Ep. 438 - The Third Temple: A Theology of Delusion, with Father Tom Soroka
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
About
What happens when bad theology becomes the foundation for an entire political and religious worldview?
Fr. Tom Soroka joins me to discuss the Third Temple, Christian Zionism, and the theological assumptions that have shaped much of modern evangelical Christianity.
We examine the dangers of interpreting Scripture through political ideology, the obsession with rebuilding a temple in Jerusalem, and how these beliefs stand in contrast to the historic Christian faith.
Most importantly, we discuss what the Orthodox Church has always taught about Christ, the Temple, and the fulfillment of God's promises.
