Ok, say a person has no church affiliation, but walks the path of Jesus, does that guy make the cut to heaven? The condition is true faith, but not just mental assent. Faith that results in true regeneration of the soul. As all the better reformers asserted by authority of the Apostle Paul... He that believes is justified. If you believe strictly one of Faith, or do you have good evidence supporting the truth of you proposition? Precise and specific fulfilled prophecies, primarily in Isaiah concerning the coming Messiah, given over 700 years in advance. Fulfilled in Christ.

Whitefield... Great Awakening.. enabled unity in the colonies need for our revolution to succeed. Wesleys influence in England avoided a French Revolution style meltdown. So am I understanding your correctly, the French were the wrong kind of Christians, and that's why they had the French Revolution?

Yes, if the faith is true, real and created in the heart by Grace and the Holy Spirit. The Puritans talked about evidences of true regeneration.

Prior to the French Revolution the Catholics murdered 70 thousand Protestants on St Bartholomews day. Slit their throats by the thousands. The Huguenots fled to the new world.

The St Barts day massacre was like 250 year before the French Revolution. The 15th and 16th centuries had all of Europe embroiled in some form of religious war and persecution.

Yes, but it made France distinctly different from our colonies. We were 99 percent PROTESTANT, at the time if our revolution. I would think France was nearly devoid of Protestants in 1802

There were still Huegenot enclaves in France. And still are today.
I am a Huegenot descendant. My family went to Calvinist Scotland.

I make no claim to a perfect knowledge, but as I u understand it in almost every case the Catholics were the violent aggressors in Europe, especially in the Netherlands... the Spanish Fury...

Prior to the French Revolution the Catholics murdered 70 thousand Protestants on St Bartholomews day. Slit their throats by the thousands. The Huguenots fled to the new world. Modern estimates put that number as low as 5k, and no higher than 30k. Eight million dead during the 30 years war, and far from all the atrocities of that war were committed by Catholics.

There are more than a few pro white folks who have totally repudiated Christianity in favor of ancient European paganism coupled with tribalism.
In my mind...
Fools beyond belief going down a dead end road of total futility What are “pro white folks” and why do they matter more than anyone else?

Ever read Göethe’s play "Egmont"? Set in the Spanish Netherlands. Beethoven wrote an overture for the play. Remember a particular line from the play. “It is the plan that all common men should be armed”.

The Norse gods were christian. The vikings were christian, Many of the old stories are christian. The Sumatrans and Babylonians were christian. God is God. But God is not Allah. Allah is a false god.

Considering the islamic invasion of Scandinavia and the rest of the world at present, I doubt very much Norse religion is going to cramp your style Mr. White. Bigger fish to fry if you look around.

Scandinavia needs to reconnect with their Lutheran roots. Their minds are a globby mess of weakness , false guilt and white self loathing. True faith and true Grace makes men wise and brave and clear minded.

Do you adhere to Wesley’s doctrine of Christian perfection? Int the context of Ephesians 3, Paul's prayer... yes. But not the straw man
