed with the Holy Spirit.

Christ said there were two kinds of baptism, one done by men and the other done by the Holy Spirit and this the sealing of the Holy Spirit referred to in Ephesians 1:12-13 which occurs the moment we believe.

Us being sealed by the Holy Spirit is also referrered to as the baptism of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12:12-13:

“For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.”

1 Corinthians 12:12-13 proves that the moment we believe and are indwelled by the Holy Spirit that the Holy Spirit baptizes us into “one body” – the universal body of Christ, the universal church – not to be confused with the church of Rome which is simply one many Christian denominations.

Paul separated water baptism from the baptism of the Holy Spirit that occurs at the moment of belief when in 1 Corinthians 1:17:

“For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.”

Water baptism, unlike the baptism of the holy spirit which comes after we believe, is NOT part of the salvation process, not part of the Gospel.  Instead, water baptism is a picture of the baptism of the Holy Spirit that happened when we believed and is done when we join a local church.

Christian denominations like the Catholic, Orthodox, Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran or other churches do not save us.  Only believing on Christ as out Lord and Savior can save us and when we are save we added to the universal spiritual body of Christ and then we seek out and join a local manifestation of that universal body.

I don’t want to just see patriarchy and nationalism restored to America, I want to see CHRISTIAN patriarchy and CHRISTIAN Nationalism restored to America. 

We as conservative and patriarchial Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant Christians can and must unify together from a political perspective if we are to be successful in this.

Doing this does not mean we must drop all our denominational distinctive beliefs to do this.  But it does mean we must recognize one another as brothers and sisters in Christ.

In means we have to leave behind the wrong behaviors of the past where Christians persecuted other Christians over non-essenial doctrines. 

In times past fellow believers, believers in the Trinity, the death burial and resurrection of Christ for our sins, and the Bible being the Word of God imprisoned and killed one another over power struggles and non-essential doctrines. 

We need to be the generation that leaves all that sinful behavior behind.

And some Protestants (my Baptist ancestors) overreacted to state church persecution and abuses by Catholics and other Protestants by attacking patriarchy and nationalism itself instead of seeking to reform Christian Nationalism to allow for freedom of Christian denominations and freedom of Christian Patriarchs to lead their homes as they would.

We can vigorously debate doctrinal differences while recognizing our common membership in the universal body of Christ and our common King, Jesus Christ.

And I say all this as a Protestant, Baptist Christian that I believe Catholics and Orthodox Christians are a part of the same universal body of Christ that I am – if they are true believers in the Trinity and the Gospel.

Does this mean all who believe in the Trinity and the Gospel are our political allies? No! They may be saved but if a believer rejects the doctrines of patriarchy or nationalism as found in the Bible they are in error and must be separated from politically speaking.
