Christian Nationalism: Faith and Politics Collide | Bob Scott | Episode 455

John and Bob dive into one of the most complex and controversial topics of modern faith—Christian nationalism. They trace its deep roots from ancient divine-mandate kingdoms to the Holy Roman Empire, Nazi Germany, and today’s New Apostolic Reformation. Along the way, they unpack how faith and politics became dangerously intertwined, forming what John calls “unholy alliances.”

The conversation moves through biblical history, the transformation Jesus taught, the American founding fathers’ debates over faith and governance, and even parallels between Christian and Islamic nationalism. Through humor, candor, and historical insight, John and Bob challenge listeners to separate the kingdom of God from the kingdoms of men—and to rediscover the gospel’s call to humility and transformation over dominance and control.
