Wretched Radio with Todd Friel

DOES GOD WANT AMERICA TO BE A CHRISTIAN NATION?


Listen Later

Segment 1:

• John MacArthur: There is no such thing as “Christian Nationalism.”

• Jesus never tied political power to advancing His kingdom.

• Christ came for hearts, not government control—He calls us to live transformed lives, not to seize nations.

Segment 2:

• Christians should care about politics, but can’t force governments to obey Scripture.

• Jesus’ kingdom is not of this world—He didn’t overthrow Rome.

• Christian Nationalism often lacks clear biblical support despite quotes from theologians.

Segment 3:

• Jesus promised His spiritual kingdom would prevail against darkness, not political kingdoms.

• We must align with what Scripture says, not postmillennial dreams of a theocracy.

• Christians should engage politics wisely, but expect the world to get darker, not Christianized.

Segment 4:

• Seeking a “muscular Christianity”? Be careful it doesn’t become vigilante Christianity.

• When, if ever, should Christians resist or overthrow corrupt governments?

• We must obey God over man—but Scripture limits when and how resistance is biblical.
