Pastoral Calls And The Trump Bible Example
- Mike Erre reads examples: a pastor urging pastors to reject left votes and a Trump-branded Bible selling for high prices.
- He uses these to illustrate how far Christian nationalism and idolatry have drifted into politics.
Two Types Of Christian Nationalism
- Mike Erre distinguishes two forms of Christian nationalism: a winsome, evangelistic type and a coercive, state-privileging type that uses power to impose belief.
- He warns fear often pushes Christians from persuasive witness to coercive politics, which harms the church's witness.
America Is Not A Covenant Nation
- Mike Erre summarizes a corrective: America is a nation-state, not Israel, and should not enact uniquely Christian law by coercion.
- He argues Christians should advocate but not use state power to coerce faith or privilege Christianity above other religions.
