VII. Conclusion

Christians need to recover an assertive will for their good and have the spirit and resolve to exclude what is bad. We should use social power to oppose those who threaten them and who attempt to subvert our faith or exploit its moral demands. That means opposing, suppressing, and excluding the very sort of people who run the American regime. A Christian society that is for itself will distrust atheists, decry blasphemy, correct any dishonoring of Christ, orient life around the Sabbath, frown on and suppress moral deviancy, and repudiate neo-Anabaptist attempts to subvert a durable Christian social order. A Christian nation that is true to itself will unashamedly and confidently assert Christian supremacy over the land.

Since cultural Christianity is simultaneously both Christian and cultural, its conservation depends essentially on continuity of peoplehood through generations. Christian culture, being particular, is an inheritance of a people; only they can conserve it. For this reason, you cannot separate this chapter from the analysis in chapter 3. The enduring connection of people and place conserves culture, including cultural Christianity. There is no universal “Gospel culture.” Christianity as expressed culturally is always particular and transmitted through natural generations.

However, the vestiges of cultural Christianity are disappearing in the West today. I offer my ideas for recovering it in the conclusion of this volume. Here, I’ll simply say that it requires a fiercely resolute will. A people must have spirit, self-affirmation, self-regard, and confidence in themselves. They must, in other words, become the opposite of what Western Christianity has become. The spirit to live says, “This is ours for our good,” and it drives a people to endure the sacrifices to keep it.
