Obviously Jesus didn't say "kill yourselves and give all your posessions to nigs lamo", but what objective standard is there for taking the beattitudes too far? The only standard is an accusation of bad faith. Even self-harm can be seen as expressions of holiness (mortification of the flesh).
>there's a transcendent moral law which says all people are corrupted."
Distinction without difference. Corruption implies deviance from an ideal, and the Godly ideal is Jesus: the altruistic, pious, self-sacrificing moralist (albeit intolerant of false/performative morality).
Now, he did say to act in the spirit of the thing instead of following rules blindly, but I think the actual spirit is still a slave morality. What argument do you have against global negro communism, aside from it not having a cross?
We can theologize our way to a based God that wants the white man to rule the world, but I think that's dishonest and molding the Christian God into our own image.
