Expect greatness. Emphasis on cultivating wisdom, strength, beauty, health and overcoming. |
Elevates mediocrity.
"The meek shall inherit the Earth" (Matthew 5:3-5)
"God chose the foolish things of the
world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the
strong. God chose the lowly things of this world, the despised things, and
the things that are not, to nullify the things that are, so that no one may
boast before him."
(1 Corinthians, 20 and 26-29.)

"If anyone comes to me and does not
hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers, sisters, and even their
own life, such a person cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:26.)

Man is a sinner by nature. (Psalm 51:5) (Romans 5:12) (1 John 1:8) (Confiteor).

Emphasis on honor and pride.

Honor and pride are rejected in favor of mercy, humility and guilt. Honor and pride cannot exist because everyone is sinner. |
There is no fear to the Gods. You are not their slave. |
You have to fear god and give blind submission to him. You are a slave of Christ. (Ephesians 6:6) |
Inherently Ethno-Nationalist, Identitarian and Racial-Realist. Paganism is the religion/worldview of the Folk. Race is the only bond. |
Inherently Internationalist, Globalist, Universalist and Egalitarian. "All we are equal in Christ". (Galatians 3:28.) regardless race. Faith is the only bond. All who are of the Christian faith, be they Black, Asian or White, are better and more valuable to it than a White who is not a Christian. |
Vitalistic. In harmony with Life and Nature. Nature is sacred. Sexuality and instincts are appreciated as divine gifts. |
Nihilistic. In opposition to Life and Nature (Philippians 3:8) (1 John 2:15). You are given the "true life" only after death. Sexuality and instincts are despised as "earthy and mundane". |
The body and the spirit; material world and spiritual world are complementary and closely united as two faces of the
same thing.

The body and the spirit; material world and spiritual world are separated, mutually exclusive and opposed.

evil" (Matthew 5:38-42),

Tends to division among Europeans. "Other Christians, who don’t follow the same kind of Christianity as I do, are wrong and heretical". |
