The Christian Nationalist movement has been gaining traction since September and has been sweeping some Mormons up with it. I get the appeal of this political theory but after doing a deep dive on the subject what I discovered was that we as Mormons will ultimately not fit in with these groups for many reasons. Today Justin Francom joins me for Part One of a two-part series on this subject. In this episode we start by looking at the history of Christian Nationalism tracing its roots all the way back to its inception in America. From there we have a conversation about where this idea was tried in antiquity and what its devastating consequences were for the population of that time. As we carry the conversation forward we then dive into why Christian Nationalism wouldn't work today, why the first principles of the ideas are deeply flawed when compared to the restoration and why we as Mormons can at best only be treated as useful tools to the movement. Please share these two episodes with your family and friends to help them avoid this trap.The Restored Version of the Scriptures www.restoredscriptures.com 1830 Mercantilewww.1830mercantile.org
