We the people are not God.

We the people are commanded to submit to Christ as King in practice.

We the people are not special or "exceptional" in any way that gives us a free pass to ignore, dismiss or reject Christ as King in practice.

We the people are commanded to repent of our past and present rebellion against Christ the King.

We the people are commanded to allow no false god to be openly worshiped in our land.

We the people are commanded to educate our children with Jesus Christ as the explicit core, source and object of the pursuit of knowledge.

We the people are commanded to discern and apply the distinct God-defined responsibilities and limitations of the God-ordained institutions of Family, Church and State.

We the people are commanded to learn and obey all that Christ the King has revealed of His Nature in His Word.

We the people are commanded to take every political, economic, educational, artistic, technological, cultural and civilizational thought captive to Christ.

We the people are commanded to make disciples of all nations, teaching everyone to love and obey Christ as King in practice.

We the people can do none of these things apart from the grace of God.

We the people have been commanded and equipped by God to accomplish all of these otherwise impossible things through His Gospel-fueled Great Commission, secured and empowered by the blood of Christ the King, who will see His people through to victory:

And Jesus came and said to them,All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20 (emphasis added)
