📚 Définition et évolution du terme 'Evangelical'

Le premier paragraphe introduit le concept d'Evangelical et son évolution au fil des ans. L'auteur, Tim Alberta, explique que traditionnellement, les Evangéliques étaient perçus comme un sous-groupe au sein du protestantisme américain, ayant une foi profonde dans la Bible comme étant la parole de Dieu et ayant le devoir d'apporter l'évangile à travers le monde. Cependant, avec le temps, le terme a pris une connotation politique, devenant associé à des conservateurs, des républicains et des soutiens de Trump. Alberta souligne comment cette évolution a nui à la crédibilité de la mission évangélique et a marginalisé ceux qui ne se conforment pas à cette image.

05:04

🤔 Comment les Evangéliques justifient leur soutien à Trump

Le deuxième paragraphe explore la manière dont les Evangéliques perçoivent Trump comme un choix divin, malgré ses actions et ses caractéristiques qui semblent aller à l'encontre des valeurs traditionnelles chrétiennes. Alberta discute de la façon dont certains Evangéliques utilisent des arguments théologiques pour justifier leur soutien, en comparant Trump à des figures bibliques imparfaites utilisées par Dieu. Il soulève également la question de savoir si Trump a été choisi pour protéger leur idéal américain ou pour les éprouver, en les éloignant de Christ et en transformant la politique républicaine et le trumpisme en idoles.

10:04

🔮 La mentalité Evangélique face à la persécution et l'apocalypse

Le troisième paragraphe d'Alberta traite de la mentalité des Evangéliques face à la persécution et à la fin des temps. Il décrit comment la rhétorique de la fin imminente et la lutte contre un monde séculier corrompt est profondément ancrée dans la culture Evangélique. Alberta critique l'idée que les Evangéliques cherchent à se saisir du pouvoir politique pour protéger leurs valeurs, au lieu de suivre l'exemple de Christ qui a enseigné à souffrir et à pardonner. Il appelle à un retour aux principes fondamentaux du christianisme, qui sont souvent oubliés dans la quête de protection et de pouvoir.

Keywords

💡Évangélique

Évangélique fait référence à un sous-culture distinct au sein du protestantisme américain, caractérisé par la conviction que la Bible est le mot inspiré de Dieu et le devoir d'évangéliser. Dans le script, l'auteur Tim Alberta discute de l'évolution de ce terme, passant d'une connotation purement religieuse à une association politique, souvent avec des républicains conservateurs et des soutiens de Trump.

💡Moral Majority

Moral Majority est un mouvement politique conservateur des années 1980 aux États-Unis qui a influencé la définition d'être évangélique en y ajoutant une connotation politique. Dans le script, Alberta mentionne cette période comme le début où le terme 'évangélique' a commencé à prendre une signification politique.

💡Trump

Le nom de Trump est mentionné comme étant le candidat politique au pouvoir qui a reçu un soutien significatif de la part des évangéliques, malgré des actions et des déclarations qui pourraient être en contradiction avec les valeurs traditionnelles évangéliques. Cela soulève des questions sur la définition actuelle de l'évangelisation et des valeurs politiques.

💡Repentance

Repentance signifie le regret sincère des actions passées et le désir de changer. Le script mentionne que bien que les personnages bibliques aient été imparfaits, ils ont montré de la repentance et un désir de suivre Dieu, ce qui est en contraste avec la perception d'un certain nombre d'évangéliques qui voient Trump comme un choix divin sans nécessité de repentance.

💡Partisan Identity

L'identité partisane fait référence à l'allégeance politique qui influence les croyances et les actions d'un individu. Le script discute de la manière dont cette identité peut prendre le pas sur les principes religieux, conduisant à une forme d'idolâtrie politique où le soutien à Trump est perçu comme une question de foi plutôt que de conviction politique.

💡Roe v. Wade

Roe v. Wade est une décision de la Cour suprême des États-Unis qui a légalisé l'avortement dans le pays. Le script mentionne que bien que les évangéliques aient longtemps cherché à renverser cette décision, le succès de cette cause n'a pas entraîné une réduction de l'avortement, ce qui soulève des questions sur les stratégies politiques et les convictions morales.

💡Persecution

La persécution est l'acte de poursuivre ou de harceler quelqu'un à cause de ses croyances. Le script aborde la crainte des évangéliques d'être persécutés par un gouvernement perçu comme hostile aux valeurs chrétiennes, ce qui renforce leur besoin de se rallier à un leader politique fort.

💡End Times

Les temps finaux ou 'End Times' font référence à la période eschatologique prophétisée dans la Bible, marquée par des événements cataclysmiques et la fin du monde. Le script mentionne que cette croyance peut influencer la manière dont certains évangéliques perçoivent les défis politiques actuels et la nécessité de se préparer pour une confrontation finale.

💡Secular

Séculaire signifie lié au monde temporel et distinct de la sphère religieuse. Dans le script, le terme est utilisé pour décrire le monde extérieur perçu comme hostile aux valeurs évangéliques, renforçant ainsi le sentiment de besoin de protection et de combat pour les croyances.

💡Kingdom of God

Le Royaume de Dieu est une expression biblique qui fait référence à la règne divine et aux valeurs spirituelles. Le script discute de la manière dont certains évangéliques peuvent confondre le Royaume de Dieu avec des idéaux politiques terrestres, perdant de vue la nature spirituelle et non matérielle de ce royaume.

Highlights

24% of Americans are Evangelical Christians, and their movement has deep ties to conservative politics.

The term 'Evangelical' has evolved to include a political connotation, often associated with conservative white Republicans and Trump supporters.

The perception of Evangelicals as Trump supporters has damaged the credibility of their witness for Jesus Christ.

Author Tim Alberta's personal experience with the Evangelical community after criticizing Trump led to the writing of 'The Kingdom'.

Evangelicals view Trump as an agent of God, chosen for this moment, despite his moral shortcomings.

The Evangelical community's belief that their 'Judeo-Christian' America is under attack has led them to support Trump as a protector.

Trump's Supreme Court picks and potential overturning of Roe v. Wade are seen as a win for the Evangelical movement.

The Evangelical vote for Trump is not solely based on single issues like abortion but also on a perceived need for protection.

Evangelicals have put their faith in political power for 50 years, which has not resulted in the expected moral outcomes.

The fear of persecution among Evangelicals has led to a divide between those who turn to political power and those who follow Christ's path of grace.

The book 'The Kingdom' aims to remind Evangelicals of the true path of Jesus amidst the current political and religious climate.

Trump's continued support among white evangelicals, with 53% of their vote in the Iowa caucuses, despite other options.

The theological problem with viewing Trump as a chosen leader, when many biblical figures who were used by God repented and sought after God.

The idea that Trump might be a test for Evangelicals, to see if their convictions can withstand the idolatry of political partisanship.

The historical role of Christianity operating from the margins and not needing control of state power.

play00:00

so 24% of Americans are Evangelical

play00:03

Christians and a stunning new book peels

play00:07

back the curtain on the movement's

play00:09

divisions scandals and deep ties to the

play00:12

conservative politics please welcome the

play00:14

author of that book New York Times

play00:17

bestseller the kingdom the power and the

play00:21

glory American evangelicals in an age of

play00:27

extremism Tim Alberta

play00:34

yes it's a mouthful but my God the

play00:38

things it is a spectacular book it is

play00:40

just spectacular can you explain to

play00:42

people because I I don't think I

play00:44

understood and then the more I read I

play00:46

sort of was able to click in but

play00:49

Evangelical is a term that gets thrown

play00:51

around a lot but it seems to have

play00:54

different meanings to different people

play00:57

and how would you how do you define

play01:00

an Evangelical what is an Evangelical

play01:03

yeah well there's certainly been a an

play01:05

evolution with the definition over the

play01:07

past 50 or 60 years it was well

play01:09

understood in the 60s certainly in the

play01:11

70s to understand that this was a

play01:13

distinct subculture within American

play01:16

protestantism uh where folks truly

play01:19

believed that uh the Bible was the

play01:21

inspired word of God that it was not

play01:23

just a collection of writings about God

play01:25

but that in fact it was the word of God

play01:27

and that they had a responsibility then

play01:30

to take the gospel to the ends of the

play01:32

Earth and to evangelize that's the verb

play01:34

right I think what's started to happen

play01:36

certainly in the late 7s and then into

play01:38

the 80s in the Moral Majority era is

play01:41

that the term began to take on more and

play01:42

more of a political connotation and if

play01:45

you fast forward all the way to today

play01:47

you know for better or worse and I in my

play01:49

opinion it's for Worse the perception of

play01:52

what it means to be an Evangelical is a

play01:54

conservative white Republican Trump

play01:57

supporter and and the Damage Done to The

play02:00

credibility of the witness for Jesus

play02:02

Christ is profound because of that

play02:04

anyone who does not fit into that box is

play02:08

now uh you know they feel unwelcome and

play02:10

they feel they feel uh ostracized and

play02:14

and sort of um set aside by this

play02:16

movement and the ability to evangelize

play02:19

those people is now significantly

play02:21

diminished as a result well Tim you and

play02:24

I both grew up in the Evangelical Church

play02:26

and your story had so many parallels to

play02:28

my own um you know brief I had people

play02:31

who grew I grew up within the church who

play02:32

haven't spoken to me since I spoke out

play02:34

against Donald Trump family members who

play02:36

think I walked away from the faith

play02:37

because I walked away from Donald Trump

play02:39

um you tell a very compelling story

play02:41

about after your father passed can you

play02:44

tell me tell us that and what inspired

play02:46

you to write the book yes so I grew up

play02:48

as a as a PK a pastor's kid uh my dad

play02:50

was the the leader of a pretty large

play02:52

evangelical church outside of Detroit

play02:54

where we grew up and it just so happens

play02:57

that my first book came out right when

play03:00

he died in my first book as you know

play03:02

Alyssa I uh I took a took a pretty hard

play03:05

look at a number of your former bosses

play03:07

not just Donald Trump and uh and so when

play03:10

I went home for the funeral then because

play03:12

the book was in the news and because I

play03:14

was getting beat up by right-wing media

play03:16

over the book a lot of folks at the

play03:18

funeral were confrontational they were

play03:21

rather cold they were uh asking me if I

play03:24

was still a Christian because how could

play03:25

I be if I was criticizing Donald Trump

play03:28

um and so it was very ugly but it was

play03:30

also very eye openening and and and I

play03:31

would say galvanizing because I I think

play03:34

it was a moment where a problem that had

play03:36

been sort of abstract this radicalizing

play03:39

happening within the Evangelical

play03:41

movement which I had seen in my travels

play03:43

as a political reporter suddenly it was

play03:45

now very concrete and and really sort of

play03:48

threatening almost feeling as though

play03:50

listen if my home Church where I'd grown

play03:52

up since I was a toddler your father was

play03:54

the pastor my father was the pastor they

play03:56

know him right they they don't know

play03:58

Trump they know me they know him yeah so

play04:00

if they're willing to treat me this way

play04:01

while he's in a box 50 ft away then how

play04:04

are they treating the rest of the world

play04:06

right and that and that's that's the

play04:07

crisis that I decided I had to try to

play04:09

tackle so let let's go here how has he

play04:12

sinned let us count the ways Trump has

play04:15

paid off porn stars bragged on tape

play04:17

about grabbing women by their genitalia

play04:19

he's in court this week in a case

play04:21

involving involving alleged rape he

play04:24

calls his opponents Vermin right out of

play04:26

the Nazi Playbook he incited a riot on

play04:29

the Capital that left five people dead

play04:31

and yet he's posting this ad and playing

play04:34

it at rallies watch and on June 14th

play04:38

1946 God looked down on his planned

play04:40

paradise and said I need a caretaker so

play04:43

God gave us Trump God said I need

play04:46

somebody willing to get up before Dawn

play04:49

fix this country work all day fight the

play04:52

marxists eat supper then go to the Oval

play04:55

Office and stay past midnight at a

play04:57

meeting of the heads of state so God

play04:59

made Trump yes okay can we say blasphemy

play05:03

this is one of the most amoral and least

play05:05

religious men I have ever seen in

play05:08

politics for for for sure remember two

play05:11

Corinthians I thought that was the Bible

play05:13

upside down upside down but he's the de

play05:16

facto poster boy uh for these

play05:18

evangelicals that you're describing I'm

play05:20

assuming not all of them are in for him

play05:21

but the ones that you're talking about

play05:23

now what am I missing how do God-fearing

play05:25

people reconcile this with that okay so

play05:30

so there there's a lot to unpack let let

play05:32

me say this first and foremost um that

play05:35

that advertisement that video that's now

play05:37

being played at Trump's rallies it is

play05:39

speaking directly to a belief system now

play05:43

within the Evangelical world that Trump

play05:46

is God's man that he is chosen for this

play05:49

moment that he is an agent of the

play05:50

almighty and and the justification many

play05:52

people will use Joy is well listen God

play05:54

used flawed characters throughout the

play05:56

Bible nobody was perfect and yet he used

play05:59

them to advance his purposes I there are

play06:02

many theological problems with that one

play06:04

of which being that most of those people

play06:05

Moses David Peter Paul they all repented

play06:09

and they all had a heart that was after

play06:11

God's Own Jesus died for everyone yes so

play06:14

wait God chose him he also chose Putin

play06:18

Hitler himler musolini I could name a

play06:21

few that he chose also according to this

play06:23

Theory and let me be clear about this uh

play06:26

the qu the the question that is

play06:28

uncomfortable for a lot of folks to

play06:29

answer and and I have friends and family

play06:31

members in this camp and I want to be

play06:33

respectful when I say it they they

play06:34

believe that Trump was chosen for this

play06:36

moment to to to protect their kingdom

play06:39

here on Earth but have they entertained

play06:42

the possibility at least the possibility

play06:44

that Trump was actually chosen to test

play06:46

them in this moment and to see to see

play06:49

whether their beliefs their convictions

play06:52

as followers of Christ can withstand the

play06:54

sort of testing of national idolatry of

play06:59

of political uh partisan identity that

play07:03

has taken them further and further away

play07:04

from Christ and and turned Republican

play07:07

politics and trumpism into into an idol

play07:10

yeah and into a power play which was

play07:12

never about the power for the the

play07:13

individual it was always in the name of

play07:15

God and but um at the Iowa caucuses

play07:18

earlier this week Trump dominated with

play07:20

white evangelicals garnering 53% of

play07:22

their vote um now that's over 30 points

play07:25

higher than in 2016 Ronda santis had the

play07:27

endorsement of a hugely influen ual Iowa

play07:30

Evangelical uh Bob Vander plats um and

play07:34

Trump still got double disantis support

play07:37

so they're been off-ramps there have

play07:38

been options that were other than Donald

play07:41

Trump why didn't evangelicals throw

play07:43

their weight behind Des santis Mike

play07:46

Pence Tim Scott people with like much

play07:49

more legitimate religious Bona Bona

play07:51

feeds than Trump it's I mean it's a

play07:53

great question what we've seen here in

play07:55

the last eight years is is an incredible

play07:57

Arc from you you know back in 2016 it's

play08:00

well it's a binary choice he's the

play08:02

lesser of two evils I mean the funny

play08:03

thing is if you look at the Iowa results

play08:05

in 2016 Trump dominated among

play08:08

non-evangelicals but really struggled

play08:10

with evangelicals and that was actually

play08:12

the story of the entire primary Trump

play08:14

won the nomination in spite of

play08:16

significant resistance from evangelicals

play08:18

if you fast forward now eight years many

play08:20

of these same people feel guilty about

play08:22

having ever doubted him they view him as

play08:24

sort of a a deliverer for their

play08:26

community and I think it really all

play08:28

boils down to this idea that these folks

play08:31

view their country their judeo-christian

play08:34

idealized America as being under attack

play08:37

that that The Barbarians are at the

play08:39

gates and therefore they need a

play08:40

barbarian to protect them that is see as

play08:43

I have to say I'm Catholic and and I was

play08:45

so shook by that ad so I'm still a

play08:48

little out of sorts but um I thought

play08:51

that the Evangelical vote was trumps

play08:53

because he promised to get rid of roie

play08:55

Wade and I thought they were just one

play08:57

issue voters I had no idea idea that

play08:59

they thought he was the Messiah but um

play09:02

so this is shocking to me so Trump's

play09:05

Supreme Court picks overturning roie

play09:07

Wade after 50 years was really a massive

play09:11

win I thought for the Evangelical um

play09:14

movement but why would you stick with

play09:16

him after that what is he promising in a

play09:20

potential second term to to keep their

play09:23

support you know well let's I think I do

play09:26

but I'm scared of the answer okay let me

play09:27

let me say two things quickly to the

play09:30

premise there what's fascinating is that

play09:33

evangelicals put all their eggs in the

play09:35

political basket for 50 years to

play09:37

overturn roie Wade and they succeeded

play09:39

and the result is more abortions in

play09:41

America which raises an interesting

play09:43

question which is that if you believe as

play09:44

an Evangelical that life is made in the

play09:47

image of God and that therefore it

play09:48

deserves protection at every stage that

play09:51

if you believe that to your core that

play09:52

abortion is not a political issue it is

play09:54

an ethical moral spiritual issue yes

play09:57

then why have you why have you attempted

play10:01

to exercise raw political power on that

play10:04

issue on that issue right that so so I

play10:07

would say that first secondly I would

play10:08

say now if you understand the

play10:10

Evangelical mindset I grew up steeped in

play10:12

this rhetoric this messaging that the

play10:14

end is coming that we are approaching an

play10:16

imminent an IM imminent an imminent

play10:19

clash between the good God-fearing Bible

play10:21

believing Christians and the secular

play10:22

Wicked outside world which is by the way

play10:25

when covid-19 comes along and you have

play10:27

blue State Governors ordering churches

play10:28

to shut down everybody said well here we

play10:31

are the government's coming for us we

play10:32

knew this day would come so there is a

play10:34

pervasive fear in the Evangelical world

play10:38

that persecution is coming for them the

play10:40

the the problem with that there's a

play10:41

number of problems but the the key

play10:43

theological problem with that is that

play10:45

you look at the founding of Christianity

play10:47

Christianity has always operated from

play10:49

the margins it has never been about

play10:51

power it has never been about needing to

play10:53

control the levers of the state or

play10:55

Kingdoms in heaven not on Earth exactly

play10:56

Jesus said my kingdom is not of this

play10:58

world as he was is being led to his
