In episode 44, I will be discussing some very controversial subjects. However unpopular it may be, regardless of what people may think or say, as a simple matter of principle, these issues must be appropriately addressed. The Word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword. A two-edged sword cuts both ways. It shows no partiality. So, get ready…
I have been asked my opinion about Joel Webbon several times over the past several months because he is one of the few other conservative Christian voices that has been outspoken against Israel and the Judeo-Christian post WW2 lie. I haven’t had a strong opinion about him or his views until just this past week. Two events sharply changed that:
First, there was the announcement that Alex Jones will be a plenary speaker at the NXR “Christ is King — America After Trump” conference, along with the interview that they did together where they talked about their vision of America after Trump. Second, there was the online debate that Dale Partridge did where he defended “the curse of Ham.”
These two events made me do further some further research on their particular view of “Christian Nationalism,” and I was deeply troubled by what I saw. In fact, what I saw was so concerning that I came under conviction that I had a duty and an obligation before God to speak out against these things regardless of the consequences. So, here we are.
What I will demonstrate in this video is that the “Christian Nationalism” of Joel Webbon and Dale Partridge is not actually Christian at all—unless we forsake the Protestant Reformation and any real definition of what it means to be a genuine Evangelical. Their view of “Christian Nationalism” fully embraces Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy.
What really seems to matter in their view, which perhaps Dale Partridge is more open about, is the “National” aspect. For him, “Nationalism” is very much based on your race. Dale believes humanity is divided up into three distinct races, and Africans are an inferior race. So, preserving a distinctly white America is essential to his “Christian Nationalism.”
To put that another way: In their view of “Christian Nationalism,” doctrinal differences can easily be set aside. What really matters is that America is a distinct nation of European ancestry. Evidently, they would rather have a white Roman Catholic neighbor with a statue of Mary in their yard, than a black neighbor who holds to a Reformed confession of faith.
In other words, this is actual racism, which is a sin. However, it gets even worse…
What Joel reveals is that his view of government is not as biblical as it might first appear. His view does sound biblical at times. However, it is either (1) very convoluted by a strong pragmatic bent, or (2) he actually holds to a different view of government altogether. What he articulates actually compares with Adolf Hitler’s National Socialism, a.k.a. “Nazism.”
So, this will require us to take a look at what Joel Webbon is advocating for in “Christian Nationalism,” and then we will compare it to Hitler’s own words regarding National Socialism and how it differed from Marxist Socialism or Communism. What we will see is, there are striking similarities between Joel’s “Christian Nationalism” and Hitler’s “National Socialism.”
This epsiode is going to require balanced non-reactionary thinking, and the ability to apply the same apologetic standard to both “the Jews” and “the Germans.” By the same standard that I would condemn Messianic Judaism and Christian Zionism, I must also condemn Joel Webbon and Dale Partridge’s version of Christian Nationalism outright.
My position has not changed at all, but in light of what I now know about their views, this clarification is needed. I don’t want to be associated with Joel Webbon or Dale Partridge at all. Their positions do not represent my own, even if there are many similarities. The differences are serious enough that I must take a stand. I cannot do otherwise. So be it.
