Finally, Christian nations should regard themselves as nations of true dignity, being a people of the true God on earth. This status should give them confidence and even boldness in their national and international affairs. They can and ought to use their resources and influence to spread the Gospel in non-Christian nations and to support fellow Christians in establishing and maintaining Christian political orders. This dignity also places domestic obligations on them to uphold national holiness and righteousness; they ought to act in a way befitting their dignity.
