In Which Heidi Przybyla Shows Us the Way | Doug Wilson

- The world of Christian X was all in a doodah over something that Heidi Przybyla said last week. Now this was fully appropriate, but Christian worldview thinking demands that we take care that it be the right kind of doodah. If we get into any weird kind of doodah, this reveals more about us than we would perhaps like to be revealed. And what that would reveal is that we don’t really know who we are in the story, or where we are in the story.

Excellent commentary, Mr. Wilson.
Amen, well thought out American conservative political thinking, thank you! I hope the Republican Party is listening.
I’ve never had to increase playback speed for a Doug Wilson message.
😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣
Haha amen he needs to slow these way down
😂😂😂
One of the best entries in a while. November never stops I guess.
Sometimes I feel like if I stop paying attention for one second it turns into a whole nother conversation
Thomas Woods taught me 30 years ago the difference between the US and the Federal Polities of the world. Their rights come from the government, and can be numbered. Our rights come from our Creator, and cannot be numbered. We consent to be governed ONLY on the guarantee that the government will keep their paws off our rights.
This is why John Adams stated the constitution was written solely for a moral and religious people and is wholy inadequate to the governing of any other.
That Lindsay in the court of Josiah comparison was really really good.
I actually have always had a heart for James Lindsay and feel to pray for him pretty regularly. His work has been invaluable and he really has a great deal of wisdom for an unbeliever. That being said, this critique is pretty spot on.
His formative years with the New Atheists which he spent deconstructing religion have made him incredibly effective against Marxist paganism. It has unfortunately been a double-edged sword that keeps the Holy Spirit (and thus the truth he is so close to reaching) at arm's length, even though I suspect the Lord has been on the march in his life.
Additionally, because his job is essentially to steep himself in Marxist primary documents, he is constantly dunked into that darkness. I think it has distorted his perception. The Marxist gods seem much bigger and more effective than they actually are and the God he doesn't yet believe in seems much too small. Don't get me wrong, the enemy has a pretty good track record, but they aren't omnipotent. It's important to keep things in perspective lest we forfeit by default because we were too afraid to move our chess piece and be immediately checkmated. Because he doesn't believe in the victory of the Lord, he can't approach that battlefield with any modicum of faith.
Lastly, he presupposes virtue without the conviction of the Holy Spirit. He doesn't understand that fruit doesn't just spring up without the vine and that he is the inheritor of a peace which was carved from the spiritual wilderness by his forefathers. He's certainly not the only one and it's a flawed belief held by many of his colleagues. Still, I pray and am hopeful that the Lord will sidestep his intellectual defenses and touch his heart.
Well said Brother.
And that, ladies & gentlemen, is how it’s done!💋⚔️🇺🇸🎯🕊
Spiritual optometrist! I love his an eyes opening commentaries 👍🏼
Times like this is when I miss Christopher Hitchens the most.
You’ll see him again one day

How many statues have to be toppled before we get a clue about what is going on?
All of them.
Including the idol called Jesus Christ.
I’m not sure I understand your meaning. Are you in support of the message being given here or taking a shot at it? No disrespect, I can’t tell so I’m asking is all.
@Alien1375 are you jewish?
@@jawshh559 why not both?
Well, tell us what you think is so catastrophic about removing statues of Confederate heroes. Do you think that their noble fight to preserve and expand slavery is worthy of honor?
Well said. We should all read Dietrich Bonhoeffer's The Cost of Discipleship now and prepare our hearts.
Bonhoeffer was a heretic, so I'd read him carefully.
Bonhoffer is a heretic
The Stone Choir podcast episode on Dietrich Bonhoeffer caught my attention, and I have never looked back. The man was a Karl Barth acolyte and the heretic who denied all of the central tenets of the faith.

I listen to Corey and Woe too
@@Razaiel You are correct. The "Godless Christianity" movement (Altizer, Hamilton, Harvey Cox, et al) of the early 1960s was entirely based upon Bonhoffer.
Common grace is common FOR EVERYONE whether or not they know or reject the Lord God Almighty. The only difference is that we who know Jesus as our Lord and Savior will not face the righteous judgement of God the father, praise Jesus. Those that reject God/Jesus will indeed face the righteous judgement of God the father. The fact that they too enjoyed common grace will be the greatest damning evidence against them in that day of judgement, an extra large heaping of 'burning coals' on their head, so to speak
Wonderful message!
Do they realize that if rights come from the government, they would have to acquit every s.s. man whose defense was "I was just following orders" at Nuremburg. (Which was all of them.)
Oh like following God orders to kill your son for being gay? You can be moral without a Christians God.
So, if rights come from God, then Moses would have to be acquitted for exterminating the Midianites?
Heidi Pryzbyla gets, not the golden calf, but the prize bull for idol worshiping Egypt, I mean, the state.
Beautiful!
Never have valued James Lindsay's opinion nor have I ever trusted him
I have always thought he is good at diagnosing some issues but his solution is so far off base.
Amen
Oh, Doug. I had my 8, 11, and 13 year old watch this this morning. I paused it several times to clearly break down the three options: Pagan Nationalism (Nazi-ism), Pagan Globalism (woke-sim or communism...also Islam) and Christian Nationalism. It helped so much to have those three definitions for them.
So sad that the corporate leadership of the American church has never taken a single course on learning about God's relationship to human government (on all levels...from the individual to the family to the community to the county to the state to the region to the highest federal levels....also including thrones in industry such as Hollywood, the CDC, NASA, Harvard, etc.). SO thankful there are some (few) voices out there like Wilson's, who can articulate the relationship well and with dry wit. 🙂
If the state grants our rights then the state may clawback our rights. The thin veil has been pulled back, I just hope people are paying attention.
All you need is 3/4 of the states to ratify a new constitution, and the old one is gone. The current Constitution says very clearly that governmental power comes from the consent of the governed. Not from God. Not from the Bible.
@r0175 Yes, and NOT from the gubmint itself, or the so-called representatives & agent within it & those who run it - THE PEOPLE. 😁
However, a "Convention of States" to amend or replace the Constitution is waaaaaay too dangerous... It would be giving the snake consent over the entire cage of mice to do with as it likes, and I think we know how that ends.
@manager0175 The Framers' understanding of Scripture is clear throughout our constitution. They knew very well the doctrines of depravity and original sin and took action to create a constitution that defends the state from potentially corrupt leaders who would see themselves as the highest authority. Numerous supreme court decisions have acknowledged the transcendental nature of our rights and the Biblical root of our Constitution. But alas, you are right; the consitution isn't clear enough in its Biblical basis, but as you say, we can ratify a new one. I look forward to the day that we ratify a constitution with a preamble that declares, first and foremost, "Christ is Lord".
@@manager0175The current Constitution also allowed for the holocaust of 63 million babies in the womb. This is the problem I have with Constitutionalism. Anyone who claims to be a Christian had better recognize that we’re way past the “best enjoyed by” date recommended by the Founders.
@@jaredlowry970 You said: "The current Constitution also allowed for the holocaust of 63 million babies in the womb." You do understand that from 1776 until 1914 abortion, assisted suicide, opium, MJ, and cocaine were all legal in the US? Ben franklin gave very precise, very accurate medical advice to women to give themselves at home abortions. This was considered normal medical advice at the time. You then said: "Anyone who claims to be a Christian had better recognize that we’re way past the “best enjoyed by” date recommended by the Founders." . If you want to do away with the Constitution, by all means, say it, and run for elections on that platform. After all, that is what "Christian Nationalism" must do to establish their political domain.
Love it
i love it
Amen.
I’ve ready Wordsmithy and I noticed your Perelandra phrasing!
If loving God, your country and your constitutional rights make me a Christian nationalist. Then guilty has charged. If government gives us our rights than they can be taken with the stroke if a pen.
"If a crisis can give government the right to suspend rights, then there will always be a crisis."
Yes I quit going to Thanksgiving dinner because of this
Excellent, but I keep running into the same question. Where can someone who has believed the Gospel and responded in repentance (Mk1:15) find any rights other than to become a child of God (Jn 1:12)?
All humans are created with rights and responsibilities. Most traditional wisdom has acknowledged this for millennia. America is regressing to back before the dark ages and into the rule of the jungle.
It think it actually is going back to the dark ages, when the church had all the power.
Am I the only one baffled to see Wilson using the term op? 😳
It's a very common word in the political world. Everything is an op these days.
So Amos 1:6 justifies dropping phosphorous on tents where people are huddled at the Rafah border?
Shoneys and Doug
I’ve noticed that in person, people rarely refute what one has to say. They refute you because “you’re evil” or for no other reason than “they don’t like you.” Tends not to gain them much sympathy with the growing crowd listening to two people with the nerve to actually converse.
This is not a drill.
I'm #808 on the likes! #Boom
I am ready to take up my cross and follow Christ even to death. Are you? God be with you.
I will have to watch this when my brain is more awake. But, aw, I love James Lindsay.
What ever happened to Michael Ofallen, is he okay?
Doug always makes some great points. Ive been listening to him for about 12 years. I believe he’s one of the best pastors and thought leaders christians have. I converted to Roman Catholicism a couple years ago but still listen to him all the time. I pray for the success of his church and his goals. I think he’s one of the few die hard Protestants that see us as allies in this fight against the secular world. 6 of the supreme court justices are catholic, and that has had a massive impact on our government, abortion specifically. We have minor and major theological differences but when it comes to the kingdom, we should be on the same side!

Well, you're making me want to become a preacher, just so I can argue the truth back into the forefront of the American mind.
I don't know if I'm called though, and I'm definitely not trained.
God can handle the training, but seek Him prayerfully in the Word, with counsel from Godly men, and a calling might make itself apparent. Check out Spurgeon's advice on preacher / pastor callings too. In the mean time, edify your church with good conversation, truth, and encouragement. Blessings brother.
priesthood of all believers is a good place to start thinking.
What is "op"?
Is that how she pronounces her name???
It would be Shi-bill-uh here 😂
Lindsay is controlled opp
Amen and amen brother in Christ.
Ah yes, that age old trope: true worship of a false god exposing our society’s false worship of the true God.
Caeser Prima
I only submit to god. I will not submit to a government influenced by the world
I can't believe we have adults that still believe in sky fairies. Very sad. I know 5 year old's that have more common sense.
You were made by our Divine Creator, so was the universe, for nothing can be created from nothing. Evolution isn't real for the fact that if we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys? You can deny the feeling of emptiness that holds your heart, be HE is real and HE loves you. So make your fun and know I love and pray that you come to know God and His Son Jesus Christ.
Can I make a suggestion that you establish a little background in your talk on the person and her recent statements before you dig in, instead of insisting that a reader begin in the middle of a book? I was already slightly familiar with Przybyla through another podcaster’s more thorough background treatment of her, including a clip of her actual statement about Christian nationalism. Otherwise, I would have been completely lost on this critique.
You have an irritating penchant for running ahead with people and issues you simply assume everyone knows about. This has me turning off quite a few of your videos since I don’t have the luxury of spare time to research the issue after the fact.
Often when there’s an issue like this it is because this is merely a narration of his blog article, and there are things that can’t be narrated, memes, videos, screenshots of tweets, etc. For this one, and for many others, I just go to the blog and see the full thing.
@@kaylar3197
Two introductory sentences would have done. That’s not hard to do.
I actually agree with your point and would appreciate if they find a way to bridge the article/video gap. I was just sharing that tip in case you weren’t familiar with the blog.
@@kaylar3197
No, I only see Doug’s presentations on YT.
It does appear that Americanism is, itself, a religion.
That part seems to be always avoided in these posts. Ironic...
There’s nothing unlikely Americanist about these posts except that Doug is oftentimes primarily speaking to issues facing the church specifically in America, as an American Christian.
@@ReformedSooner24 I guess everyone needs to evaluate the emphasis and goals on their own.
People vocalize their priority. It's inescapable.
@timmartin4216 one man prioritizes local matters (whether it be here or there), another man prioritizes national matters (whether his own nation or another nation), and another man prioritizes global matters. Let them all be convinced in the Lord.
King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits and its breadth six cubits. He set it up on the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the justices, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces to come to the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. Then the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the justices, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces gathered for the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. And they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. And the herald proclaimed aloud, "You are commanded, O peoples, nations, and languages, that when you hear the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, you are to fall down and worship the golden image that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up. And whoever does not fall down and worship shall immediately be cast into a burning fiery furnace." [Daniel 3:1-6 ESV].
If it is and I believe you make a good point... It is as disparate as Christianity. 😂😂
Doug where do the words social justice come from what is the etymology of that phrase "Social Justice"? Doug are you really willing to identify the rulers in high places and struggle against them? Przybyla believes nothing !She is serving a different god ; the "christian nationalism" that Przybyla seems to be attacking is the one she wants to be consumed by. A nation of Christians is never an op , yet "Christian nationalism" as media characterizes is something they are seeking to create not destroy ,a "Christianity" that performs the ceremonial duties mouthing the words of morality ,love, charity and UNITY with out the concept of right or wrong . Your problem Doug is my first two questions. False Christian nations have been around for a long time yet True Christianity transcends all nations. Who built secularism Doug, was it all of us? No it wasn't ! so name that tune Doug who runs it all? Notice those Alma mater statues at the colleges aren't being torn down Doug . Why is that Doug ? Have you ever looked at those Alama Mater (nourishing mother) statues Doug?
I am a Christian, conservative and a patriot. I believe that we have been imbued with unalienable rights from the Creator. I believe that there is a distinction between being a patriot and a nationalist: the patriot has a love of people and place; the nationalist has a love of government. The real nationalists are the leftists who are pontificating against conservative Christians.
I tried to listen to his argument, but I couldn't quite hear anything over the sound of his microphone cable screaming.
What does that even mean?
??? I heard nothing like what you are describing. Trolling, being sarcastic, being supercilious, or perhaps spiritual warfare?
If the State is god then eat the bugs...And if the Bible is NOT True lets put each other on the Bar B.Q. as well...Atheism is Insane...Praise the Lord Jesus...Amen...
