This week Douglas Wilson talks about the Russian collusion involving Donald Trump. Then he plods on to review Yoram Hazony’s book, “The Virtue of Nationalism”. Then Pastor Wilson wraps things up by taking a look at the Greek word anoma. Happy Plods!

 

Show Notes:

 

Russian Collusion:

  • It was concluded that there was no collusion with Trump and Russia
  • We have to make a distinction between normal vs regime politics
  • What this means practically is that the democrats are going to conduct a series of unappetizing hearings
  • This would be a royal disaster for them

 

The Virtue of Nationalism:

  • Written by Yoram Hazony
  • He argues wonderfully that we should opt for some form of Nationalism
  • He gives a great discussion of social contract theory

 

Anoma:

  • Rendered as without the law
  • In 1 Cor. 9:21 he uses it four times
  • Also Luke 22:37 and 1 John 3:4
