The Roots of Christian Zionism in America, Part 2 (The Redeemer Nation)
This is part 2 of my series on Christian Zionism in America. It assumes that you have already watched part 1. It seeks to answer why there is such a massive, passionate, politically active and mobilized contingent of fanatical Zionist Evangelical Christians in the United States, and to trace the intellectual and religious tradition of Judeo-centric prophecy interpretation that led to the emergence of this group. But it also seeks to explain the broader question of why America is so pro-Israel today. In this video, I will explain how the Puritan settlers of the English colonies in New England began to typologically identify themselves with Jews and how they began to see themselves as also being, like they thought Jews were, God’s chosen people. In the process, I will explain how this mindset did everything from produce the idea of American exceptionalism, to influence the American side of the Revolutionary War, to justify the eventual emergence of the American Empire, until it became embedded in the very fabric of American culture itself - even among non-religious people. Having identified themselves with the Jews, it was only natural that Americans would develop a very philo-Semitic culture that would identify its own imperial designs with the expansionist and conquering impulses of Zionism - all helped along by a heavy dose of politically active, fanatical, eschatologically-conscious left-wing Protestant Christianity. Then I explore how all of this merged with what later became Christian Fundamentalism, how the idea of political millenarianism continues to survive among the neo-conservatives, and how American culture, rather than having any actual similarities with Israeli culture, is instead just very pro-Jewish in and of itself.
