God in a Box: Breaking Free from Dominion Theology

62 min • 24 juli 2025
John and Bob discuss the historical and theological roots of dominionism, tracing its lineage from ancient tribalism through Christian Identity and Latter Rain theology, to its modern manifestation in the New Apostolic Reformation. They examine how belief systems have always included some form of power struggle, with dominionism merely being the latest iteration of an age-old human tendency. Drawing from ancient history, biblical narratives, and personal experiences, the conversation challenges the modern evangelical lens that sanitizes scripture and overlooks the broader, often troubling context in which it was written. They critique how the Bible is often misused to support narrow political or religious agendas, instead of being viewed as a complex historical and spiritual text. The discussion also explores how religious leaders have shaped—and sometimes distorted—the nature of God to reflect their own brokenness, using dogma to enforce conformity rather than fostering genuine transformation. Through comparisons with Islamic eschatology, ancient conquests, the Catholic Church, and even the dynamics of the early Israelite tribes, the conversation makes a case for humility, nuance, and a multi-perspective view of theology and history. Mental health, elitism, and the dangerous allure of theocratic control also come into play, particularly in reference to recent controversies and leaders in the NAR. The episode closes with a call to reconsider how we view both scripture and leadership, especially when distorted theology can perpetuate abuse or drive people away from real healing. ______________________ Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR: Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________ - Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org
