I mainly bought this book in support of the author, Andrew Torba, and his relentless fight to preserve free speech in America, and I have to say, this book changed my outlook on the future. For a long time I’ve been interested in a great number of religions, their origins, beliefs, and cultures, but I’ve always come back to Christianity. It’s inspiring to see a man like Andrew Torba unapologetically standing for his unwavering beliefs.
Before reading, I was skeptical of this book. At only around 160 pages, I thought, “what could possibly be covered?” I read it in two sittings. However, it didn’t disappoint. It serves as a drastic reminder of what I think modern Christians have lost in recent times, and that’s bravery. It cuts through the moral relativism that modernity has offered and proudly proclaims “No, this is not the way.” The authors are also not afraid to repeatedly profess their faith and provide numerous Biblical and historical references to their claims.
It’s a great, quick-and-to-the-point, starting place to restoring one’s nation back to its faith and grace. As a fellow Christian man, I believe that Jesus sacrificed for us all, and that through Him and his teachings, we can have a direct relationship with God. Christianity is carved in the very bedrock of this nation’s founding and there is constantly so much being done to erode and defile it, it’s refreshing to see that not all hope is lost.
Honestly, unrelated to my review of the book, I think a country where the mainstream believes that someone like Larry Flint is a “hero for free speech” for peddling pornography addiction, objectifying women, and destroying marriages, while simultaneously condemning a faithful family man like Andrew Torba, for literally promoting and defending truly free speech for ALL people (or as close as one can get in the “legal” sense) just so that he can unapologetically spread his faith, is a country that is confused, sad, and probably on the brink of collapse.

A chronicle reminder of America's forgotten wisdom
The entire world owes its current quasi freedom to America and its founding fathers vision. The Founding Fathers would tell you themselves that they owe all their wisdom and faith to our lord Jesus Christ. Whether one is a Christian or not, we have all benefitted from the faith based principles of the Holy Bible.We now see that our complacent generosity has been fully exploited by the world. We can not sit back and hope that the devil will play fair, or eventually people will come around on their own. Being lukewarm is not going to cut it anymore, those days are over. Christians will still love and accept all people but its time to stand up and share our faith to the lost and dying. Torba is sounding the trumpet in this book for all of us to wake up.

In terms of his Christianity, he is denominationally open as long as it is biblically Christ-centred; “The time for emasculated, retreatest, “tolerant” Christianity is over” is his claim; and that “Now is the time for a masculine, crusader “Jesus is King” Christian revival.” I see this as not just perfectly valid, but absolutely necessary. There is a time for every purpose under heaven. He is at pains to ensure that this is over-and-above the idea of his flag-nationalism. He is not in favour of American specialism, being some kind of promised land. In fact, much of the booklet/manifesto (it is light, but punches above its weight…) is about what Christian Nationalism isn’t, as opposed to what it specifically could be, on the ground, in a future time. He can’t be blamed too much for this, considering the size of the satanic edifice that faces him and continues to spurt out lies, half-lies and general seething hate about everything he stands for.
In terms of the booklet/manifesto being a “Biblical Guide For Taking Dominion And Discipling Nations” it manages to deliver; but when it comes to specifics on the ground, “a guide for Christians to take dominion and disciple their families, churches and all nations…” it remains light on specifics. Parallel economies and worldviews need to be fleshed out in the field. At some points I get the impression that the booklet was written and edited in a rush, to fit a moment, which might be good in terms of some an overarching strategy, but less so on-the-page. I would have liked more on ‘how’ if it's going to be a guidebook; and what it IS more than what it isn’t.
I also can’t help comparing elements of the argument to T. S. Eliot’s magnificent long essay “The Idea of a Christian Society” which is downright unfair considering he is one of the greatest literary artists, stylists and thinkers of the last century in English. But he did try and actually come up with a practical model and overarching shape of a kind National Christianity, if not a Christian Nationalism, and how it might work on the ground; and while this might be dated in its outlook, and horribly interrupted by the second of the brother wars in Europe (the price for which has been both an acute cultural PTSD and what could only be an old testament-level curse from God) it is definitely worth visiting or revisiting in Torba’s context. Eliot’s warning was “We might of course merely sink into an apathetic decline: without faith and therefore without faith in ourselves, without a philosophy of life, either Christian or pagan; and without art.”
It turns out that in 2020 it’s even worse than that
