Topics
Kirk Cameron: 基督徒正面临一场关乎信仰的真实战争，不能仅仅局限于教会活动，而应积极参与到社会和政治中。他认为所谓的"基督教民族主义"是对热爱上帝、家庭和国家的人的污蔑。当前的社会面临着堕胎、性别认同等问题，以及共产主义的诱惑，基督徒应该积极行动起来，而不是逃避现实。他认为政府不应是第一响应者，例如在飓风等灾难面前，社区和个人才是真正的第一响应者。他相信即使在艰难时期，也能磨练人的意志，让人们更加坚强，并最终迎来胜利。 Glenn Beck: 他同意Kirk Cameron的观点，认为无论选举结果如何，都将使美国变得更好，引导人们回到基本的普世原则。他认为当前的挑战是上帝为属灵复兴所做的铺垫。他提到飓风灾难后，人们开始互相帮助，回归到第一性原理，这让他看到了希望。他认为，在艰难时期，人们会更加关注信仰，并找到希望的源泉。他相信，即使在最糟糕的情况下，生活在这个时代也是一种特权，因为它挑战着我们的信仰，使我们变得更强大。 Glenn Beck: 他认为，在当前的政治环境下，基督徒应该积极参与投票，选择最好的选项，即使这些选项并不完美。他强调，总统无法解决所有问题，这是每个公民的责任。他认为，政府不应成为医疗保健、教育和食品供应等方面的第一响应者，社区和个人才是。他还提到，美国的伟大源于她的善良，如果她忘记了善良，就永远不会伟大。他认为，当前的挑战是上帝允许他的信徒们体验到将祈祷从学校中移除、将十诫从法律体系中移除、将性别定义为社会建构、以及伤害和杀害儿童的后果。他相信，当政治糟糕、经济崩溃、道德堕落、精神冷漠时，往往会发生伟大的复兴。

Shownotes Transcript

Jesus isn’t on the ballot, so how should Christians engage in the 2024 election? For that matter, how should Christians engage in politics in general? Kirk Cameron explains that “Christian Nationalism” is a “slur thrown at people who love God, love their family, and love their country.” Now is no time for Christians to “tuck our heads in our knees, pray for the rapture, and cry into our Chick-fil-A soup.” In an age of “murdering babies in the name of reproductive care,” the mutilation of children for the sake of gender identity, and when too many Americans are being seduced by the “comfort of communism,” it’s time for Christians to get to work. Kirk and Glenn agree, the government shouldn’t be the first responder — not FEMA, not the Department of Education, and not our public schools, which Kirk describes as the “new secular church.” As we’ve seen during Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, we — the American people — are the real first responders. If Kamala Harris is inaugurated in January or Donald Trump, if Jesus returns tomorrow or in a thousand years, these are the “hard times that make strong men” and just could be “our finest hour.”
