The conversation spotlights “victorious eschatology” through a living remnant: two Virginia Tech students, Gil Roten and Camden Whitener, who call themselves the Kingsmen. Raised outside explicit Reconstructionist circles, they were drawn in through Bible study and presuppositional apologetics (Durbin/Van Til/Bahnsen/Rushdoony). On campus they practice bold but cordial evangelism every Friday at a high-traffic intersection—using conversation-inviting signs like “Jesus was sacrificed for sin. Babies shouldn’t be.”—and funnel interested students to “Theology Tuesday” at Panera and to their local church. They emphasize standing openly on Scripture in classes (especially philosophy), report mostly respectful interactions, and even once refused to disperse when threatened with arrest over their sign—without ultimately being arrested.

Their aim is practical, generational Reconstruction: obeying God’s law, building Christian community, and making the faith’s intellectual depth accessible. Both plan ordinary vocations (accounting, statistics), marriage, family discipleship (Deut. 6), and—if providence allows—writing, podcasting (Sola Lex Dei), and possible church planting to create a tangible place people can “point to” for Reconstructionist life and teaching. They reject celebrity-driven movements in favor of grassroots faithfulness, intend to keep a durable network with fellow Kingsmen, and invite contact (e.g., Gil on Facebook and the Sola Lex Dei podcast) so others can learn, join, and replicate the work.
