We confront and crucify our temptation to fear, which causes us to avoid suffering and thereby hinders our courageous confession of Christ and Him crucified. Suffering aided the early church's evangelism efforts, and it will improve ours as we suffer minor annoyances or even martyrdom. Robert Lockett encourages us to drive to the truth in a new segment on the show, demonstrating that Christians don't give up when mocked for Christ, and that you don't have to be a pastor to be in the fray.

Today we begin an exciting discussion of Rod Dreher's book, _Live Not by Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents. _ Is America drifting toward some form of totalitarianism? Our elite institutions are abandoning old-fashioned liberalism, which defends the rights of the individual, and replacing it with a progressive creed which promotes social justice through group identity. Dissenters from the woke party line find their careers destroyed and their reputations slandered. All of this is done in the name of liberating victims from oppressors. The question remains, what can we do about it?  Find out more at https://ron-johnson-discipleship-podca.pinecast.co

(41:00) If I can't close the gap to 100% certainty, can I say I have knowledge if knowledge is justified true belief?

For years, émigrés from the former Soviet bloc have been telling Rod Dreher they see telltale signs of "soft" totalitarianism cropping up in America--something more Brave New World than Nineteen Eighty-Four. Identity politics are beginning to encroach on every aspect of life. Civil liberties are increasingly seen as a threat to "safety". Progressives marginalize conservative, traditional Christians, and other dissenters. Technology and consumerism hasten the possibility of a corporate surveillance state. And the pandemic, having put millions out of work, leaves our country especially vulnerable to demagogic manipulation. In Live Not By Lies, Dreher amplifies the alarm sounded by the brave men and women who fought totalitarianism. He explains how the totalitarianism facing us today is based less on overt violence and more on psychological manipulation. He tells the stories of modern-day dissidents--clergy, laity, martyrs, and confessors from the Soviet Union and the captive nations of Europe--who offer practical advice for how to identify and resist totalitarianism in our time. Following the model offered by a prophetic World War II-era pastor who prepared believers in his Eastern European to endure the coming of communism, Live Not By Lies teaches American Christians a method for resistance:   •  SEE: Acknowledge the reality of the situation.   •  JUDGE: Assess reality in the light of what we as Christians know to be true.   •  ACT: Take action to protect truth. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said that one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming totalitarianism can't happen in their country. Many American Christians are making that mistake today, sleepwalking through the erosion of our freedoms. Live Not By Lies will wake them and equip them for the long resistance.

What is the Christian identity? In today's cultural climate the issue of identity is being debated, with those who seek to spin an identity from their feelings, and with those who look outside of themselves for their identity. The question "What defines us?" gets to the point of contention. Do things like gender, sexual orientation, careers, sinful proclivities, or, more religiously, God, give shape to who we are? Do we look within us, or do we look to our Creator? Even Christians have been confused, sometimes using the title: "Gay Christian." How do we sift through the competing ideas of identity? In a word: we go back to God's Word.  For more information, see:  Strange New World: How Thinkers and Activists Redefined Identity and Sparked the Sexual Revolution by Carl Trueman  The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution by Carl Trueman  Live Not by Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents by Rod Dreher  About Being a Boy or a Girl: Discussing Gender and Marriage with Little Ones in Light of God's Word by Lisa Updike  Fearfully and Wonderfully Made by David Menton  Are You Born Gay?

Today's left-wing totalitarianism once again appeals to an internal hunger, specifically the hunger for a just society, one that vindicates and liberates the historical victims of oppression. It masquerades as kindness, demonizing dissenters and disfavored demographic groups to protect the feelings of "victims" in order to bring about "social justice."

Rod's book Live Not By Lies continues to sell well, though with a virtual legacy media blackout. They move on to discuss the necessity to be unafraid of being a Weird Christian and the siren call for Bougie Conformity.

For years, émigrés from the former Soviet Union have been telling Rod Dreher they see telltale signs of “soft” totalitarianism cropping up in America. Identity politics are intruding into every aspect of life. Progressives are marginalizing conservative Christians. Technology and consumerism are creating the possibility of a corporate surveillance state. And the pandemic has left our country especially vulnerable to demagogic manipulation. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said that one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming totalitarianism can't happen at home. Rod Dreher joins Hank Hanegraaff to warn American Christians of approaching dangers and equip them for the long resistance. Topics discussed include: How an essay by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn inspired the title for Rod Dreher's new book Live Not by Lies (6:15); stories of émigrés from the former Soviet Union telling Rod Dreher that they see reminders of communism cropping up in America (7:55); the dangers of cancel culture and people being afraid to speak freely (11:05); the difference between hard totalitarianism and soft totalitarianism (13:50); are we living in a world more similar to Aldous Huxley's Brave New World or George Orwell's 1984?

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank brings up the Hank Unplugged podcast, having just finished recording an episode with Rod Dreher on his book, Live Not by Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents. Hank and Dreher talked about liberal democracy and how it's degenerating into something that resembles totalitarianism. The “liberal” in liberal democracy references the liberties or freedoms that a government is mandated to guarantee its citizens, which includes the freedom of religion, speech, assembly, press, and the right to own private property. And democracy refers to self-government and equality of citizens under the law. All of this means that our liberal democracy provides space and protection for Christians to act for the advancement of justice. And when that protection erodes—you end up with totalitarianism. In the second segment of the broadcast, Hank seeks to answer the question, “Did Adam and Eve really exist?” This question is transcendently important to the historic Christian faith because if Adam and Eve did not eat the forbidden fruit—if they did not fall into a life of perpetual sin terminated by death—there is no need for redemption.
