John and Bob dive into one of the most complex and controversial topics of modern faith—Christian nationalism. They trace its deep roots from ancient divine-mandate kingdoms to the Holy Roman Empire, Nazi Germany, and today’s New Apostolic Reformation. Along the way, they unpack how faith and politics became dangerously intertwined, forming what John calls “unholy alliances.”<br /><br />The conversation moves through biblical history, the transformation Jesus taught, the American founding fathers’ debates over faith and governance, and even parallels between Christian and Islamic nationalism. Through humor, candor, and historical insight, John and Bob challenge listeners to separate the kingdom of God from the kingdoms of men—and to rediscover the gospel’s call to humility and transformation over dominance and control.<br /><br />00:00 Introduction<br />01:00 Defining Nationalism vs. Christian Nationalism<br />04:00 Ancient Roots: Divine Mandates and the Gods of Nations<br />09:00 Jesus’ Rejection of Earthly Kingdoms<br />14:00 The Rise of British Israelism and Racial Theology<br />18:00 The Holy Roman Empire and the Birth of Christian Nationalism<br />23:00 Hitler’s Third Reich and the “Thousand-Year Kingdom”<br />25:00 Unholy Alliances: Church, State, and Power<br />27:00 Mike Bickle, IHOP, and Modern Parallels<br />29:00 Nixon, Branham, and the Cold War Weaponization of Religion<br />32:00 Are We a Christian Nation or a Godly Nation?<br />37:00 Founding Fathers and the Balance of Religion and Power<br />43:00 Common Sense, Thomas Paine, and Religious Rationalism<br />47:00 The 1980s Moral Majority and Modern Polarization<br />50:00 Islamic Nationalism and Global Parallels<br />58:00 The Seven Mountains Mandate and New Apostolic Dominionism<br />1:00:00 Why Power Corrupts: The Failure of Modern Christian Leaders<br />1:04:00 Final Reflections: The Real Kingdom Is Not of This World<br />______________________<br />Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:<br />Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962<br />Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K<br />______________________<br />– Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham<br />– Subscribe to the channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBSpezVG15TVG-lOYMRXuyQ<br />– Visit the website: https://william-branham.org<br />– Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WilliamBranhamOrg <br />– Follow on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@william.m.branham<br />– Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/wmbhr<br />– Buy the books: https://william-branham.org/site/books
