About this listen
In Subversion of Words, Rushdoony argues that revolutionary movements advance by corrupting language, redefining familiar terms like republic, love, and especially God to mask humanism, statism, and rebellion against biblical truth. He contends that apart from orthodox Christianity, most religions are effectively atheistic, replacing the personal, sovereign God with man, fate, nothingness, or the state, while still exploiting biblical language to maintain credibility. Modern churches, he warns, often participate in this deception by preaching revolution under Christian vocabulary, substituting socialism for salvation and statism for God. Tracing this linguistic corruption through thinkers like Nietzsche and Hegel, Rushdoony frames the conflict as Christ versus Caesar, insisting that true reform begins with restoring honest language grounded in Scripture and submitting once again to the living and triune God revealed in His Word. #SubversionOfWords #Rushdoony #ChristianWorldview #BiblicalTruth #Statism #Humanism #ChristVsCaesar #Theology #FaithAndCulture
