Under Whose banner will we align?

Excerpts from Mushroom, writing at Fungle Jungle:

...Secularism is supreme in the West -- for now, though it is threatened by the invading forces of Islam. Muslims succeed by playing the victim and demanding tolerance even as they demand submission to their intolerance. The secularist grasps neither the threat nor the appeal of Islamic fanaticism, having been trained to see Christianity as the great religious evil.

...Protestant Evangelicals have been embracing secularism for at least the last thirty years. When I became involved with fundamentalist Christians in the mid-80s, many still clung to their origins. I saw that attitude slip away as they became enamored of the mega-church, of having community influence, of attracting young families by means of musical styles, changes in format, and technology.

Now we have Pope Francis heading the Catholic Church while vangelicals are led by those who do not understand the threat of one-worlders and their antichrist, Tower of Babel religion.

Yet Hezekiah's declaration remains true. The enemy advances relentlessly against us. We are outnumbered and poorly prepared in a physical sense; nevertheless, God reigns. He will be victorious, and all we need to do is get on His side. The preparation we need is to pray and seek Him, asking not that He align Himself with us and our causes but that we be allowed to align with Him under the banner of Christ.
