Christian Nationalism is a movement of church goers who try to elect politicians who will vote and make laws in USA government according to the Bible.
So what's wrong with that?
They are trying to make the world into the church without being born again, leaving out Jesus Christ.
They are trying to force the world to following rules of God without being of God.
The movement is being led by Dallas Theological Seminary and two billionaire oil men in Texas.
They select men and women and examine them to see if they fit Bible doctrines and if so they will sponsor (finance) these candidates in various political offices, funding their political campaign. As it is time to vote, they make "suggestions" as to what laws to pass.
Their churches are called "Bible Church".
If you have not heard of this political movement, you probably will.
It is very subtle and may seem right. But it does not fit God's way of dealing with the world as presented in the Bible.

I Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
I John 5:18-19 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. 19 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
God gives those who are born again a new heart and a new Spirit. Only God can do this and cause us to be godly. God changes us from within and makes us different from the world because God gives us HIS heart on the matter and HIS Holy Spirit so we can think as God thinks about the things God calls "sins".
Ezekiel 36 (God says)
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put MY spirit within you, and cause you to walk in MY statutes, and ye shall keep MY judgments, and do them.

The Prohibition Laws of 1920 to 1933 in USA are an example of trying to legislate sin. They tried to stop drunkenness by prohibiting the sale of alcohol in USA.
God did not prohibit drinking of alcohol but prohibited drunkenness.
Paul told the evangelist Timothy the following:
God says in the Bible:
The control from God comes from that new heart and new spirit which God gives us when we are born again.
You cannot legislate sins.
Galatians 5
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
(When we follow the Spirit of God we end up fulfilling the law but from the heart God has given us.)

John 18:26 Jesus said: "MY kingdom is not of this world."
Hebrews 11:13-16 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for HE hath prepared for them a city.
Colossians 3:1-4 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with HIM in glory.

2 Corinthians 6
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be MY people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Pray for those in authority:
1 Timothy 2
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.
If you vote and take part in politics you will not live in peace. You will think one party is better than the other. We keep ourselves in peace, trusting in God, and we pray for that person who is ruler.
We do not hate the other party. We recognize politics as a part of the world. We do not fight and strive with them. Just pray for the person who has been elected. (I Tim. 2:1-3)

God will destroy this present heaven and earth when Jesus returns.
2 Peter 3
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.
(If you learn to hate the other political party you may end up destroying yourself. This world will never be righteous. In the end God will destroy this world. Keep yourself in peace by trusting God and through prayer over those things that trouble you. Don't set your affection on this world for it is destined by God to destruction.)

When Jesus returns, HE will awaken the dead in Christ and HE will cause the elect of God who are still alive on this earth to rise to meet HIM in the air and we will all be taken to the new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness.
I Thessalonians 4:15-17 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (go before) them which are asleep (dead).
16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Matthew 29:31 Jesus says: And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
All who belong to God will rise to meet Jesus in the air and we will then be taken to the new heaven and new earth and this present heaven and earth will then be destroyed by God by fire.
Revelation 21
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.
