Nationalism over Holiness

I am as great a patriot for this country as anyone.  I am even still a patriot for the great Confederate States of America.  When we began over 200 years ago, what were the ideals and morality of this country?  Where are we now?

Psalms 119
9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed [thereto] according to thy word.
10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.
11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
12 Blessed [art] thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.
13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.
14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as [much as] in all riches.
15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.
These are the words we should be celebrating but only if this is our desire.
We as a nation started great, but now look where we are.
This time of year we will celebrate our country, but what are we now celebrating.
We have become very immoral yet in our churches we will talk of  all our virtues.
In a few weeks we will talk about how we need to pray for leaders and of revival needed in this land.
Somehow we will raise the national flag over and higher than the banner of Christ.
We will accept immorality and ignore Holiness.

As a Christian, should not the banner of Christ be flown higher than any national banner?
Allen
