The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Theonomy

1. Christians are not called to WIN anything, never mind individuals or especially nations. No nation has ever been "won for Christ"; not even Israel among within which only a small percentage (remnant) were actually truly regenerated and converted. Billy Graham used to use that terminology but I don't recall any Puritan using it knowing that it is by the power of God the the Spirit working in conjunction with the Word that a sinner is saved from destruction and becomes a disciple of Christ. But perhaps I am being deliberately nitpicky?

2. I know of no traditional Amillennialist who believes the majority of people on earth will be saved and that Christianity will dominate all facets of life around the world. Sorry, but I don't believe in a "One World Christian Government" that follows the law of God. Such a phenomena is called the New Heaven and New Earth. The visible church will continue to be more and more heretical, apostate and worldly until Christ returns. Again, He is already victorious in that He accomplished ALL that the Father and He agreed upon in the Covenant of Peace. Establishing a Christian world is not part of that plan.

3. I don't know what "issue" you are referring to in Sam Waldron's critique of Theonomy? I simply mentioned Waldron because I think he does address the major problems and errors in the Theonomic Reconstructionist position. And there are a few articles on The Highway which I think are more than sufficient to counter those who embrace Theonomy. If you have read those already, then perhaps reading them once again would help you with your 'friend'?
