Pushing the Antithesis with Rep. James Talarico
Gary responds to an interview clip from a state representative from Texas named James Talarico, who claims abortion is compatible with the Bible.
In simple terms, a Christian Reconstructionist is anyone who believes that the Bible applies in some way to issues beyond personal salvation. Do you believe that the Bible has some very direct instructions on how a pre-born baby ought to be treated and that civil government has a role in prohibiting abortion? (Exodus 21:22-25). If you do, then you are a Reconstructionist to some degree. Do you believe that the Bible is a blueprint for prison reform? (Exodus 22:1-9; Ephesians 4:28). If you do, then you are a Reconstructionist to some degree. Read, for example, what Charles Colson, late president of Prison Fellowship, writes about prison reform:
Recently I addressed the Texas legislature …. I told them that the only answer to the crime problem is to take nonviolent criminals out of our prisons and make them pay back their victims with restitution. This is how we can solve the prison crowding problem.
The amazing thing was that afterwards they came up to me one after another and said things like, “That’s a tremendous idea. Why hasn’t anyone thought of that?” I had the privilege of saying to them, “Read Exodus 22. It is only what God said to Moses on Mount Sinai thousands of years ago.”
This is the essence of Christian Reconstruction. The Bible’s laws, including, but not limited to, the case laws of the Old Testament, are applicable today, and, in Colson’s words, are “the only answer to the crime problem.” Of course, a Reconstructionist would say that these laws are an answer for our crime problem and much more, including, but not limited to economics, education, law, politics, business, ecology, journalism, and medicine.
Is Christ’s kingdom unreal in history until He comes again to sit on an earthly throne? If so, is Satan’s kingdom unreal in history until he comes to sit on an earthly throne? If the second question is ridiculous, then so is the first. Christian Reconstruction: What It Is, What It Isn’t spells out in a clear, concise way the theology, the movement, and the ideals of Christian Reconstruction. It sweeps away the systematic misinformation proposed by opponents of the movement. If you want to know what Christian Reconstruction is, go to the source.
Gary responds to an interview clip from a state representative from Texas named James Talarico, who claims abortion is compatible with the Bible. Gary has discussed statements from Talarico before regarding the Ten Commandments. He is attending seminary and studying to be a pastor, but his ignorance of biblical topics is truly astounding.
