I wish to make some opening observations about the NBC piece on Theocracy and Christian Nationalism featuring an interview with our speaker at Providence Church (CREC) this weekend, Douglas Wilson.
First, let’s applaud the level of professionalism from their end. Go, team drones! Those aerial images were stunning!
I am also certain that several things were edited and that Wilson elaborated further, and those observations were cut for nefarious reasons or basic editorial purposes. Still, Wilson’s voice was heard loud and clear, and the differences emerged without much trouble.
Second, the platform given to Wilson and the Moscow crowd simply elevated the respect many have shown towards them in the age of media hysteria over COVID. During COVID, the good folks there stood firm and kept singing in the reign of Jesus. This piece from NBC and the follow-up discussion among the panel only confirm even more so the admiration we should have for the endeavors going on over there and the sheer enthusiasm they are providing for other towns such as ours here in Pensacola, Fl.
Third, when NBC marvels at the simplicity of a statement favoring biblical marriage and subsequently the opposition to homosexual marriage, we should be encouraged to state the obvious even more clearly among the masses. These basic concepts of Christendom 099 are losing their currency among the elite secular voices and growing in power among those who believe. So, as the world forgets the basic structures of society, we uphold, proclaim, and cheer the world’s forgetfulness. After all, this is what happens when God begins to give a society over to a reprobate mind.
Fourth, the representation of those who oppose what’s happening with Wilson’s endeavors who actually live in Moscow is perhaps the greatest evidence that what those good folks at Christ Church are doing is actually working. You see, man is symbolic. And when that which symbolizes the opposing viewpoint is offering us Baalism in human form, then we have already won the symbolic battle. For instance, when a unitarian, universalist, female person playing the role of a pastor says that Christ Church, Moscow is not a church, but a cult, then silence is our best strategy. Let the left return to their own vomit without any encouragement on our part.
Fifth, when we talk about Christian nationalism, we are talking about doing our business here first and then exporting it to the nations of the earth. And, amid this process, if Brazil gets the Christendom bug first and straightens their priorities and makes Jesus King of the samba party over there, they can export their goodness to us. This is not a competition, it’s a team sport, and we will take all the help we can get, but what we can’t do is act as if our national interests should take 32nd place.
Sixth and finally, “reformation and revival” is the name of the game. This is a generational battle. Whether we are 2,000 in a small town of 25,000, we still act as if the covenantal business is our business unto a thousand generations. A small band of faithful doers will easily outlive a large band of masqueraded thugs and lesbian voices.
Press on Canon Press, Douglas Wilson, CrossPolitic Studios, and all you rowdy boys and girls out there. The battle belongs to the Lord!
