Ephesians 5:11

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

I KNOW SOME PEOPLE IN A CERTAIN CHRISTIAN RELIGION THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED THAT REFUSE TO ASSOCIATE WITH "UNBELIEVERS"

SO WHY NOT JUST GO AWAY AND LEAVE US ALONE

We did. We named it the United States of America. I guess all good things come to an end though.

WE DID, GOD Raised up America for HIS Kids, so that GOD could Go ye into All the World and Preach the Good News of Jesus.(Children of GOD are a "Nation" within a "Nation")
The "unfruitful Works of Darkness" is the Stuff satan (darkness) Throws Out and We go for sometimes.

Everybody Needs to "have no Fellowship with the Unfruitful Works of Darkness---it can Hurt People).

The UN tried that theory once. In 1948 a small strip of land was given to a religios group called the Jews. This nation became known as Israel. Fast Forward to present day and almost the whole middle east is wanting to nuke Israel. The same thing would and did happen with Christians. The land is called America and now all but Israel hates us.

The Netherlands isn't "finished" of radical Muslims. it relatively is have been given a big Muslim minority, a tiny fraction of that are hate-mongers and radicals. it relatively is substantial to no longer enable commonplace press distort the certainty. have faith it or no longer the Netherlands additionally has greater than a number of Protestant Evangelical varieties who're further radical. (as i chanced directly to my marvel) fortunately it has a good government committed to liberalism and such themes does no longer difficulty you. I had a Dutch lady pal some years back (i'm from the united kingdom) and got here to truly like the situation. the united kingdom is o.k. to stay in. it relatively is my residing house so i'm biased in the direction of liking it. regardless of if it relatively is in lots of cases stuffed with impolite, busy jobsworths, loopy community government and a central authority with a severe @rse-elbow id situation. on the upside although is it has between the worldwide's maximum dynamic and traditionally deep cultures. faith is unquestionably a loss of life tension right here yet like usa, you will locate extremes of each and every thing while you're finding for it. individually although, i might flow to Sweden or Norway. no longer because of the religious subject, yet because of the fact they're international places who basically get all of it spectacular. Liberal centrist governments with a great concentration on own freedom married with effective structures of welfare and social justice. The environment is spectacular, the all of us is friendly and that they even have the northern lights!

Because of what some will do, does make it that True Christians is to blame. The subject you mention about not having company With Unbelievers, they have taken that out of content, I have worked with unbelievers, The Bible is talking about that a True Believeing Christian Not to go to a Church that is not preaching the truth, And as far as us making our own Country, why should we do that, You will just follow us

We did and came to this land seeking religious freedom. Read abou hose that came over in the Mayflower. It is called (I think) American History. Read the founding documents of this country and see what they say. That to can be found in American History.

This country was founded on Christian beliefs. I realize that hurts some peoples feeling but facts are facts. When you say why don't you go and start your own country, well we did.

Because this country was founded on Christian principals. Nonbelievers (not "unbelievers") came here--aside from the Native Americans that were already here--so technically Christians could be ask YOU that question. Emphasis on "could be." But we're not.

Christians started this country in the first place, so why don't YOU get out of here and leave us alone. You have corrupted our society with pornography sites. You have disgraced the name of God.
We commited the greatest sin, but you made it more lustful. Such beautiful women, cast into the adult entertainment world. How could you?

As many others have said, "we did" its called the USA. Let me welcome you.

But regarding the real underlying question of association, the Bible says that we are to be in the world but not of it. In other words we should be an influence to the world that draws others to Christ and in order to do this we must be different (showing God's love) yet still there.

I don't want to move, how can I tell others about Jesus if I am living in a country of all Christians. Matthew 28 says to go into all nations and make disciples of men, not to go into a country all of our own.
