The Long View: Theonomy, Globalism, and Babylon

A brief note by John on Thomas Friedman's imperial policy ambitions, and Antipas Ministries, which still has a website sixteen years later. Theonomy, Globalism, and Babylon This note was originally posted to the Talk 2000 Forum, and appeared in the April 1999 issue of Let's Talk

The Long View 2002-10-21: Culture War and Foreign Policy
