QUESTION: would you consider doing this?

There is a Drive under way to get a lot of Christians to move to south Carolina to become a New country. The Idea that suceeding from the USA may be the only option for American Christians to openly practice their faith.

would you ever consider this if things ever got really bad ?





here is the website http://christianexodus.org/

I wonder what the people of South Carolina think about this? LOL!

I think some people have too much time on their hands, myself.

And South Carolina is the best state they could pick to move to?? Must be the Myrtle Beach attraction.....LOL!

Besides, don't they know that a hurricane will end up wiping them out and everyone will say it was the judgment of God.

If Christians would simply vote in their own states, and use thought process BEFORE they enter the poll, this exodus would be not needed.

I think the NORTH Carolina job market much better than South....

Um--- NO.

~~~~~
From their site:

Statement of Faith
ChristianExodus.org is a non-denominational Christian organization committed to the following essential doctrines:

The Trinity
The Full Deity and Humanity of Jesus Christ
The Human Race is Spiritually Lost
The Substitutionary Atonement and Bodily Resurrection of Christ
Salvation by Faith Alone in Christ Alone
The Physical Return of Christ
The Authority and Inerrancy of Scripture
Our Statement of Faith includes only those truths upon which Christians agree. It concerns the Person and Work of Jesus Christ (the Gospel) as revealed in Scripture. It is the faith once delivered to the saints (Jude 3, Ephesians 4:5), which distinguishes believers from non-believers. There are many other precious truths taught in the Bible over which godly men have differed in understanding. Therefore, this is a statement of beliefs that are considered to be necessary and sufficient to lay the foundation for our mutual support of each other. Additionally, this Statement of Faith only pertains to ChristianExodus.org members and is not intended to serve as a requirement for citizenship under a constitutional government.

The Trinity:

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Who are co-equal in their essential nature, attributes, and perfection; and each of whom is to be honored and worshiped as God. (Genesis 1:1-3; Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:22; John 4:24, 5:23, 10:30, 14:9; Acts 5:3-4; II Corinthians 13:14; Hebrews 1:1-3)



The Full Deity and Humanity of Christ:

Jesus Christ is God the Son, the promised Messiah, conceived in the flesh by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, true God and true man, without sin, and the only mediator between God and Man. (Isaiah 7:14, 9:6-7; Matthew 1:18-25; Mark 14:61-62; John 1:1-3, 14, 29, 5:18, 8:58, 10:30; II Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 2:5-11; Colossians 1:15-19; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 1:2-11, 2:14-15; I John 5:20)



The Human Race is Spiritually Lost:

We believe God created humans, both male and female, in His perfect image. Through their moral fall in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve plunged themselves and the entire human race into sin, which is rebellion against God and the moral transgression of His holy character and righteous standard. As the head of all humanity, Adam incurred death, which is separation from God, upon himself and all his posterity in the human race. Thus, all humans are born sinners by nature and deed and incurring guilt before a holy God. (Gen.1:26-31; 3; Romans 3:10-18; 5:12-21; Eph. 2:1-3)

The Substitutionary Atonement and Bodily Resurrection of Christ:

We believe Jesus lived a perfect, sinless life, revealing God to sinful humanity. Through His death on the cross, He paid for sin, completely satisfied the righteous wrath of God against sin, and provided redemption and forgiveness for all who believe. After His death, Jesus Christ arose in a physical body from the dead, was seen by many during a period of forty days, and then ascended into Heaven where He is seated at the right hand of God as our Advocate and High Priest, from which place He will some day return to establish His Kingdom on earth. (Isaiah 53:5-6; Luke 24:36-43; John 1:17, 3:16, 20:25-28; Acts 1:6-11; Romans 3:21-26; I Corinthians 15:3-8, 20-23; Galatians 3:13; Colossians 1:13-14; I Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:13; I Peter 1:18-19, 2:24; I John 2:1-2; Revelation 20:6)

Salvation by Faith Alone in Christ Alone:

Eternal salvation from sin, death and hell is the free gift of God's grace, and is based solely upon man's personal faith and belief in Jesus Christ. He voluntarily died as a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins and arose bodily from the dead, thus guaranteeing our own resurrection to eternal life. (John 1:11-13, 3:16, 5:24, 10:28-30, 14:6; Acts 4:12; Acts 16:31; Romans 3:23-26, 5:8, 6:23, 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-10; Titus 3:5; Hebrews 7:24-25; 1 Peter 1:18-19, 1 John 5:11-13)

The Physical Return of Christ:

Jesus Christ at His second coming will victoriously descend from heaven to earth to consummate His judgment against Satan, his demonic hosts, and unbelieving humanity, resulting in their eternal separation from God. Moreover, God will lift the curse which now rests upon the whole creation, and eternally dwell among His people in the new heavens and new earth. (Matthew 24; 25; Romans 8:19-23; 1 Corinthians 15; Revelation 19:11-21)

The Authority and Inerrancy of Scripture

The Holy Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of God, existing as His perfect revelation of absolute truth in all matters in the original manuscripts penned by the biblical authors under the superintending guidance of the Holy Spirit. (John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16, 17; 2 Peter 1:20, 21)
