Doug TenNapel @DougTenNapel - I like DeYoung but resent this question about CN, because it’s absurd to even ask it (and he is intelligent enough to know that):
“Question #1: Do you unequivocally renounce antisemitism, racism, and Nazism?”
I’m considered a reformed Presbyterian and I can find more quotes from reformers going all the way back to better justify asking it of them than Christian Nationalism.
On nobody agreeing on what CN is, that is also true of nearly every faith statement. I used to love watching your father debate RC Sproul or MacArthur on infant baptism.
Given CN is so new it will take a while to shake out who wins the term as a trophy. But nobody nailed it better than Voddie, “by what other standard would we establish a nation? Islam?!”
I once read Greg Bahnsen’s “By This Standard” so the concept can’t be that alien to any of us. All that’s left is to find out our Christian Nationalism should be practiced, but I intend it practice it the same way I would practice Christian Family-ism.

What @RevKevDeYoung has done here is truly remarkable. There is barely a word in it I disagree with (I suppose at the very end, his negativity about postmillennialism is one example, but that’s okay - I have every optimism that he’ll come around). =)
But this is the tone and tenor in which these conversations ought to be had, and this approach to the subject should go a long way towards showing: (a) The futility of the CN nomenclature; (b) The incoherent definition of it all; (c) That those who desire to see a Christianized America are not remotely out of step with the liberal order, and are, in fact, PROTECTED BY IT; and (d) That there are good faith and bad faith people in all different aspects of this, and we will have more fruitful dialogue focusing on the good faith folks.
I am so very grateful for Pastor DeYoung’s work here.

FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash - When Dan Bongino and I came to the FBI in March, the pipe bomb investigation had been stalled for going on 5 years. We rebuilt it from scratch - re-running every lead, re-testing every piece of evidence, bringing in top experts, and deploying new technology to engineer the break that finally nailed the suspect.
Today is result of that outstanding work. We didn’t need new evidence - just new leaders, and a new President @realDonaldTrump willing to let good cops be cops.
I’m extremely grateful to @FBIDDBongino, our @FBIWFO leadership team, @AGPamBondi, @USAttyPirro and every partner who helped deliver this win. This is a focused, rebuilt @FBI delivering results for the American people.
