More on the PCA Report on Christian Nationalism …. and an Observation on the Politics of the PCA

Westminster Larger Catechism

Q. 108. What are the duties required in the second commandment?

A. The duties required in the second commandment are, the receiving, observing, and keeping pure and entire, all such religious worship and ordinances as God hath instituted in his Word;518 particularly prayer and thanksgiving in the name of Christ;519 the reading, preaching, and hearing of the Word;520 the administration and receiving of the sacraments;521 church government and discipline;522 the ministry and maintenance thereof;523 religious fasting;524 swearing by the name of God;525 and vowing unto him;526 AS ALSO THE DISAPPROVING, DETESTING, OPPOSING ALL FALSE WORSHIP; 527 AND, ACCORDING TO EACH ONE’S ONE PLACE AND CALLING REMOVING IT AND ALL MONUMENTS OF IDOLATRY.528

WCF 23.3 says the magistrate has a duty to:

“protect the person and good name of all their people” and that no person “be suffered, either upon pretense of religion or of infidelity, to offer in dignity, violence, abuse, or injury to any other person whatsoever… and to take order, but all religious and ecclesiastical assemblies be held without molestation or disturbance”

According to the #PCA CN report WCF 23-3, means that the magistrates “posture toward false religion…does not extend to… exclusion from public office.” p. 2709, line 22.

It is obvious that the PCA CN report’s interpretation of WCF 23.3 is contrary to the original intent, especially when read in light of WLC Q. 108, capitalized section above. Indeed, quite to the contrary of what the PCA CN report’s interpretation of WCF 23-3 is it is obvious that prohibiting public office to non-Christians would be a way the Christian magistrate obeys WLC 108. It seems rather obvious that a Christian people would not desire to be ruled by non-Christians and so would not allow for such an eventuality.

Now for the observation touching the political lay of the land in the PCA,

It seems the politics of the PCA right now finds the R2K “confessionalists” willing to get in bed with the Kellerite Lib-tards to the end of ridding themselves of the 2K (Wolfean) confessionalists and the rump theonomic confessionalists. Those who desire “Big Tent” Presbyterianism seem to hav the whip hand.

The results of this will be, if successful, the driving out of the 2K and theonomists but only at the price of giving the Kellerites the upper hand guaranteeing the eventual PCUSAing of the PCA. The PCA has already been on this trajectory and nothing that is happening at this General Assembly is promissory of that being altered.

The faithful that are now in the PCA will have to do what their Fathers did in 1973 when they departed the PCUS.

“We further deny the right of the Christian magistrate to engage in persecution, suppression, or the disenfranchisement of citizens on the basis of religion (see the language of WCF 23-3 quoted above).”

Partial Report of the PCA Ad-Interim Committee on Christian Nationalism

1.) Forbidding the Christian magistrate to engage in persecution suggests that it would be wrong for the Christian magistrate to visit consequences upon those who break laws against Mormons practicing polygamy, against Hindus practicing widow burning (Sati), against Muslims practicing honor killings of faithless daughters, against Dearborne Mich, Muslim magistrates for implementing and collecting the Jizya tax upon Christians in Dearborne.

2.) Forbidding the Christian magistrate from suppression would mean that the Christian magistrate could not send illegal immigrants back to their country of origin if they claimed religious exemption since that would definitely be a suppression.

“We affirm that in God’s providence, liberal political orders—of the kind that have shaped America—have secured genuine goods, including protections for religious liberty, limitations on arbitrary political power, recognition of human dignity, and the expansion of certain civil and political rights. Christians should not embrace reactionary alternatives that sacrifice justice, liberty, or charity.”

Partial Report of the PCA Ad-Interim Committee on Christian Nationalism

Yes, the protection of religious liberty has given us Mosques in Dearborne, Mich., incredible fraud in Somali Minneapolis, Roaming Holy Cattle in Frisco Texas, and United Nations citizenry in Lewiston-Auburn Me. to name only a few results of the protection of religious liberty.

Limitations on political power? Like covering up the Epstein files? Like committing to war without Congressional approval?

Recognition of human dignity? Like 1 million aborted babies every year since 1973?

Expansion of civil and political rights? Like the Marxist unconstitutional civil rights legislation?

These guy are wearing blinders.

“Nevertheless, we deny that the ordo amoris provides a warrant for the preferential treatment of one’s own ethnic group ahead of any other. We further deny the assumption that our natural preferences are the same a rightly ordered loves, or that race or ethnicity may, in any way, function as a moral norm directing or defining love for neighbor.”

Partial Report of the PCA Ad-Interim Committee on Christian Nationalism

1.) Translation – The ordo amoris is to be embraced except when we say it is not be embraced.

2.) Of course this is only true for White people. Everyone except white people can give preferential treatment to their own ethnic people group. This was proven by Irwyn Ince’s whole 2025 PCA GA where a dinner and fellowship gathering was advertised specifically for “Black worshipers.”

3.) The ordo amoris applies to Fathers providing for their family but it does not apply on a scale beyond that. If heads of household have extra money to help people the ordo amoris cannot be a tool used to decide who to help.

4.) I wonder how they square this with Paul’s love for his own people stated in Romans 9:1-3?

5.) That last sentence in bold type could only be written by egalitarians. The gist of it is that all peoples must be treated equally. We are not allowed, per the PCA, to prioritize our people group. At least whites aren’t allowed to do that.

This is all to valorize the replacement of white people. This is to the end of making sure that your natural in group always remains an out group.

Example of R2K Thinking in the Rank and File Clergy

“Should Pastors spend their time trying to develop a textbook level theory of Reformed political theory that better matches the context of the 16th-17th centuries, or should they disciple their people to live faithfully as exiles in our respective Babylons?”

Rev. Daniel F. Wells
PCA Sycophant

1.) This is amil eschatology. Note everyone is living in Babylon. There is no victory. It is Babylon always all the time.

2.) This is R2K theology. The whole “exile” language is a central theme in R2K surrender theology. The Gates of hell always prevail w/ R2K.

3.) Should Pastors learn their craft in learning to apply Christian theology to politics. R2K always says “NO.” This is because for R2K theology is completely cordoned off from politics, economic, family life, sociology, history, education, etc.

This man should NOT be in the pulpit, just as no R2K fanboy should be in the pulpit. The presence of R2K fanboys in the pulpit guarantees the death of the West since for R2K the world is not our home, we’re just a passing through.

James Madison on Legal Establishment of Christianity … McAtee on Legal Establishment of Religious Liberty

“During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What have been its fruits? More or less in all places, pride and indolence in the Clergy, ignorance and servility in the laity, in both, superstition, bigotry and persecution.”

— James Madison, 1784

“During 250 years of American Independence religious liberty has been on trial. What have been its fruits? More or less in all places, the continued dumbing down of America, the ever increasing rise of sexual perversion, the embrace of explicit polytheism, a clergy that is more akin to Franz Boas than to John Calvin, and most recently the growing persecution of Biblical Christians.

— Rev. Bret L. McAtee, 2026

Go tell Madison he had his head up his southern most bodily aperture.

McAtee Repudiates Dr. Jeffrey Stivason’s Article on “A Word to Kinists” VI

“Put plainly, the man (Timothy) of mixed heritage humbled himself for the sake of those who prized ethnic purity. The so-called “interracial” man did not recoil from racial exclusivists; he moved toward them in costly love, seeking not to preserve boundaries, but to bring them into the fullness of the gospel.”

Jeffrey Stivason

A Word to Kinists?

No, Timothy humbled himself for the sake of those who were without God and without hope. The fact that Jews prized ethnic purity was ancillary to that. By Stivason’s logic, Titus, who was not circumcised, did not desire to bring the Jews into the fullness of the gospel.

When we look at all the evidence, it’s clear that Titus’ case was all about defending the freedom Christians find in Christ, whilst in Timothy’s case, it was all about utilising that same freedom to win more souls for Christ. It was freedom that led Paul not to allow Titus to be circumcised, and it was freedom that led Paul to allow Timothy to be circumcised, 1 Corinthians 10:23-24. Because this is true, we should not force men to become Alienists anymore than Titus was forced to become circumcised.

Finally, using Stivason’s own logic, we might ask doesn’t Stivason love non Christian Kinists enough to move toward them in costly love, seeking to preserve boundaries, and so bring them into the fullness of the gospel?” If Timothy could be circumcised for the sake of winning Jews to Christ, can’t Stivason embrace Kinism for the sake of winning Kinists to Christ?

Stivason writes,

“There is a vital lesson here for us. When the church fixes its gaze on Christ—even in a case like Timothy’s circumcision, which served to set Christ before those still living in the shadows—the result is strengthening, unity, and growth. But when the church turns its attention to skin color or ethnic distinctions, it shifts from Christ-centeredness to man-centeredness, and, in doing so, it becomes weak.

This is not a small or secondary matter. If left unchecked, such a focus does not merely distract—it can eclipse the gospel itself. And where the gospel is eclipsed, love will not long remain. Brothers and sisters, we must guard against anything that would displace Christ at the center. Let us be vigilant, then, to keep our eyes fixed on Him alone, for only there do we find the power that builds up the church and binds us together in true gospel love.”

Jeffrey Stivason

A Word to Kinists

Bret responds

1.) It is interesting here that Stivason is advancing an argument that would, in effect suggest, that the Genesis 11 project of Babel is only wrong if it is not a “Christian tower of Babel.” All colors bleeding into one is only evil when the Marxists / egalitarians attempt it. All colors bleeding into one is something God approves of as long as the New World Babel Order is Christian.

2.) Kinists teach “All of Christ for all the nations.” How in the world is that man-centered over Christ centered? This is more 9th commandment violation coming from Stivason.

3.) I see little evidence of the Church being strengthened, unified, and growing in light of the embrace of Stivason’s antiChrist Alienism. Indeed, what I see is the Irwyn Ince type of embarrassments that recently plagued the PCA. The Church in the West is more weak than it has been in generations. A quick glance at the decline in Church attendance witnesses that truth.

4.) Stivason’s last paragraph explains why Kinists oppose the Alienism of NAPARC. This debate is indeed not a small and secondary matter. If the Alienism in NAPARC wins out the Gospel of Jesus Christ and all of Biblical Christianity will return to the Babylonian captivity that Luther lamented over.

5.) Stivason and his Alienist cohorts are giving us a Christianity that is diametrically opposed to the Christianity found in Scripture. May God grant them repentance and the joy of knowing the Lord Christ who is and will be worshiped by people in every tribe, tongue and nation in their tribes tongues and nations.
