There isn't a nation (or culture) on earth, now or in the past, that embodies the Kingdom of God. They all fall short, far short. Why? Because the Kingdom of God is run on a servanthood basis. It was created by the supreme act of self-sacrifice in history, Jesus' death on the cross, that established the Kingdom of God, and only moves forward when his followers imitate him and serve others. Is America a Christian nation? No, there is no such thing. No nation lives by the moral code of the New Covenant, no nation makes its decisions based upon eternity. The Kingdom of God is different, by design, thanks be to God.
