I love my Christian brothers and sisters regardless of their lineage. I pray for non-believers regardless of lineage. Politically speaking, as an American citizen, I want my government to stop taxing me so much in order to throw money overseas for warmongering and corrupt purposes, secure our own borders, deal justice to criminals within our own borders, and to drastically decrease in size and scope. If the Lord is exceedingly kind towards me, I'd like to maybe meet a Christian woman who might be open to getting to know me and possibly pursue a relationship, with marriage and children being the ultimate goal. I'm not optimistic on any of the previous actually happening.
Don't give up, Jack. Keep praying. If you have your health and a useful trade, you have a decent chance of meeting someone. ( There is no "chance" with the Lord, but you know what I mean. I'm 72 now. I was never able to get married because I have been severely disabled since I was 7. I was able to nurture the delusion that I would recover my health until I was in my early 50s, when I could no longer brush off the realism of my doctors. When I realized that I was cooked in that regard, there came with it a particular grace. I began to understand that singleness, along with chronic injury, was intrinsic to my vocation, and despite my unhappiness about those things, God had decided I could best glorify Him as a single, disabled man in this world, and that for reasons I can't fathom, these sufferings were also necessary to my sanctification. I hope your wish for a wife and family is granted.
Be faithful no matter what. We will never get all we want in this life, and that's okay. Sometimes, God says "no" to our desires, even the good and godly ones. When that happens, remain faithful to the end.
@@bobtaylor170I'm a 77 yr old married woman who just wants to say: you are beautiful, and I love you for your testimony and your faith in sovereign God. I hope we meet in glory!
@bobtaylor170 man that is hard for me to hear right now. I think it's true, but it's a struggle not to become bitter, but remember that God is holy, faithful, loves me and wants my best. I'm stuck in a literal desert with nothing, can't work or go to my home state because of severe and crazy health problems. Been struggling for 15 years and I'm 38. Some things are better because I'm here, but I sometimes doubt I can ever get out of this. Even before being poisoned, abuse of various kinds has me damaged, and I just don't think I can marry in this life. Knowledge doesn't take away the pain or longing; and the temptation is to harden my heart to at least feel numb, but that's not the Life. I'm humbly asking for prayer, as a younger soul who has not at all reached what you have, but I want to. Thank you
@@googIesux I am so sorry, Brother. It is a tough, tough awareness to cope with. Don't we all wish we at least understood the reasons for our afflictions? We do have the promises of God to keep us going, but it's undeniable that the sufferings of some are much worse than those of most. Remember, though, that God can change everything in your life, as He wishes and when He wishes. And the grace of God is ever real. At 72, I can grasp that what happened to me had to happen as it did, though for reasons I can't begin to grasp. In looking back, I see my life as having the arc of a genuine story, which, of course, it must, because for any Christian, life must. Among other things, Hell is the negation of story, because all true stories resolve in Jesus Christ. I will pray for you. I will pray that God will ease the harshness which you are living through, and will fill you with a sense of keen anticipation of marvelous things to come, because for a Christian, those marvelous things are inevitable.
So who gets to determine whether or not Pastor Joel is owed an apology? I know its not the comments section, obviously! But the fact that I ended up following a story that should have been handled privately is clearly wrong, and you worked with the person who allegedly committed that wrong. If it was all a misunderstanding, and reasonable viewers were misled into thinking you were blogging about Joel all November, then who's fault is that?
When you ask, "What temptations he struggles with simply because he is white" you are failing to connect with your point about Cretans, Jews, and blacks. First of all, many Cretans and Jews are white. Second of all "white" is not a culture on par with any of the others. If you want to be fair, you should ask what temptations he struggles with simply because he is Irish or English or German or anything that is actually a culture. If you are truly asking what sins he struggles with for being white, it may be a propensity to shoplift sunscreen, but that would include white Jews, Cretans, and even lighter skinned and albino blacks.

"The post war consensus", as its now called, has caused us significant loss and a disconnection from the original ideals of our christian forebears. We can acknowledge our wayward drift, of those that promoted it and benefited from it and those that chose a false veneration of influential groups. Most importantly, we build toward a future reclaimed from such heresies for the sake of Christ glorified and for our children
"Consensus" about WHAT?! This is not a word that makes sense on its own. It's like saying "the agreement." The agreement about what? Agreement between whom?

Thousands of years of close contact with demons in the absence of Christian regeneration can do severe damage to a people. Europeans ARE (at least used to be) unique in the population-level extent and generations-long duration of Christian regeneration, and thus, European works tended to (until recently) reflect that regeneration. [I did NOT say that Armenians, for example, did not share these blessings, just that their geographic neighbors do not!]

I have really been blessed by Pastor Doug and others like RC Sproul, Johnny Mac and Voddie Baucham. I have often lamented the fact that this type of serious well-thought-out Christian teaching does not constitute the mainstream Christian thought. As a Christian in Kenya, I see the destructive effects of charismania and I pray daily for the sort of revival that Pastor Doug often speaks about. However, bust-ups like these put me in mind of Paul's exhortation, knowledge puffs up. It would seem that the ordinary fruits of faith, those of charity and grace are sorely lacking among many who deem themselves either reformed or holding to a more robust faith. It is unfortunate that those with a lesser grasp of Christian doctrine often surpass the more 'mature' Christian brethren in this regard. I am not an advocate of empty pietistic thinking and i find discussions around practical applications of Christian doctrine, the sort implied in this bust-up, highly appreciable but let us remember that before the throne of God, it is the fruit of our hearts that shall be judged. God bless Pastor Doug and others of his sort.
Also, perhaps this is just my skew from being raised as a Christian in the African context where men of God are held in high regard, often unduely so, regardless,I find it very strange that the testimony of public faith across generations would be deemed contemptible by men who have done so little in the kingdom of God. While there ought not be a 'touch not the annointed of God' approach, surely, if not the man, then his labour counts for something, and the labours of Pastor Doug, James White are nothing to scoff at. Those waving a hand of dismissal at these men, in light of the testimony of their works, only display a misguided ignorance and arrogance. Ultimately, the Lord shall test the works of each one of what sort it is, and He shall vindicate His servants.
What a convoluted definition of sin haha It’s not that hard or complicated for us Christians, in-dwelt with the Holy Spirit, to call out Jews in power for their behavior without being in sin against God There is no widespread “Motte and Bailey”
You're right, it certainly isn't hard or complicated for a Christian to call out sin in other people, but there are obviously very many that refuse to call it out in themselves.
@ true but clearly with this convoluted video some of the modern day definitions of words like “racism” or “anti semitism” are not actually sins but rather secular name calling games
In response to the intro: Matthew 23:31 christ condemns them for their testimony about themselves. Take it up with him chief. Like the overall message and may God continue to bless your good work in Moscow and beyond!
And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers. For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea. For you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews, who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out, and displease God and oppose all mankind by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved-so as always to fill up the measure of their sins. But wrath has come upon them at last!
Blah blah blah. Thousands of years of humanity is reduced to one Jewish story in Persia as an example of how only the Jews are successful and everyone envies them. Who else did Doug know about in Persia outside of the Mordecai story? So how did the Persian ruled the Jews if no Persian was successful? Where is the Persian success rant from an American pastor? This is so convoluted. He the Idaho guy wonders why he is. Or talking about something useful other than stories about magical tribal supremacy. Exhausting.
It is funny how these reformed guy bashed ethnic gnosticism few month ago during Covid, but are now espousing that who ethnic groups can have a common shared sin or sins.

If I could post screenshots in the comments I could show you 100 different posts right now ..

Is this a real problem in the CREC or at Apologia?
I am done with this conversation. It is played out. I am beginning to notice the time spent on a topic that has very little to do whats happening in my own country, in my own church, in my own neighborhood, and my own family. Take a note from our lefty friends and move on.
Ethnicities sin in different ways because they ARE different. 4000 years of divergence after a genetic bottleneck of 8 individuals makes people groups very, very different.
No they aren’t .. we are ALL HUMAN SINNERS…. There are no different levels of sin , sin is just sin. Whether it’s a murder in an urban area , or an Upper Middle Class man stepping out on his wife in Suburbia , or a child in either of these two households being unruly and cursing at their mother. Sin is Sin , it doesn’t matter what form of sin you committed, you are JUST AS GUILTY in the eyes of God. Blessings to you 🙏
@@Dane-xv7go _"There are no different levels of sin , sin is just sin."_ I do not believe he said that. He said that, because we are different (mentally, behaviorally, etc), the sins that we are predisposed to could very well be different. It does not mean that some sins are extra double bad and others are basically ok. Sin is sin is sin, on the spiritual level, and it's all separation from God. But different patterns of behavior lead us to separate ourselves from God with different types of sin, and because there are clearly divergent average behavioral patterns between genetic populations of people, it follows that genetic populations of people might tend more or less towards particular types of sins.
@ Jesus doesn’t think so: John 19:11 (esv) “Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore he who delivered me over to you has the greater sin.”
Giant Steps! Thanks for that tidbit. The following is amateur work at best, but I like to think it comes together in the last 20 seconds. Haha. Thanks!
Rabbinic Judaism is the religion of El and Baal (Acts 7:43 citing Amos 5). You are defending the Sanhedrin and idolising Satan's chosen. It's abominable.
And yet Stephen prayed (similar to the Lord Jesus) “Lord, do not hold this against them” There’s a time to be savage as men but hatred is weak. Weak men can’t follow the King and His Word
@@user-vr6qc5oe4r sophistry. John the Baptist, Jesus, Stephen and all the early church called out rabbinic wickedness. Doug excuses and defends it. You're on the wrong side.

The flammable material of the algorithms is going to (and may already be) burn like the place from which it drew it's inspiration (biblically speaking)
I have to wonder if Doug has thought about his final point in relation to his own internet diet. He is proceeding as if J hate was rampant in reformed evangelicalism, but what is his evidence? Could it be that the algorithms feed him the fringe J haters because it’s been proven that you will spend more time on posts that make you mad than those you agree with?
Any situation that brings confusion in the body , is not from Yahweh. He is NOT the Author of Confusion . Thank You Doug , for all your great work and dedication to the Truth . I am influenced and fed by men on both sides of the argument, but the issue is there are Absolutely men , that are ABSOLUTELY forgetting that there is No Jew or Gentile , just Saved Sinners , by the Grace and Mercy of Christ Jesus . God Bless All 🙏
For some such topic is like a mosquito constantly flying around causing discomfort. After a while they realise it's a open wound which causes deep infliction on a unrepentant heart. These type of pounding have carefully being carry out for a while now because of the need to be addressed. Discernment it's a rare gem to be found these days. Great presentation 👏 (as always)
The irony here is that all of this conversation about loving one's own is that many of these younger CN's are wanting to treat modern Jews the way first century Jews wanted to treat the Samaritans. However, if you read the 4 gospels you will notice that Jesus went out of His way to make contact with the Samaritans, even revealing His identity as Messiah to them first instead of to His "own" (John 4), made a Samaritan the hero of one of His most famous parables (Luke 10:25-37), and rebuked James and John for wanting to call down fire on a Samaritan village (Luke 9:53-56). Sometimes, in their zeal to establish public morality and Christendom 2.0, I wonder if we theonomists and Christian Nationalists lose sight of the fact that Jesus came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10), that He alone is worthy to open the scrolls of judgment, or that we too are unworthy sinners saved by grace alone (Titus 3:1-7).
Hear hear, well said, and the hand-holding was so humble, TY. There's a self-righteous fault-finding that wants to see condemnation of ones enemies and not just recognition of wrong. To me, fences against an ethnic or cultural-jewish permaban from God are modern day jewish brothers in the faith, some of whom upon conversion try to go to "messianic" churches that continue a lot of old covenant practices, but leave them, confessing things like "there was no life in the old things. It felt empty" -good evidence that they can tell the difference between eternal life through faith in Christ and death, and so have experienced genuine conversion. God saves Jews, and should we want to see it and take part in it?
Doug Wilson makes more sense than his so called "born again" haters...who are they you might ask?...you know...the theo bros on Twitter. By the way, whoever came up with such a cool, streetwise yet puerile term as "theo bros" anyway???
My what social media hath wrought. Do any of these men ever tire of hearing themselves talk? Wilson Webbon White and all the self appointed social media chieftans have become obnoxious and odious. My what a little fame and social media popularity has done for such unimpressive petty individuals and their sycophant worshipers who live vicariously through their heroines. The immaturity and childishness of these sagas are a reproach to Christ and His truth. Men put away childish things at some point in their lives it is high time that our social media personalities do the same.

Is this a real problem in the CREC or at Apologia?
Dude, online and screenshots are not the real world. Maybe it’s time to log off of X
I am done with this conversation. It is played out. I am beginning to notice the time spent on a topic that has very little to do whats happening in my own country, in my own church, in my own neighborhood, and my own family. Take a note from our lefty friends and move on.
And yet it is relevant since there is a lot of public discourse on this topic.
Why are you so angry about it? Why does everything on TH-cam have to circulate around you and your needs?
Preach brother
Not talking about Zion and magical powers of its people is Aunty Samantha! 😄
@@captainfield6998 Why am I so angry? 🤣
Ethnicities sin in different ways because they ARE different. 4000 years of divergence after a genetic bottleneck of 8 individuals makes people groups very, very different.
No they aren’t .. we are ALL HUMAN SINNERS…. There are no different levels of sin , sin is just sin. Whether it’s a murder in an urban area , or an Upper Middle Class man stepping out on his wife in Suburbia , or a child in either of these two households being unruly and cursing at their mother. Sin is Sin , it doesn’t matter what form of sin you committed, you are JUST AS GUILTY in the eyes of God.
Blessings to you 🙏
@@Dane-xv7go _"There are no different levels of sin , sin is just sin."_
I do not believe he said that. He said that, because we are different (mentally, behaviorally, etc), the sins that we are predisposed to could very well be different. It does not mean that some sins are extra double bad and others are basically ok. Sin is sin is sin, on the spiritual level, and it's all separation from God. But different patterns of behavior lead us to separate ourselves from God with different types of sin, and because there are clearly divergent average behavioral patterns between genetic populations of people, it follows that genetic populations of people might tend more or less towards particular types of sins.
@ Jesus doesn’t think so: John 19:11 (esv) “Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore he who delivered me over to you has the greater sin.”
@ what sin had Pilate committed at this point again , can you remind me ??
@@Dane-xv7go Jesus obviously thought Pilate had some degree of culpability. You can’t have ‘grater’ without ‘lesser’. Reading is fundamental.
Dispensationalism makes Protestantism untenable
Im an Ashkanazi Jewish LCMS type Lutheran. Where do I go? Doug Wilson. That's where.
He is federal vision, which some have described as lutheran Presbyterianism
Regardless of the topic, listening to Wilson is akin to listening to a John Coltrane solo. And I love it!
I just listened to a young cat play the ‘Giant Steps’ solo on a banjo!! Look it up!
VERY good comment!!! Cheers!!!
Giant Steps! Thanks for that tidbit. The following is amateur work at best, but I like to think it comes together in the last 20 seconds. Haha. Thanks!

I know exactly what you're talking about when you referenced the Mott and Bailey
Rabbinic Judaism is the religion of El and Baal (Acts 7:43 citing Amos 5). You are defending the Sanhedrin and idolising Satan's chosen. It's abominable.
what?
LOL!!!
And yet Stephen prayed (similar to the Lord Jesus) “Lord, do not hold this against them”
There’s a time to be savage as men but hatred is weak. Weak men can’t follow the King and His Word
@@user-vr6qc5oe4r sophistry. John the Baptist, Jesus, Stephen and all the early church called out rabbinic wickedness. Doug excuses and defends it. You're on the wrong side.
@@thecontrolledmind what’s mind blowing is that the demon (Remphan / Saturn ) they worship knew all along about the hexagon at Saturn (the planet’s) North Pole. How do you make a ‘star of Saturn’? You connect the points on the hexagon. Humans didn’t have this image (google Saturn hexagon) until just a few years ago.
The flammable material of the algorithms is going to (and may already be) burn like the place from which it drew it's inspiration (biblically speaking)
This is way above my mental capacity, I’m a black man edjumacated in publick skuul in Mericka, I’m too dumb to understand this talk.
I have to wonder if Doug has thought about his final point in relation to his own internet diet. He is proceeding as if J hate was rampant in reformed evangelicalism, but what is his evidence? Could it be that the algorithms feed him the fringe J haters because it’s been proven that you will spend more time on posts that make you mad than those you agree with?
It could have been 250,000
Ive noticed alot of folks obsessing.
Any situation that brings confusion in the body , is not from Yahweh. He is NOT the Author of Confusion . Thank You Doug , for all your great work and dedication to the Truth . I am influenced and fed by men on both sides of the argument, but the issue is there are Absolutely men , that are ABSOLUTELY forgetting that there is No Jew or Gentile , just Saved Sinners , by the Grace and Mercy of Christ Jesus .
God Bless All 🙏
I dont think ur actually noticing doug
For some such topic is like a mosquito constantly flying around causing discomfort.
After a while they realise it's a open wound which causes deep infliction on a unrepentant heart.
These type of pounding have carefully being carry out for a while now because of the need to be addressed.
Discernment it's a rare gem to be found these days.
Great presentation 👏 (as always)
The irony here is that all of this conversation about loving one's own is that many of these younger CN's are wanting to treat modern Jews the way first century Jews wanted to treat the Samaritans. However, if you read the 4 gospels you will notice that Jesus went out of His way to make contact with the Samaritans, even revealing His identity as Messiah to them first instead of to His "own" (John 4), made a Samaritan the hero of one of His most famous parables (Luke 10:25-37), and rebuked James and John for wanting to call down fire on a Samaritan village (Luke 9:53-56). Sometimes, in their zeal to establish public morality and Christendom 2.0, I wonder if we theonomists and Christian Nationalists lose sight of the fact that Jesus came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10), that He alone is worthy to open the scrolls of judgment, or that we too are unworthy sinners saved by grace alone (Titus 3:1-7).

Oh good grief Doug 🙄
It's an obsession
That last paragraph was *necessary* 🙏🙏🙏
Unfathomably based. Keep fighting the good fight, Doug, and don't let Groypers scare you. Bless your ministry 🙏
Nice 666 avatar you got there...
Hear hear, well said, and the hand-holding was so humble, TY.
There's a self-righteous fault-finding that wants to see condemnation of ones enemies and not just recognition of wrong. To me, fences against an ethnic or cultural-jewish permaban from God are modern day jewish brothers in the faith, some of whom upon conversion try to go to "messianic" churches that continue a lot of old covenant practices, but leave them, confessing things like "there was no life in the old things. It felt empty" -good evidence that they can tell the difference between eternal life through faith in Christ and death, and so have experienced genuine conversion. God saves Jews, and should we want to see it and take part in it?
I would like a new topic.
Request denied. But about the Jews...
Doug Wilson makes more sense than his so called "born again" haters...who are they you might ask?...you know...the theo bros on Twitter. By the way, whoever came up with such a cool, streetwise yet puerile term as "theo bros" anyway???

My what social media hath wrought. Do any of these men ever tire of hearing themselves talk? Wilson Webbon White and all the self appointed social media chieftans have become obnoxious and odious. My what a little fame and social media popularity has done for such unimpressive petty individuals and their sycophant worshipers who live vicariously through their heroines. The immaturity and childishness of these sagas are a reproach to Christ and His truth. Men put away childish things at some point in their lives it is high time that our social media personalities do the same.
