Summary

Is Christian nationalism a dangerous eschatological error—or does the debate reveal a much deeper disagreement about Christ’s rule over nations? In this episode of The Magistrate, Josh Howard is joined by guest host Cory Wing to respond to Phil Johnson’s recent comments on Christian nationalism and postmillennialism. They examine whether nations can become Christian, whether the church is called to transform culture, the proper distinction between church and state, and whether civil government can ever truly be morally neutral. Along the way, Josh and Cory interact with questions surrounding John MacArthur, Grace Community Church, Covid-era government overreach, Psalm 2, Psalm 82, Isaiah 11, the Great Commission, and John 18. Can Christian political theology acknowledge Christ’s authority over rulers and nations without confusing the distinct roles of church and state?
