Given the continued lobotomized lunacy of the NAPARC/CREC/SBS churches on the subject of Kinism (i.e. – racial realism, familialism, ethno-nationalism, White Christian Nationalism, etc.) I thought I would begin posting daily Kinist quotes (DKQ) in order to demonstrate how utterly braindead these “churches” are that are excommunicating, and deposing ministers over the Kinist issue as well as passing sundry language that is born of egalitarian, neo-Marxist thinking. We have established already at Iron Ink that the Church is now advocating for the very same thing that Marxists have advocated for throughout history. I have posted the Marxist quotes more than a few times. Marxists “intellectuals” would be very comfortable with the course that these denominations are pursuing. In point of fact these denominations would have to say on this point, if they were honest and consistent, that the Marxist were right when it comes to affirming a policy that pursues the elimination of nations and races.
I’ve already posted myriads of these quotes in a post here;
So Say We All … A Protest To Dr. Sproul 2.0’s Comments
I posted all these before two Anthology volumes were published that contain myriads upon myriads more quotes saying much the same thing that you will find in the above link. The volumes, “Who Is My Neighbor” and “A Survey of Racialism in Christian Sacred Tradition,” reveals that the current denominations are violating the principle of Vincent of Lerins which taught, that true Christian faith must be what has been believed “everywhere, always, and by all.” The Anabaptists, who were renown levelers, would be exceptions but the Reformed don’t consider them Christian.
As I have said before, so I say again now, this issue is to our time what the issue of the eternality of Christ was in the contest between Arius and Athanasius in the 4th century, what the contest was between Augustine and Pelagius was in the 5th century, and what the contest was between Luther and Eck was in the 16th century. If we get this issue of egalitarianism wrong here the Church of Jesus Christ will not get back on track until we finally do go back and get it right. The Reformed throughout the centuries have always fought against levelling and the erasure of God ordained distinctions because they knew that such levelling was both born of and led to levelling the distinction between God and man. Levelling the creature-creature distinctions can’t happen without levelling the Creator-creature distinction.
With all that said, I will, day by day, bring you at least one, but often a few, quotes daily demonstrating where the Church Fathers have been on this subject over the centuries. By doing so, you will see how out of step the contemporary Church (we use the word “church” only by way of courtesy) is.
“Each town should support its own poor and should not allow strange beggars to come in, WHATEVER THEY MAY CALL THEMSELVES, pilgrims or mendicant monks, (or immigrants – BLMc). Every town could feed its own poor; and if it were too small, the people in the neighboring villages should be called upon to contribute. As it is, they have to support knaves and vagabonds under the name of beggars….”
Martin Luther
Address to the Nobility of the German People
Now ask yourself, if Luther argued that strangers (whatever they may call themselves) should not be allowed into towns how much more is it the case that strangers (whatever they call themselves) should not be allowed into family lines via marriage?
Also, this quote shoots holes into the idea that we have to treat illegal immigrants in the same way as neighbor as we do deal with fellow Americans. One can argue that Christians must treat all men as neighbors but if one argues that way they must introduce the idea of gradation of neighbors. After all, if everyone is your neighbor, no one is your neighbor.
“What, there is to be no serf because Christ has redeemed us all? What is this? This means that Christian liberty is turned into liberty of the flesh? Did not Abraham and other patriarchs and prophets own serfs? Read what St. Paul has to say about servants, who at that time were all in bondage. Therefore this article is directly opposed to the Gospel and it is rapacious, for everyone who is a bondman to remove himself from his master. A bondman can very well be a Christian and have Christian freedom, just as a prisoner or a sick person can be a Christian, and yet is not free. This article proposes to free all men, and turn the spiritual kingdom of Christ into a worldly one, which is impossible. For a worldly kingdom cannot exist where there is no class distinction, where some are free, some are prisoners, some are masters, and some are vassals, etc. As St. Paul says in Gal. 3:28, that in Christ both master and vassal are one.”

Pretty sure that this counts as a quote that supports Southern slavery.

I am postmillennial in my eschatology.
Paedo-Calvinist Covenantal in my Christianity
Reformed in my Soteriology
Presuppositional in my apologetics
Familialist in my family theology
Agrarian in my regional community social order belief
Christianity creates culture and so Christendom in my national social order belief
Mythic-Poetic / Grammatical Historical in my Hermeneutic
Pre-modern, Medieval, & Feudal before Enlightenment, modernity, & postmodern
Reconstructionist / Theonomic in my Worldview

My passion is to write in such a way that the Lord Christ might be pleased. It is my hope that people will be challenged to reconsider what are considered the givens of the current culture.
Your biggest help to me dear reader will be to often remind me that God is Sovereign and that all that is, is because it pleases him.

“The Anabaptists, who were renown levelers, would be exceptions but the Reformed don’t consider them Christian.”
This is a VERY HARD saying. Unless you can prove that Anabaptists are not confessing true Christ, as real god and real man (sadly, I know that SOME of them are, or have been, guilty of Christological heresies), this judgment will fall back upon yourself. Just like similar anathemas fall back upon Papist bigots who deny that anyone outside their church could be a real Christian.
I hope you are not being so hard on them because of mere political disagreements, which for real Christians should be decidedly secondary matters.
Viisaus … Dude ….
I don’t write stuff off the cuff. I subscribe to the Belgic Confession of Faith. Article 18 of the Beglic Confession of faith. In Belgic Confession art. 18 the Reformed churches denounced Anabaptists as heretics for their doctrine of the “celestial flesh” of Christ.
Therefore we confess, against the heresy of the Anabaptists who deny that Christ assumed human flesh from his mother, that he “shared the very flesh and blood of children”;35 that he is “fruit of the loins of David” according to the flesh;36 “born of the seed of David” according to the flesh;37 “fruit of the womb of the virgin Mary”;38 “born of a woman”;39 “the seed of David”;40 “a shoot from the root of Jesse”;41 “the offspring of Judah,”42 having descended from the Jews according to the flesh; “from the seed of Abraham”—for he “assumed Abraham’s seed” and was “made like his brothers except for sin.”43 In this way he is truly our Immanuel—that is: “God with us.”44
OK, but how many modern Baptists would be subscribe to such ideas?
I do know that some obscure Mennonite sectarians still advocate such wicked ideas:

I don’t consider Baptists to be classical Anabaptists.
I consider them confused.
