Pastor Wilson offers fresh perspective and inspiration to Christians about what are we against. "politics doesn't save us, that needs to be saved" It is an amazing interview.
@@manager0175There is a difference between a separation of the institutional jurisdictions of church and state (which Doug fully supports), and the separation of religion and society (including the civil government) (which Doug does not support). And I would agree with Doug.
Outstanding conversation! I am beginning to see the younger people, mostly friends of my children, are beginning to seek Christ out and it makes my heart swell. It’s dawning on them that something very important is missing and his word is getting through.
Matt, I'm so happy to see this conversation happen! Crazy to hear about how you and Doug have a past family connection. Doug's stories about your parents were very touching. Keep up the great work.
Having followed Doug for years, it’s crazy how all the sudden he’s seems to be less of an unmentionable. I keep seeing him pop up on other channels I don’t follow (like this one). Good to see
Nobody needs your imaginary friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The correlation is clear and strong: The more secular tend to fare better than the more religious on a vast host of measures, including homicide and violent crime rates, poverty rates, obesity and diabetes rates, child abuse rates, educational attainment levels, income levels, unemployment rates, rates of sexually transmitted diseases and teen pregnancy, etc. You name it: On nearly every sociological measure of well-being, you’re most likely to find the more secular states with the lowest levels of faith in God and the lowest rates of church attendance faring the best and the most religious states with the highest levels of faith in God and rates of church attendance faring the worst. CHRISTIANITY IS A DANGEROUS MENTAL ILLNESS!!!!!

@@unkown312 Please elaborate? I'm not sure if you're opposed to any kind of morality whatsoever in government, or if you support church being in government.
@@PanhandleFrank if we read our bibles and pay attention to how the apostles move, we would see that they were very much involved with politics. There was a reason they were all killed the way they were. They made an impact in the complete culture of the time.
@@unkown312 I agree. The apostles _as individuals_ were involved in politics and had a vast impact on their culture. They prophetically spoke truth to power. That's not the same as arguing for the involvement of _the institution_ of the Church in the State. Both institutions are servants of God, but have different jurisdictions and tools of rule. And again, morality must exist in civil government. So when you initially told me, "No" ... what did I say that you were disagreeing with?
That’s precisely why we have to thank God for all the hardships that we experience because he is refining us so yeah maybe somebody wouldn’t be happy about it in the time but it’s essential for the plan 1:36:10
On the conversation of technical ability or loyalty... look at El Salvador. Especially in light of them, together, going, "We don't know what to do. Let's pray to God for His wisdom." Boom! MS13 taken down. Loyal to God. Loyal to His calling on your profession.
At 1:33:08 DW asks, "can God freely and unalterably write a scene in which I say certain things freely?" Great question! the answer is yes, that's molinism!
Any form of incrementalism is easily dismissed. Deuteronomy 18:10 LSB - “There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, There is no room for incrementalism in this matter. Obey the word.
If your vote meant there would be an incremental law that abortions would be cut by 60%, would you not vote for that incremental measures because you didn't get a full on ban?
I haven’t gotten to the incrementalism discussion yet. But some problems (child sacrifice, eg) require an immediate 180, while others can allow for a slower course correction.
@@PanhandleFrank What do you think is the second and third biggest problem in America. I'll give you a hint about my opinion, both of them involve children.
A Gen Z died and went to Heaven. The Lord said to him, "Depart from me, I never knew you." The Gen Z said, "But we have texted everyday." The Lord said, "Correct."
It is that simple. Are we going to pick the side of King Solomon, King David, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, Job, Peter, Esther, Zaccheaus, Samson, Noah, King Manasseh, etc. or pick the side of King Herod, Pharaoh, Herodias, Jezebel, Sodom and Gomorrah, Korah, Dathan, Abiram, Ananias, Sapphira, etc.? There are two political parties exactly behaving like those people from the Bible. God bless you. Just my two cents. Have a great day.

@@manager0175 Your statement, “…blending religious and institutional jurisdictions”, makes no sense.
@@manager0175 You are still conflating religion and church.
Great story in the opening. Ive been a fan of Doug Wilson since his covid lockdown pushbacks.
Outstanding conversation! I am beginning to see the younger people, mostly friends of my children, are beginning to seek Christ out and it makes my heart swell. It’s dawning on them that something very important is missing and his word is getting through.
Yes, America needs God, very much so.
This has been the best interview for understanding Doug and the Moscow Mood! Keep your heart on God in 'everything' in your life! Thank you!
Amen
Incredible interview. Awesome to see fruit from faithful service decades ago.

Innaccuracies?
@manager0175 could you be more specific about the inaccuracies? You made an accusation with no evidence or support.
@@lindsaybarlow7946
My guess is that you'll get crickets in response to that question.
@manager0175 you want to prove @etc9468 wrong?
That was an excellent and thought-provoking discussion! Thank you! ❤🙏
Great HONEST Conversation on Grown Up Men who want to do Manly things to set up family, society and Future. A light in a very dark room
The world needs more God and Jesus.

Wow! I was so pleasantly surprised to see you two together! Amazing post!
This is amazing!
How did I miss this interview? Matt it's awesome you interviewed him!
Thank you Pastor Wilson!
The little things are the biggest things.💯
God bless. Europe needs to return to God.

This was delightful!
I love that i can be apart of these conversations, even if its just warching on TH-cam...lol
Another Doug Wilson win! Big Eva loses again
The separation of church and state is to keep the government out of church, not the church out of government
It’s both. Keeping the church out of civil government ≠ keeping Christians or morality out of government.

People need to do the great commission, instead of just community works.
Do you suppose that “community works” are somehow _counter to_ the Great Commission, always and in every case?
Any form of incrementalism is easily dismissed.

“There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire,
There is no room for incrementalism in this matter. Obey the word.

Doug is faithful to the mission no doubt, and also faithful to doughnuts. Like all pastors. LOL.
