We advocate for representative democracy, limited government, States Rights, Christian charity, the Three C’s [Christianity, Culture, and Capitalism], and the Holy Bible as a blueprint for a lawful society.
Where does it say liberal Christians cannot be in government?

Well ah . . . if you believe in Marjorie that the Republican Party should be a 'Christian Republican Party and the rest of the extreme baggage she carries including the conspiracies then you have known for a long time you were and are a Christian Nationalist.
One thing that's clear --- you really are a ChickenLittle kinda guy.

And, yes, I have seen the source myself.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Yes, I contest the citation as simplistic grossly incomplete based on the post I posted with a citation which you have failed to respond to.
What Is Christian Nationalism?
Christian nationalism is the belief that the American nation is defined by Christianity, and that the government should take active steps to keep it that way. Popularly, Christian nationalists assert that America is and must remain a “Christian nation”—not merely as an observation about American history, but as a prescriptive program for what America must continue to be in the future. Scholars like Samuel Huntington have made a similar argument: that America is defined by its “Anglo-Protestant” past and that we will lose our identity and our freedom if we do not preserve our cultural inheritance.
Christian nationalists do not reject the First Amendment and do not advocate for theocracy, but they do believe that Christianity should enjoy a privileged position in the public square. The term “Christian nationalism,” is relatively new, and its advocates generally do not use it of themselves, but it accurately describes American nationalists who believe American identity is inextricable from Christianity.
Is Christianity Today lying when they say that Christian Nationalists do not advocate for a theorcracy?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

It's best to focus upon what Bahai has written, I think.
Address this and not dodge an important issue in this thread.
Remember the opening post in another thread when seer enthusiastically applauded Muslim for supporting Christian efforts to oppose the LGBT community?!?!?!?!?!
You can't hide behind Islam and Christianity....... you can't.
Well, at least you are including the T in LGBT now, so you've learned something about Bahai, I guess.
