Episode Details

In The Menace of Arianism, Rushdoony warns that Arianism is not a dead heresy but a living and pervasive error that subtly denies the full deity and universal lordship of Jesus Christ while often masquerading as orthodox Christianity. By reducing Christ to a “salvation specialist” whose authority is limited to the church and personal faith, Arianism leaves the state, education, culture, and law outside Christ’s rule, effectively promoting polytheism and statism. Rushdoony traces this mindset historically through respected theologians and institutions, showing how it weakens biblical law, elevates the state, and fragments Christ’s sovereignty. The result is an idolatrous faith that professes Christ with words while denying Him dominion over all of life, rejecting the truth that Jesus Christ is fully God, fully man, and Lord over every sphere of creation. #Arianism #Rushdoony #ChristIsLord #BiblicalTheology #ChristianWorldview #Theonomy #Statism #Orthodoxy #FaithAndCulture
