The same way the USGov in America is in no way a “christian” government. Christianity advocates peace in all things. It also does not recognize state authority. A coercive state endlessly selling weapons and starting wars is exactly opposite the teachings of Christ Jesus.

100% agree with you, I don't think there are any governments today taking their stated religion seriously, it's very sad

Same was true under pre 1989 commie regime in Eastern Europe. Christians were persecuted, as the state religion was authoritarianism.
I am starting to see parallels in 21st century so-called western world.

The western states were never any better when it came to foreign wars.
The pattern I see is the state.
More State = more bad
Less State = less bad
"your god has all these laws. i know them. i studied them. you're supposed to teach his laws, but you break them to teach them. so, the laws means nothing to you. which means... your god doesn't exist, and you know it."
Christ is the living God, who sacrificed himself for our sins- to intercede for us to the Father.
God’s law is the natural law-
Non-aggression, Peace, Justice.
The more we follow the law the better our world will be. We will always fail however, and the earth will be renewed at the end of time.
If you admit anything about the world it is that you are not God, and that there is a natural law that humans should follow. The one who created that law is God. Whose Son, Christ Jesus, died for you.
There is no force or coercion here, God offers us forgiveness and redemption- if we want it.
