Are You Nationalistic?

If we’re trying to be nationalistic,we must first find out where our citizenship belongs:“For our conversation is in heaven…”-Philippians3:20(KJV), the word CONVERSATION here is translated as CITIZENSHIP (refer to New King James Version). Therefore, what do we do to be nationalistic? To obey,to love our country, to serve our leader, and to do good deeds in the development of the country, as well as deeds that will make our leader happy.Right, isn’t it?

Think of the Philippines as Heaven, think of the Law in our Country as the TEN COMMANDMENTS(Exodus 20:3-17),think of your love to the Philippines as your love to Heaven, think of our President as God, think of the good deeds as the fruit of the holy spirit(Galatians5:22-23). If we’ll just OBEY everything God will say, then we’ll be sure to be part of the few chosen people who’ll find the narrow way (Matthew 7:14) and be able to step in the New Jerusalem (Revelation 3:12) of the world hereafter. Just like our forefathers who followed Rizal’s advice, they’ve prospered, right?Their principles were considered as the pioneering quotes of our success. Thus, if we’ll just be obedient to God, then we’ll obtain liberty, true happiness and total fulfillment. Freedom from the Spaniards is freedom from sin. To stay illiterate is to remain Carnal, but to be educated is to transform into Spiritual.
