Is that an earthly nation? Or a spiritual nation where Christ is King and his followers are citizens?
1 Peter 2:8-10
They stumble because they disobey the message; they were destined for this.
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood,
a holy nation, a people for His possession,
so that you may proclaim the praises
of the One who called you out of darkness
into His marvelous light.
Once you were not a people,
but now you are God’s people;
you had not received mercy,
but now you have received mercy.
