THE LIVESTREAM - What John MacArthur Misses With Christian Nationalism

from The NXR Podcast · host NXR STUDIOS

n the past several weeks we have seen two examples of high-profile evangelicals who have criticized the positions of Christian Nationalism. In Particular, John MacArthur and Owen Strachan both argued that it is impossible for a nation to be ‘Christian’, and argued that God’s kingdom is primarily spiritual. Both of these arguments fail to understand what Christian Nationalism claims. In particular they miss these two points. First, that Jesus himself, not the church, has already won the earth by his obedience, death, and resurrection, and is therefore entitled to all of its spoils. Second, that though Christ’s kingdom is not OF this world, it is definitely present and spreading throughout all of it. These two examples show how, yet again, the evangelical church is largely responsible for the crisis that the west is in. Tune in now as we try to correct the record and offer a victorious path forward.
