Charlie Kirk's legacy exposes a corrosive lie — and now it's time to choose

 

 

 

I want, I need, a definition for what is meant by anyone throwing around the term “Christian Nationalism.” Because it’s generally tossed around in a derogatory manner. By mostly left-leaning, anti-God, anti-Christian, anti-Bible folks. In an attempt to silence Christians from speaking regarding developments within our culture that go against God’s word.

I’ve heard pastors, I heard people say it to my face, I’ve read it — from professed Christians — that no one wants to make America a “Christian nation.” It goes against our freedoms, which were given by God.

Yes, we, those who are born anew, faithful and obedient servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, are sojourners here. Pilgrims. America, for that matter, this present earth is not our true home. That does not translate into our being silent, hiding, shirking our responsibilities and duty as Christ’s followers in the presence of evil, when darkness attempts to overcome the light.

Throughout history, Biblical history, whenever God’s people turned to Him, obeyed Him, served Him, and repented of their sin, they were greatly blessed and prospered. When God’s people disobeyed, everyone went their own way, when they forsook God and turned to idols, to themselves, to the material world as their master, when they turned to alien and foreign practices and beliefs, they greatly suffered. To the point of being taken into bondage. Slavery. Scattered. With great suffering.

Do you believe in God? The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob [Israel]? The God of the Holy Bible? Are you born again in the faith of the shed blood and resurrection of the LORD Jesus Christ? Are you an American? Either by birth or by naturalization? Why then all the protestations about being such and attempting to shed responsibility, duty as such?

Was it not the apostle Paul who used his citizenship in his defense and in his using the government at hand to be brought to Rome? Was he silent, passive, idle in his ways, and just sitting in some pew on the Sabbath or on some hilly place in retreat? Hardly. How about any of the prophets, any of the apostles, and countless others given to us as examples in God’s whole word? Such as Esther, King David, Moses, and a host of others.

No one wants a theocracy in this American Constitutional Republic, but America was BLESSED, CONCEIVED, and BROUGHT ABOUT AS A CHRISTIAN NATION. America was only possible by the hands of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. If you do not know this, or believe this, you have never learned the actual, factual, real history. Take some time to do that. It will, or should alter how you think, live, work, and interact with others for the rest of your life in this nation, as God blesses you with every breath, every heartbeat, every opportunity given.

Always at work. To bring about this great land and nation.

It’s utter rubbish to preach, say, or write that America should not be a Christian nation.

We are not commanded to sit back and allow those in utter darkness, pagans, those following false religions, which will not afford or reward the followers with salvation and eternal life, to continue in their vain pursuits.

Leave the Constitution alone. Hands off!

Leave the Bill of Rights alone. Hands off!

Especially leave the Holy Bible alone! Hands off, except to take hold of that book, open it, read it daily, study it, meditate — think deeply upon what is read — and apply daily in life.

Do not for a moment imagine, foolishly, in grave error, of we the people bring about the kingdom of God on earth, or make America front and center. Do not imagine, foolishly, in grave error, of working to make America a theocracy.

God established U.S. according to His will.

Do not mess with, tamper with what God established.

But, do not hesitate to Make America [Truly] Biblical Again. To Make America [Truly] Christian as much as possible. This being possible by each individual desiring such to be truly born again, being Bible literate, and growing in spiritual maturity and discernment., Understanding. Thinking critically. Using reason, rational thought — the tool that God gave in creating us, our brain, our heart, and our abilities to use these tools well and wisely. Compared to how we have been using them for such a long time.

When turning to God, turning to Jesus, turning to the Holy Spirit, repenting, and living out our lives according to the inerrant, infallible, unchangeable, eternal, living, and active word of God, we are blessed as individuals, as a nation.

Included here, below, are some related links that ought to truly be opened and read or watched and listened to before moving on.

Charlie Kirk’s legacy exposes a corrosive lie — and now it’s time to choose

 

Which side are you on? Only two options are on the table.

Charlie Kirk’s memorial service wasn’t just a remembrance — it was a revelation.

The memorial service was Christian nationalism in nascent, immature form. Not everyone who spoke was a Christian — and Christian nationalism does not require that. Yet what stood out most was that even people who do not share Charlie’s faith in Jesus showed open respect for the gospel. Everyone at the service was operating under the Christian gaze.

The truth is this: We cannot make America great again without making America Christian again, which in turn means making America biblical again.

MAGA needs MACA and MABA.

No neutral ground

For too long, Republicans spoke in vague religious clichés, paying lip service to an undefined faith in a nameless god. But Kirk’s memorial service was different. We saw speaker after speaker dare to define his faith in explicitly Christian terms.

This marks a seismic shift in a very short period of time. At the memorial, civil magistrates openly proclaimed the lordship of Christ as public truth. Media influencers called on us to repent of our particular sins, particularly. A new widow forgave her husband’s alleged killer, in accord with Jesus’ teaching, and civil magistrates promised to use their power to terrorize evildoers, in accord with Romans 13.

As the left grows more openly hostile to Christian belief, the right is becoming more consistently Christian.

The lines are more clearly drawn than ever before. Both the service itself and the events of the last two weeks illustrate this reality.

Perhaps the most important part of the memorial was that Charlie Kirk’s legacy was accurately portrayed. Charlie consistently emphasized the cultural, political, and civilizational impact of Christian faith. Unlike many pastors, he was willing to connect the dots, linking his Christian beliefs to every sphere of life: economics, marriage and family, immigration and nationhood, limited government, and more.

For him, the Christian faith was not a private set of religious ideas but a comprehensive system of truth that works in the real world. He challenged people (especially college students) with a biblical worldview, demonstrating that Christian faith offers coherent and compelling answers to both the pressing personal and political questions of the day.

That conviction came through in the memorial service, and for that I am grateful.

Third-wayism fails

It’s now becoming painfully obvious that the “third-wayism” of so many “Big Eva” leaders has been exposed as untenable.

Third-wayism treats both sides of the political spectrum as morally equivalent, with each side getting some things right and other things wrong. Third-wayism advocates attempt to remain neutral in order to avoid controversy and causing offense.

But in reality, there is no middle ground between progressive/secular and conservative/Christian political commitments. Those who want to avoid the culture war will still be drawn into it — just on the wrong side.

Third-wayists try to stay above the fray, but in doing so they actually compromise with evil. Because they insist on balancing left and right, if the left radicalizes and moves farther left, the third-wayist must also shift leftward in order to remain in the “middle.” In the process, third-way advocates end up justifying extreme progressive positions simply to maintain their supposed neutrality.

They are constantly chasing an Overton window that keeps moving leftward.

At its core, third-wayism attempts to treat progressivism as equally compatible with the Christian faith as conservatism. It’s true that there exists a kind of Christ-less conservatism that reduces faith to cultural nostalgia or civic religion. This kind of “bar-stool conservatism” should be critiqued and rejected. But in general, conservative positions overlap with biblical truth, whereas progressive positions stand as its direct antithesis.

Conservative, or traditional, Christian theology simply cannot mix with progressive politics any more than oil can mix with water.

Third-wayism is not humility or evangelistic wisdom. Rather, it’s a form of the fear of man disguised as humility. It seeks to ingratiate itself with the left — never to the right. It’s surrender rather than engagement, following rather than leading. It lacks substance and depth. It has no coherent political philosophy of its own. Its positions are dictated by how far to the left the progressive zeitgeist is willing to go. Third-wayists are easily manipulated precisely because of their refusal to take a firm stand. The third-wayist cannot draw a line in the sand.

The third-wayism dynamic, therefore, produces the familiar “coddle the left, punch the right” tendency, where progressive evils are gently excused while conservative shortcomings are harshly condemned. It assumes there is neutrality in the culture war when, in reality, there is none.

The third-wayist paradigm that has dominated the church in recent decades has allowed the culture to keep moving leftward without resistance. It never actually fights the battles that most need to be fought.

Christian faith, however, is not a private sentiment that can remain above political conflict.

Christ or chaos

The Christian faith is a fighting faith. It’s a civilization-building, culture-transforming faith. It claims to be public truth, rooted in hard-edged historical fact. It’s inherently political because it makes demands on rulers and the ruled alike. It includes an ethic that governs all of life, including political life.

When King David commanded the kings of the earth to “kiss the Son,” there was no third way. When the apostles proclaimed “Jesus is Lord,” they were not splitting the difference between competing political poles. When Jesus said all authority in heaven and earth belong to him, he left no middle ground. When Christians say that life in the womb must be protected, there is no third option; the baby will either live or be murdered. When Christians say men are men and women are women, there is no place for the third-wayist to run and hide from the truth.

The gospel does not call us to neutrality. It calls us to allegiance. Third-wayism, by pretending otherwise, only serves to mask compromise as virtue. Third-wayism is a denial of Jesus’ lordship.

Charlie’s legacy is at the heart of this moment. Charlie never took the third way. He took the Christian way. He refused to compromise with the madness and folly of the left. Charlie’s ministry and martyrdom are a sign that the time for fence-sitting is over.

The lines are drawn.

America is dividing into two camps: one that bows to Christ and one that rages against him. The future belongs to those who have the courage to say what Charlie Kirk said with his life — that Christian faith is not optional if we want a civilization worth living in. America is divided between those who embrace a consistently Christian vision of life and those who oppose it.

Which side are you on? Only two options are on the table — not three.

The memorial service revealed something profound: a clear contrast between two moral and spiritual visions of America and the need for courage in identifying with the one that aligns with biblical truth rather than cowardly compromise. Charlie embodied that courage, and his legacy continues to press the church and the nation toward a faith that is not abstract but applied — a faith that shapes culture, politics, economics, and civilization itself.

The memorial marked more than the remembrance of one man. It revealed a cultural realignment that Charlie helped bring about. His courage in connecting Christian faith to every dimension of life is the kind of legacy that points the way forward.
