All Material Blessings and Freedoms American Christians Enjoy Are The Result of Military Warfare.

[Benson]

1.) God uses the pursuits of Mankind as fodder for his Divine Agenda. America has constantly prepared for and pursued military superiority to gain its status. God has permitted its success, yet will soon judge it for horrific sin.

2.) There are innumerable domestic spin offs Christians possess from successful Military technology.

3.) The superiority of the U.S. dollar to finance American churches and missionary outreach is a result of American Military Imperialism.

4.) Both the truly nutritional food options as well as the option for obesity and diet related illness Christians enjoy is from Military presence giving safety to our food supply chains around the World.

5.) The very soil upon which sit the homes and businesses of Christian Americans was taken by Military force from whoever previously controlled it. Native Americans, French, Mexicans, Canadians, whoever was previously claiming it.

6.) The oil, minerals, forests, water, ocean resources, and harvested materials which are used to domestically provide whatever we purchase and consume come to us from the history of Military conquest.

7.) American oceanic freedom for commerce is allowed by Naval Superiority.

8.) American Military superiority allows Christian American missionaries to show up overseas, set up shop, make their pronouncements, and strut their faith as the Only Show in Town for the amazement of the locals. Christian American missionaries do not need to suffer in other countries like the impoverished, beaten, homeless, rejected First Century missionaries in The New Testament. Americans rarely live like the locals.

8.) God did not supernaturally defeat the British army in the Revolutionary War, He allowed the Colonists to kill them. He did not want the Christian Colonists to submit to and pray for the King, George.

The irony of all this is that the concept of Military superiority as a necessary component of Patriotism, as is largely held by American Christians, has no part in God's Kingdom. Patriotism us neither commanded nor demonstrated in Scripture. In fact, it is forbidden.
