Taylor, known for his work on the New Apostolic Reformation, explores the complex relationship between Christians who are not Christian nationalists and Christian supremacists, who use Christianity to gain power and marginalize others. The essay delves into how different interpretations of Jesus' teachings can divide communities and the impact of Christian supremacy on contemporary American politics, especially in light of events like the January 6th Capitol riot. Taylor also reflects on his personal journey as a Christian amidst these tumultuous times and calls for a return to the core values of humility and compassion epitomized by Jesus. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 02:00 The Colonized God: An Audio Essay by Matt Taylor 02:06 Christian Symbols and January 6th 05:23 Christian Supremacy and Its Roots 09:59 Theological Reflections on 1 John 13:28 Gnosticism and Early Christian Conflicts 23:47 Modern Implications and Personal Reflections 35:09 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Learn more about your ad choices.
