Should Christians Celebrate 4th of July? 

Ammeennnnn!

The founding father's were masons and not for God. Thomas Paine for example wrote a heretical essay/book against God. Don't be fooled that we are a "christian" nation, because we are not. We were not founded by Christians just most Satanists masquerading as angels of light. There is a great video about who the founding father's really were on youtube somewhere.

Which isn't this one

If you see an ungodly nation before you, then become the change you would like to see. "The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest". Matthew 9:37-38

War for independence. It was not a revolution.

What about the Civil War?

@@EarlSimmons-f2n God is sovereign. Nothing happens unless He allows it (not necessarily approving of what’s happened) or unless He causes it to happen.

@@siegistic how do you distinguish providence for one war vs another?

@@EarlSimmons-f2n I never said God’s providence wasn’t over every war. Of course it is. But there are wars where God makes it more obvious to the non-theologically oriented.

Trump will save our country in 2025!!

Amen brother!

I hear you. I can’t disagree with what your saying. However, we can’t forget that our nation today perpetuates evil on a global scale. We’ve got the blood of 60+ million innocents on our hands (who knows how many more in unjust war killings), fly the flag of Sodom around the world, pass unjust laws to oppress the people of God and promote sodomy and commit those very acts they are promoting in buildings that have the word of God etched on them. I could go on but you already know. Whoever is not with me is against me. Is the US today for or against Christ?

Love this 🫡

Christians, Mormons, Muslims, Catholics and whatever other religion you can think of are free to practice their faiths in America.

@@MaxvanBrian yes!! Puritans cleansing themselves from the catholic church is pretty cool 😎

You provide a valuable service. thank you!

Thank you.

Greeting my Friend Dublin huh; well E.A.N. Bro!!-)

Jesus said to obey authorities like police, pay your taxes ect for they are out there for justice for god alows them in this temporary world. but I don’t know about celebrating a world country that won’t exist once gods kingdom is here. In the end it’s man made, voting for a president isn’t biblical if you are a true servant of Jesus because that should be the only kingdom you devote your life too. It is said man shouldn’t govern man like the Bible says, it leads to what is happening now it’s been corrupt and will KEEP becoming more corrupt through every year we celebrate it just like the Bible profitized . Every nation on top will fall just like the Bible has profitized with ancient Egypt, Asiria, Greece Ancient Rome ect. If you’re on top one day even if it’s thousands of years later you will fall. And so will this nation. I don’t know but I truly believe yes we are the “greatest nation” for now but it will come with a consequence just as it did to past nations and I believe it will be with the coming of Christ since this nation if extremely lost to god with all the lgbt nonsense in schools to kids that god knows shouldn’t be exposed to. All in all if we follow a nation and celebrate it we should be celebrating more our kingdom coming of Jesus Christ. If not you are hipocrite if you choose to still live to vote or celebrate for a temporary nation. Like this video says “do those actions please god?” It’s something for all of us to meditate.

@@eliascastanon3505 Are you Amish or Mennonite?

@@christalone71 How’s it going brother? I was born and raised a Jehovah’s witness but after trying to prove my catholic girlfriend wrong and seeing that I was deceived the further I dove into the Bible I now I want to witness the one and only Jesus Christ throughout my life. I still sin and am struggling with sin daily but I know Jesus is the way the truth and the life. Like I said there’s many things to meditate about throughout our life including these holidays

The light*

@@eliascastanon3505 Very happy to hear that you have come out of that cult. Praise the Lord for that. I pray your gf is also truly saved and knows the Lord. You seem to be truly zealous for truth. Glad you are here listening to their podcast. I've learned a lot from them. Is "the light" a Christian organization or group? Sorry if I am asking too many questions.

That's right lol. Here in baldwin county it's miserable lol

For sure. I'm in N. Alabama near Decatur. Hotter than Hades and much more humid lol

And we took away someone else’s land . How lame

@@RippedJym”we” did no such thing. Where are you messaging from anyway? America?

@@RippedJym I didn't take anyone's land, I don't know of any living american who took the US from anybody. However the natives here's did the same with one another. Terrible argument

Think I heard of that. Who’s in that again?

How about you prove your freedoms are “God” given 1st. Just because the authors of the constitution thought so doesn’t mean God gave you them. Unless you’re assuming all rights given to Americans are God given, which would mean the right to an ab0rtion is perfectly fine is some states.

@@Yela927 The rights in the constitution are inherent to us as human being since we image-bearers of God, so they came from the Creator and are protected by the constitution. The example that you used isn't a right. Its a violation of one of the rights inherent to humans given by God, so it should and will be banned

@@OfficerTyreek name one right in the constitution that is upheld by explicitly in the Bible.

@@Yela927 "You shall not murder" upheld by the "right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" in the constitution and enshrined in laws against murder

@@OfficerTyreekyou might’ve scared them off 😬👍🏾

Mark is awesome

@@andreatimmers1720 Very much so.

Lol

@@joem13yearsago73 You think God's judgment is funny?

@@crewdog2898 You neither know, much less care, anything about me. I'm actually working, like I do every day but Sunday. But, again, you don't know or care anything about me.

I think Chrisitans can celebrate the blessings God had graciously shown to this country, and be thankful for the freedom we still enjoy, while also praying for national repentance.

​@@Yesica1993 Good for you.

The kingdom of God does not spread by sword. The kingdom of God is the rule and reign of Christ. It is difficult to surmise what you’re even claiming. You recognize there is a time to protect oneself or engage in just war while denying what? Peter didn’t ‘fight?’ Help me understand.

​@@Postmillhighlights he states its sinful to not provide for your family. It is a very black and white statement without looking at the whole body of scripture and other examples we have of apostles not providing for their family and actually dying for sharing the gospel with a wife at home such as Peter (at minimum he had a wife possibly children too). There seems to be a lack of discussion about how does the tension of what they are claiming and what we see in the book of Acts and how the apostles and others in the early church died without armed resistance for preaching the gospel. There doesn't seem to be teaching in this video (i only got 3/4ths through so maybe its still to come) about when is it appropriate to not fight back or not provide for your family. Again I think its not the norm by any stretch, but the absolute language they use about not providing for your family and how sinful it is seems to not consider parts of scripture. When is it biblical and when isn't it. I first heard the revolutionary war possibly wasn't biblical from John McArthur when he clearly said it wasn't biblical and any blessings are not because of their decision but in spite of it and God still blessed the US through it. (this was in his first conversation with Ben Shapiro probably 6 years ago or so..?)

Also just to be clear I celebrate the 4th of July, we pray for our nation every Sunday at the church I attend. So I am not anti America

Because a lot of christians think it was a sinful rebellion to leave England, the church, and fight for freedom.

@Quint-ib4nf Exactly what do you mean by he went crazy?

Covering the biblical side has never been Durbin's strength as a Theonomist. The more biblical you are the less you can be a Theonomist.

@@PsychoSpartan7 what an unhelpful comment

Uh yeah… if it can stop them from stumbling, absolutely. If you saw a professing Christian committing idolatry, wouldn’t you tell em? Come on buddy

@@Judoka512 I’d expect a Christian to know he’s doing wrong in the first place. And we’re talking about 4th of July, not infidelity.

@@vwr32jeep I think your expectations exceed reality. Not everyone knows they’re in sin, or are partaking in a certain sin all the time. Many times a brother or a sister have to bring it to their attention

@@Judoka512 And I think ppl generally know the difference between right and wrong. Beyond that, I think some ppl look for ways to control others to advance their own agendas by making obscure and irrelevant connections to someone’s beliefs.

​@@vwr32jeepidolatry

Non-issue.

Acknowledging Independence Day gives credence to it, rather than a day to drink beer and eat hot dogs. Especially for kids that are not being taught history in school, & what this day represents.

That's a valid point now that I think about it.

I get them endlessly, let them waste campaign dollars targeting the wrong audience 😂😂😂

I think it’s unfair to characterize the founders as bloodthirsty, trigger happy, warmongers. They petitioned against war against the crown at every chance they could, while civilly asking for just governance from the crown and parliament. The Declaration of Independence wasn’t signed and sent to the crown until a year after getting shot at by red coats. They feared war and didn’t want it, but when the crown and parliament refused, they defended themselves.

What New Testament principle was violated? Is it possible the British violated NT principles? Is it possible, they were the ones to violate Rom 13?

@@Postmillhighlightsthey always look at Romans 13 as only applying to one side 😂

Cant we celebrate others holidays with them?
