There is zero distance between Trump’s “Grab them by the p**sy” and the Cornell 7’s “Free p**sy.”

Reminder: “Biblical literacy” is a bit of a canard. It usually means “if one doesn’t agree with my niche doctrine then one isn’t biblically literate.” The truth is that one can never parse scripture well if one does not understand Christ’s heart and mission.

1/ Food for Thought: If you're focusing on the 7 Mountains Mandate, ie, dominion over key areas of a society ... you're unable to focus on Golgotha or the empty tomb. A eye looking towards Caesar's throne is an eye that cannot focus on Christ.

This is a good time to remind ourselves that a major driver of modern Christian Nationalism and/or new theological niches … is the narcissism of those involved. Self-love and a desire for importance pushes people into weird places. “I alone understand the truth. I will make others bow to it.”

A church that needs hundred of millions to grow … is a church which has to buy its witness. Yes, this is a subtweet.

The intersection between Al Mohler and Live, Laugh, Love isn’t really found in analysis of doctrine or history … instead it is found at that place where Imago Dei and Imago Evangelicus collide. Link in graphic.

You can't emulate Christ without loving those whom you want to disdain, hate, despise, or vilify. You can't love someone without having empathy for them. You can't fully empathize with someone without having the heart of Christ and seeing them as He does.

Every time a Christian spouts blind hatred against Muslims over 9/11 (or any other reason) ... they are joining the terrorists on the plane. Christ-like praxis makes no room for blind hatred. Our words and deeds lay the road the Gospel walks upon. We should take care to protect the Gospel's voice.

1/ New Episode! Bon talks with guest Josiah Hawthorn about the biggest stories of the past week from a Christian point of view. It's a kitchen sink episode with everything from Trump's 5,000 dollar bribe to Charlie Kirk and Proverbs 31.

This is true bravery and decency in action.

1/ One of the most disturbing things about the “Islam/Muslims are evil” posts from Christians. today, on the anniversary of 9/11 is that it says that those believers don’t see Muslims as Imago Dei, infinitely valuable and loved by God.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but … the doctrinal narcissism displayed by arguments over atonement theories is nothing more than a sibling to Lucifer’s pride. A tradition, denomination, or sect that believe they alone hold the entirety of truth is far from the Cross.

Didn’t Trump declare peace and victory 90 times already?

1/ Jean Paul Miller IS Comp Theology. If you’ve been watching the series on the death of Mica Miller, know this: John Paul Miller isn’t an outlier. I say that as an old pulpit jockey who has served across the Evangelical spectrum.

The purpose of every empire is to perpetuate and justify its existence.  The purpose of the Cross is justify men and restore them to God.  This is why the Cross united with Empire (Christian Nationalism or undue influence/control on society or government by believers) is Antichrist.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Christian Nationalism is the bag that holds the Evangelical Church's 30 pieces of silver.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

A Christ that needs and desires Caesar’s trappings of power is no deity and can save no one. A Christianity that desires Caesar’s power cannot represent Christ.

Two sides of the same coin. "Did you remain loyal?" "Be true to the Fuhrer." Trump is really doing everything he can to create his version of Führerprinzip.

Coming up in 2027, a reality show sponsored by the SBC in which Roman Catholic and Protestant families compete over who can have the most babies in a year. On the last episode polygamist Mormon ringers are brought in who clear the field. The theme song is Monty Python's "Every Sperm is Sacred." ;-)

It's important to note that Natalie Harp's insane letters to Trump are not outliers. They are the written demonstration of what lays in the heart of hard-core MAGA sucked into the cult of the pedophilic rapist. Don't make the mistake of considering them outliers.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

1/ New Episode: @wearenotenemies.bsky.social and Bon talk about Josh Howerton's conversion into an ersatz evangelical Joe Rogan, the way the Global Church is providing an example for American believers to follow, and the televangelist who claims aliens stole her eggs.

The old fascists were notorious for keeping records, even of the most mundane governmental act. The new fascists are working overtime to destroy the data America needs to guide itself. In MAGA-land, nihilism is considered good governance. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

The fact that MAGA-land which has brushed off 40 years of Trump’s sexual evilness, rape adjudication, and his taped confession of sticking his fingers inside women without consent … is rather upset when people mention Natalie. Manufactured outrage. Ponder that for a moment.

Our souls are homesick for a place they’ve never known. The pains we bear as humans are constant reminders that a veil still separates us from what will be once we are with God, in Christ’s coming Kingdom.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

We should feel very badly for MAGA. First, they had to convince themselves they loved pedophilia and rape. Then they had to say they loved inflation, mass-outbreaks of disease, and running up the deficit. Now they have to convince themselves North Korea is their friend.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

Food for Thought: The Christians using Caesar’s power to mandate scripture being taught in public schools … are the same Christians who cheered the pedophile that helped them strip school lunches from the hungry. Christianity is not the same thing as Christ-like.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

@wearenotenemies.bsky.social and I recorded a new episode the other day and at one point we talked briefly about Josh Howerton's trajectory ... and he made an astute predication that Josh wants to be an ersatz Christian version of Joe Rogan. Ben, you called it. Dead on.

1/ I’ve avoided writing anything about Kristin Du Mez’s upcoming book, Live Laugh Love, primarily because voices more erudite than mine among the early readers have been touting it, well. However, with the release coming up soon, I find I now can’t help myself and I’d like to add in my two cents.

The hands occupied with raising a nation’s flag high are unable to carry Christ’s Cross.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

1/ Reminder: Christianity has ALWAYS been a liberal entity. It has always pointed to something new and outside the sphere of normal human government and society. If we examine what the MAGA/Trad/CN Christen are trying to "conserve" today ... it looks just like Caesar's Rome.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

Quarterly Reminder: The promised end-product of the Gospel of Christ is the END of every border, nation, state, and man-made government. Anyone trying to "preserve" America is the name of God or for Christianity/Christians ... has misunderstood the Gospel and its condequences.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

There is no such thing as a Jesus March. The only marching Christians should do is in their personal lived daily witness, and to the Cross, where they lay down all their ego, policy lust, hunger for power, and earthly identity. Any less is just Barabbas looking for attention.

Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

According the MAGA, the God who speaks life into being with his voice … is now reduced to a common household poltergeist.

1/ I find the current rhetoric in the United States, by certain Christians, about Muslim politicians/citizens to be incredibly horrific. The inability of those Christians to understand that Muslim extremism is a tiny fraction of the whole explains why they don't see their own extremism.

MAGA makes cowards of men. The end product of choosing to live in the MAGA machine is the utter evisceration of one's courage, one's integrity, and one's decency. What comes out of the machine's churn at the other end is scarcely recognizable as a man.

To say “yes” to Christian Nationalism in any form or to culture war ... is to say “yes” to the offer Satan made to Jesus at the Mount of Temptation.

1/ Time to put on my Theo Prof hat: This will def be something @wearenotenemies.bsky.social talk a little about sometime in a Sacred Shenanigans episode, soon. It's criminally easy to lump all of the MAGA Christen/CN/Theobro groups into one bucket. But ... that isn't accurate, in the least.

1/ New Episode: @wearenotenemies.bsky.social and Bon sit down with @wthrockmorton.bsky.social about his new book "The Christian Past that Wasn't." Warren walks them through some myths commonly held by Christian Nationalists today about America's founding & talks about what the future looks like.

Tomorrow, @wearenotenemies.bsky.social and I are dropping a great episode. We interviewed @wthrockmorton.bsky.social about his new book “The Christian Past that Wasn’t” and the current Christian Nationalist monster trying to eat the United States. Warren is a rare mind and person. Wonderful ep.

Watching the news and commentary over Fauci before Congress, today, reminds one of this fact: It’s impossible to convince a person to love their neighbor, particularly if that person subscribes to conspiracy theories or weighs communal danger and duty by how it affects themselves alone.

1/ I’ve been working on a long-form critique of Shenvi’s book “Post-Woke.” Going to use it in lectures this fall as an example of power corrupting doctrine, particularly considering how it basically matches/cheerleads the Heritage/MAGA forced societal agenda.
