☭ William (Free 🇵🇸🇨🇩🇸🇩) :
Christ was a member of an oppressed class killed by the State and yet somehow modern American Christians don’t see that he would be for the liberation of the oppressed in the world they live in NOW not the “next life”.

I’ve been banging this drum for years. Modern American Christianity is simply the practice of self-improvement and churches are so insular and promote this.

Isn't what Jesus said we should pray for? On earth as it is in heaven? If we arent bringing the Kingdom now, then whats the point?

People are always resistant to me bringing up the idea that political views are indicators of wider ways of thought

Is this what the “as it is in heaven” part of the Lord’s Prayer means?

In college, I went to a church that completely changed the way that I thought about the scripture. Every week they would say “the Bible is the story of God, from beginning to end, of him putting his family back together.” It’s crazy to me now how much that is affected the way that I view not just scripture but politics and where I am in the world.

The taint of American dispensationalism is unfortunately spreading in Latin America. I spent years in an evangelical church that was obsessed with the rapture and the end of time. Salvation was invented escaping from this world. I have since then moved to the catholic church and I have switched to the idea of salvation where the world not only can be healed, but that it must, and trough Christ it is our duty to help this happen.

Honest question — what if it’s both? What if we are responsible for ourselves AND our community….both can be true at the same time. We have to do our part in both…??

This!!!!! Baptist theology (and much of non denominational Christianity) holds so tightly to “making a personal choice for Christ right now!” And it’s no coincidence that those sects of Christianity are so into the conservative “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” ideas

“When the Greeks got the gospel, they turned it into a philosophy; when the Romans got it, they turned it into a government; when the Europeans got it, they turned it into a culture; and, when the Americans got it, they turned it into a business.” -Richard C. Halverson

Come to an Orthodox divine liturgy and experience for yourself the rich theology that you love to describe on your channel, I can tell you from experience, it's beautiful

The shift from being part of creation and renewal to escaping a fallen world is such a imperialist/capitalist mindset, great video

So if Jesus died for us…he sacrificed for us…wwjd … think of how one individuals actions could “save the world”

Andrew G :
i think I've come to the point of being a universalist w.r.t. salvation, heavily influenced by Latin American liberation theology. I def grew up thinking of salvation as an individual question (in a double-destination Calvinist sense), but see the communal work of building the kingdom as the foundation of collective salvation.

thelema :
really interesting! and i think the core of the american dream begins at the protestant ethic, achieving that signals that you’ve found divine favour and are part of the ‘elect’. probs why tr*mp campaigns on american exceptionalism, it can be read as divine election. making america great again is quite interesting because it’s kinda logically augustinian (once innocence, now corrupt), but it’s also about reaffirming collective salvation by projecting individual soteriology to the nation (to return back to grace).

Healed! I’ve been frustrated with my church over the last few years. They stopped pushing service and started pushing the personal view. I am an “and then” Christian. I believe Jesus is my salvation, and then I will try (and fail) to follow his teachings on Earth to serve others.

Rod Bot :
Very good thought 👏. My personal belief is that we don’t preach the gospel we preach salvation. And the difference is that salvation is a small part of the gospel. The gospel is the story of God and humanity. And the main point of the story is not Jesus crucified but Jesus’ entire life. When we preach the gospel we invite people into a story that is still being told, when we preach salvation we invite people to look at their personal failings and how much they fall short. The hope is that we can continue the model that was set by Jesus in our own lives. On top of that the salvation message that we preach is most often penal substitution, and that in it self makes us look inward. I personally don’t believe in it, I believe that Jesus died for our conscience.

Lewis Burton750 :
I’ve listened several times. Some of what you have said passes over me still. This morning I had a conversation with a friend about Christian assumption of worldly power ie political/ governance. In my mind, to follow Jesus is to eschew these controls. If Jesus wanted governance in his name, He would have established His kingdom when he was here. He doesn’t need us goofballs trying to rule by a seven mountains mandate or some other Sharia type law in His name. This thinking got us into our current fiasco.
