“The king lingering long in his prayers when he should’ve in battle”, got me thinking about AD Robles recently talking about how our theology of what is good for a man today or what is really pious is to spend ALL of your time reading your Bible, praying, consuming very high theological teachings, in short, to be a Pastor. All objectively great and necessary things, but not every man is called to be a pastor, which is what we’re led to believe is the only way to be a good or obedient Christian man.

[@landonlawson2676]

People always talk crap about Christians for the Crusades, yet they completely ignore the fact that the Crusades were the very first time in history that Muslims were on the defensive. Their entire history is full of them constantly conquering non Muslims and subjecting them to slavery and butchery. They call Muslims peaceful and innocent during the Crusades even though Europe was attacked FIRST! They sacked Rome, Constantinople, and conquered the Iberian pennensula and would of conquered all of Europe if not for Charles Martel (Charles the Hammer) crushing them at the battle of Tours. All of which happened BEFORE the Crusades. Not to mention, the Middle East was also primarily Christian until Islam took it by the sword. Europe was full of warring nations until they got tired of the Muslim abuses and decided to band together to deal with the threat once and for all. It was literally a counterattack, but again, modern people just want to rewrite history and act as though Muslims were the victims.

[@josephm2357]

Great show! More discussion needs to be had on Christian Kings and the Crusades. Very few Christians know about all of this.

[@cristinamz2137]

Yea. But get Catholic history from Catholic sources. Protestants tend to give revisionist history.

[@SnowMonkeyCantSing]

​@cristinamIn historical circles, "revisionist" refers to the removal of incorrect ideas and sticking to the cold, hard facts. For example, a LOT of people online today claim they descend from Edward III. If they have English ancestors, chances are good this is true, but it's no guarantee. A revisionist would go through all the paperwork and other documentation and piece together the facts. If he finds no relation to Edward III, the family might accept the facts, or they might complain that he's wrong, saying, "he's just a revisionist." Yes, he's revised their false history, but he did so using facts, not feelings, and his work is correct.

[@thomaskuhn4095]

As to the "staying in the prayer closet point"--reminds me of Exodus 14:15, where the Lord says to Moses who is on the banks of the sea ready to cross, "Why do you cry to Me? Tell the people of Israel to GO FORWARD." There is a point when it is time to leave the prayer closet and move!

[@Fhillas]

That passage isn’t about them being in prayer, but their complaints of unbelief for God to deliver them “Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, ‘Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it has been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.’” V.12 The battle of the English vs the danish wasn’t won despite extended time in the prayer closet, but probably because he was in it. Providence demonstrates that they were not needed in the battle at that time until the fleeing of the danish. I disagree with their point here. I can promise you that praying too much is not an he current issue that the church is facing today.

@HeartOnHerSleeveThat is libel regarding the statement Pastor Joel says that women sin more than men. The point is that men and women sin. Men and women are inclined to different sins in general.

The answer to all your questions: (2 Thess 2:10) Because they did not receive the Love of Truth, all the Influencers in our culture have been "given over to a reprobate mind" --- they have become, vile, evil, and insane; and THEY are the INFLUENCERS of every sector of our culture, so their evil insanity permeates our entire culture; and now our entire culture loves anything which is evil and insane and false and ugly, and hates anything which is true and beautiful and good. It is critical that we each look very closely at ourselves, and make sure that WE have "received the Love of Truth".

[@Kieitup]

I found this pastor just yesterday and watched several episodes back to back. Here I am again tonight and I’m hooked. I was struggling with the fact that there are so many different pastors and/or groups putting out information on the faith and the “Word”. Then I landed here by a miracle of God. Also I was a little distressed about all the different interpretations of doctrine. The Holy Ghost revealed to me that I should read the Bible daily and learn the truth for myself and I really feel that He has blessed this platform of your videos to teach me more. And I want to express my gratitude, thank you Pastor!!!

[@Hbr_ed]

The purpose of a Pastor is to help a church navigate the Word so that they may know His Will. The pastor SHOULD be teaching you the Word. This man doesn’t teach the Word, only European and American culture, only citing verses from the Bible when it suits what he wants to say. Be very careful, Brother.

[@DarthBalsamic]

This is actually a subject I'm very interested in as the history of the Crusades, and the historical figures, demographics of the soldiers, geography, and even the reasons behind it, are quite comprehensive. One aspect I was reading about a few months back was regarding the various heresies they had to confront and how they went about handling them. I found that fascinating. It takes time to learn and research it. It's definitely true, which is very bizarre in American Christianity, that it is either whitewashed, scorned, distorted or ignored altogether. I've personally taken to collecting books and following folks, many of whom are Christian, who go through this history. I'm nowhere close to being where I want to be yet with knowledge of this history. It's quite interesting and quite valuable overall. Anyway, good segment and discussion.

Not sure I agree that we (the West) is “under judgement “. I believe it is more a case of God “turning us over” to our deviant desires ( as in Romans 1:18-32) God has reached out to us for over 2000 years, but His patience with us is waning. Certainly, judgement and wrath IS on the way, but for now, as we live under grace, our biggest enemies are ourselves, our own wicked hearts.

[@Selah57]

Don’t underestimate the ruthlessness of the female nature. Women of valour are seen in the Old Covenant. Deborah, Miriam, etc. And they are actually ruthless when necessary. But while that response may be called upon in certain situations such as the defence of her children, the required ruthlessness damages and wounds her nurturing soul. It’s also wise to consider that the desired ideal of male protector and authority is not always present or even visible on the horizon…..

[@deborahcatalano261]

[@lawnigeria2133]

A king lingering in prayer when they ought to be at battle, and yet coming out tops, seems like a good thing happened, right? Seems like Providence at work, if we are to think biblically. But beyond that, it offers us no generally or widely applicable principle. He lingered in prayer, for we do not know what reason (probably God's restraining hand so as direct the succession in a certain way and to take the glory that belongs to Him) a good thing. And his brother fought a mismatched battle, weighed against his side, and won. Couldn't we simply say the persevering prayer supplied strength? And courage? To those at the front? Like Moses praying and Joshua fighting? And all things worked together for good? As to that singular occasion? Can't we say those and move on, without canonising the moment as a post-millenial moment? Doing things trumping lingering prayer? Extra-biblical History isn't Scripture. In Scripture, we saw where prophet Samuel lingered, clearly on the side of God. And we saw that Saul took steps to start the battle, afraid the enemy would get the upper hand due to Samuel's lingering. And we saw God's judgement on Saul for not waiting. And trusting that God is never late and that His purposes cannot be thwarted. So, no. While I like that story, I do not like the stretch it's being taken to. Seems contrived: finding a story to affirm a preferred post-millenial narrative.

It would be really helpful to me, in trying to understand your points, if you could give a definition of “pietism” or “pietistic Christian.” It is a term used a number of times by the three of you to describe, it would seem to me, most Christians in America, but I am not altogether sure what you mean by it. Another term it would be helpful for you to define for me would be “Christendom.” what do you mean by it precisely?

I am pre trib pre millenial, and I have and never had ideas that you are attributing to dispensationalist. We are not pansies, leftists , feminists. In fact I think you’d find that many of us happily agree with you about playing the long game even though we have expectiontion of the Lords soon return. I imagine that I would feel at home in your congregation . Even though I do think your straw manning us or at least what I believe is most of us dispensationalist.

[@andyjones1982]

A Christian King. The wilful weirdness of Catholicism is relatively recent. Moreover, ancient Israel was a law-based republic and became a monarchy against God's desire. "It is not you [Samuel] that they have rejected; they have rejected me as King." America was the first nation in a long time to succeed at being what Israel was meant to be: a Christian constitutional republic. Atheist republics are the chaotic copy-cat thing not the original. A Catholic-style monarchy would be better than a French Revolution, but I think most Christian Nationalists are still aiming higher.

[@toddstevens9667]

Theology, just like politics, makes for strange bedfellows. So when are you starting a crusade against unbelievers, Joel? Lol. Just joking. But I now see why on other videos why you stated that you thought that Christianity started a downward trajectory starting with the Reformation. A Baptist minister opining over the halcyon days of the Crusades … who woulda thought? But I did enjoy this video … in a weird sort of way. P.S. Just went back and re-listened to some of the arguments. Couple thoughts: 1) Interestingly, just heard a dispensationalists making similar arguments about the suicidal tendency of contemporary America. So dispensationalists don’t necessarily disagree with much of the cultural analysis of these post-millennialists. I mean, it’s not as if dispensational baptists are voting for legalized abortion, LGBTQ rights, and wokeism. So there seems to be much common ground in terms of social analysis and voting patterns between these post-millennialists and dispensationalists . And 2) I think much of the political problem in the United States revolves around the structure of our constitutional democracy. I sum up our government this way: the winning candidate is the candidate or position that convinces the most number of sinners to vote for them. The United States, like every country in the entire world, is populated completely and wholly by sinners. And they vote to legalize their sin. And that’s the United States in a nutshell. So don’t be surprised that conservative evangelicals are fighting a losing battle against abortion (according to the latest FOX news poll, 70% of Americans support legalized abortion with few, if any, restrictions), Social Justice, LGBTQ rights, and various other aspects of the woke agenda.

I wonder what books you all have read, because a lot of your history is off. As has already been said, Queen Elizabeth I defeated the Spanish Armada. I feel like as Protestants, that is something worth mentioning. And whether you like it or not, Muslims *have* contributed greatly to science, math, and literature. Even paper and the musical instruments we enjoy come from them. Protestantism didn't exist during the Crusades, so it is strange you would defend them. Also, these "defenders of the faith" sacked Constantinople. The British Empire may have done some good, but it also oppressed other Christians like the Irish and the Boers.

[@nolanroesler4126]

History is complicated is the point. Looking at history like a Marvel movie where there are obvious good guys and obvious bad guys will lead down the path of chronological snobbery and the self hatred the pastors spoke about in this video.

[@catotheyounger2689]

@@nolanroesler4126 I definitely believe that we should have pride in our history. It really is a shame when people flagellate themselves over the past. However, these pastors were making generalizations that align rather closely to everything else they have said before. Well, except for the Crusades thing. I thought Roman Catholicism is bad from a Reformed perspective. I am slightly surprised they wouldn't condemn them just for that fact alone. If this is how history will be taught in their school, I am concerned.

Reigning queens are contrary to scripture. The people who had them probably justified it on the grounds that there was no direct male heir, but it was still wrong. In the case of a king with only daughters, the daughter should have been required to marry, and her husband should have become king. That is how it is done in fairy tales. In fact, I recall reading that Prince Albert was actually king for all intents and purposes, so the greatness of the morality of Britain during that time is probably due not to Victoria as such, but to the clean-up operation that Albert led when he moved into the palace. It's a shame he died so young, and that Parliament refused him even the title of King Consort due to him being a foreigner..

You guys say "calculus" but I'm pretty sure you meant "algebra". The term algebra sounds arabic as indeed its origin is from the time before Islaam destoyed intellectual pursuits in the region. Calculus is like 500 or so years later when Europeans used algebra and real numbers to understand calculus. Elements of calculus were known to experts thousands of years ago, like China, or Archimedes.

I for one would never choose to allow a stranger into my home or an invader into my country. I KNOW the difference between compassion and Foolishness . I do not give the children's food to the dogs under the table . I believe Men should lead us, but when they refuse, that is a horrible betrayal to women and children. We are protectors of the home. Most women in leadership are Liberal . John Knox was an absolute misogynist after the manner of most Muslims I am related to Latimer. A Catholic King would have done no less than Queen Mary. Some of the strongest Christians I have known were Women, who incidentally, led their Husbands and children to Christ. We should Complement each other, not put each other down or tear each other down. We are co heirs in Christ but we have very different roles.

Have you read how Protestant theologians of the reformation and post reformation taught against the crusades? And Hus? I think they were right. The protestant heritage is not the Crusaders, that is the Papal Antichrist. Just war is different. Please read Andrew Willet. He writes against Rome in 1600. You can read his work on Reformed Works Online against Romanism. Don't conflate the papal crusades with just wars.

[@cristinamz2137]

And I think you need to become a student of history before throwing more Protestant hate into this mix.

[@truthisbeautiful7492]

@@cristinamz2137 I have been studying history for decades and already have a degree in it. I referenced a historical, primary source. What 'hate' are you talking about about? Is it 'Protestant hate' to critique the papal Crusades while holding to just war? Is it because I referred to the Confessional Protestant position, in the Lutheran, Presbyterian, Baptist confessions (and historically in the major leaders of the church of England) that referred to the papacy as an institution, a succession of men(not some individual Pope) as the Antichrist? Who else is the Man of Sin who seats in the Temple of God, that is, the Church? Who else is the city that sits on seven hills and that is symbolically called Babylon? What other city has been drunk with the blood of saints besides pagan Rome and Papal Rome? I believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only Head of the Church, as Scripture teaches. I dont believe the bishop of Rome is also the Head of the Church, as that is a unique office that can only be held by the Meditator who is both God and Man, the Lord Jesus Christ. For anyone to claim to hold an office that only the Lord Jesus Christ can hold is offensive to Protestants. I would also note that the followers of the Pope of Alexandria or the Russian or Greek Orthodox don't think the bishop of Rome is the Head of the Church. Be clear, do you?

[@cristinamz2137]

@truthisbeautiful7492 And all of this just to show how utterly ignorant you are of Catholicism, what we believe and why, even with your supposed degreevin history. What is clearly showing is your biased education against the Catholic Church. It is evident that you are incapable of assessing it with fairness, which all that we as Catholics have ever asked. And just to be clear, please understand that Catholics believe Christ is the head of the Catholic Church, because HE founded it. The Pope is only His vicar, meaning His major domo. And yet, even with your proclaimed disdain for the office of the Pope, you make yourselves mini- popes, claiming all authority to interpret scripture and invent new dogmas, dogmas that had been unheard of before the Protestant Revolt of 1517. You declare yourselves heads of your own churches and give yourselves authority that was granted to you by no one. Yea, I'm speaking of Luthetans, Baptists, Calvinisys... and the list can go 100 names deep.

[@cristinamz2137]

@truthisbeautiful7492 All of this to show how utterly ignorant you are of Catholicism, even with your advanced degree. 🙄 No, the so called " Orthodox " bishops don't recognize the pope's authority, they are the original Protestants. 😉 They are heretical in the sense that their loyalty is placed with their nation state before it is placed to Christ. This is why the name of their countries come first. This is also why whenever there is a war between those countries, they take up their flags, just like the Ukrainian Orthodox is doing against the Russian Orthodox rigth now. They will eventually destroy themselves, if the Muslims don't finish them off first.

[@cristinamz2137]

@truthisbeautiful7492 Let me now tell you what we Catholics think about the office of the Pope. First, Jesus Christ himself is the Head of the Catholic Church, bcause He is the one who founded it. The Pope is a major domo, simply an overseer of the Church. The major domo is always given the keys, by the King Himself, to His Kingdom, to keep affairs in order while the King is "Preparing a place" for us in heaven. Yes. CHRIST IS KING. And the Pope is His Major Domo, meaning Christ left him in charge. As an American Protestant, this whole thing about submission rubs you the wrong way. It's as if rebellion was baked into your DNA. But God requires submission to authority, to HIS authority via the Apostles and their successors whom He left in charge of His Church. Humble yourself, stop rebelling you prodigal son, and come back home to the Catholic Church.

What is the truth on Constantine?

[@theeternalsbeliever1779]

The truth is that Constantine was just as antichrist and evil as all of the other Roman emperors who opposed the truth of God. History is written by the victors, and the false Roman church acquired the political and ecclesiastical power to control the narrative. It portrayed its history as Christ conquering paganism. However, traditional Christianity ironically became the means through which all of the sun worshiping religions kept themselves alive.

[@cristinamz2137]

The truth about Constantie is that he barely converted to Christianity towards the end of his life. The only thing he did for Christianity is make it legal in the Roman world where Christians had to hide, celebrate the Mass in the catacombs, and eat the Eucharist is secret. He did see, however, that those Christians were good people, and peaceful who always helped those in need. So he legalized Christianity( and lets be clear. When I say Christianity I mean Catholicism), he returned to them their properties which had been seized by the Roman pagan government. The whole idea that he's the one who invented the Cathlic church and forced everyone to be Catholic is a Protestant fallacy constantly told by people who hate the Catholic Church, like the guy who replied before me.
