"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." Rev. 18:4
This is perhaps one of the most profound utterances in John's Revelation. It contains the racial message of Christian Identity that the White race i.e. Israel is God's people. We always have been and always will be His people. But, we are commanded to come out of her, which is alluding to Mystery Babylon in chapters 17 and 18. Mystery Babylon represents the culmination of filthy state sanctioned religious, political and economic systems of death.
What is it that we should come out of? To the Christian Identity community it is removing oneself from the traditions of man which manifests itself in jewish fables found in the catholic church and subsequent judaized churches. It's the doctrines of little men inculcating fear of non-existent gods and deities in the minds of the children of God (violating the first commandment i.e. Exodus 20:3) and making His people think that they must kill those who disagree with them (violating the sixth commandment i.e. Exodus 20:13), thinking self-righteously that they doeth service to God (John 16:2).
Since the time of Christ there have been those who violently try to take the Kingdom of God by force (Mt. 11:12). The jews killed Christ, thinking they were doing a service for God, but all they showed themselves to be were small 'g' gods. The divine admonition is for White people to come out of this insidious and self destructive thinking. The so called church (of Rome) has become indistinguishable from the synagogues of God's adversaries. And this infection will no doubt try to worm its way into Christian Identity.
But we are told to 'Come out of her' who is drunken with the blood of the saints and martyrs of Jesus (Rev. 18:4, 17:6). Christian Identity recognizes ourselves as the "Chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that we should show forth the praises of Him who hath called us out of darkness into His marvelous light" (I Peter 2:10). In order for a royal priesthood to come out of the darkness there must be a royal law to guide their paths to light and life. And in fact there is: "If ye fulfill the royal law according to scripture, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well" James 2:8. "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love" (1 John 4:7-8).
Sadly, this lasting standard of God is lost to those who cannot or will not practice the Word. They will not be able to come out of their personal interpretations of love to justify dark and destructive patterns of conduct. Hasn't the apostate church done this very thing in the name of God? Why should we emulate what we are to come out of? We should not confuse the purpose of the Law with God teaching us the principles of loving Him and each other. Love is the centerpiece of all scripture. If it is not yet the centerpiece of Christian Identity, it should be. Doctrines pale into insignificance if the Christian cannot conduct themselves in a godly manner. Is fratricide pleasing to God? This is found nowhere in scripture.
God wants us to have eternal life with Him, but first we must learn how to live with each other without brother warring against brother. We can do just that by coming out of the babel and seeing that the spirit of the law is far superior to the letter of the law, which the Pharisees corrupted for self gain and murdered our Lord and Savior. For 2000 years we have witnessed this bloodshed purportedly being Christian, but it is nothing more than a façade and impersonation. Are we not better than Cain and Judas?
The royal law is the perfect wisdom of God to deliver us out of a world of bitterness and sophistry. Who shall separate Christian Identity from the love of Christ and keep us in the bonds of the beast? I dare say it is those who live by the sword and shall die by it as well. Sin is simply violating the royal law of love and the wages of sin is death.
May God bless Christian Identity to come out of the throes of self destruction and enter into His marvelous light of life. With our explosive increase in knowledge, let us not lean unto our own understandings, but to trust in the Lord with all our heart. God will not allow the status quo of worldly behavior as found in petty jealousies, resentments, bearing false witness, hands that shed innocent blood or encouraging such crimes and those who sow discord among brethren… to move forward into His Kingdom.
The royal priesthood that comes out of the religious machinations of fables and ungodliness will enter the Kingdom of God, whereas those who never understood their calling in life will be outside for without are "Dogs, sorcerers, whoremongers, murderers, idolaters and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie" (Rev. 22:14-15). Failure to come out of this dark world of wicked imaginations will leave them outside of the Kingdom in the dark. I believe there will still be a time for reconciliation, but that's another subject for another time. "O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endureth for ever."
