The book "Another Gospel" by Joel Looper is a thought-provoking exploration of the dangers of Christian nationalism and its impact on the identity of evangelicalism. In this book, Looper challenges his fellow evangelicals to reconsider their priorities and resist the temptation to prioritize nationalism over the universal Church. Through a thorough analysis of Scripture, church history, and current events in the United States and Russia, he exposes the distortions of theology perpetuated by Christian nationalists and offers a fresh perspective on the traditional Christian vision of community. Looper begins by highlighting the urgent message of Paul's letter to the Galatians, who were demanding the circumcision of gentile converts as a prerequisite for salvation. He argues that this rigid adherence to the old law was a departure from the true gospel of Christ and that many contemporary Christians have fallen into the same trap of prioritizing nationalism over the Church. He contends that Christian nationalism has colonized American evangelicalism, leading to a false gospel that undermines the very essence of Christianity. The author then delves into the dangers of this false gospel, demonstrating how it can supplant the Church as the primary allegiance of Christians. He emphasizes the need for a different kind of community, one drawn together by the Holy Spirit rather than nationalistic ideologies. This community is based on love, acceptance, and unity, rather than division and exclusivity.
Книга «Другое Евангелие» Джоэла Лупера - это наводящее на размышления исследование опасностей христианского национализма и его влияния на идентичность евангеликализма. В этой книге Лупер бросает вызов своим коллегам-евангелистам, чтобы они пересмотрели свои приоритеты и не поддались искушению поставить национализм выше вселенской Церкви. Посредством тщательного анализа Священного Писания, церковной истории и текущих событий в США и России он разоблачает искажения теологии, увековеченные христианскими националистами, и предлагает свежий взгляд на традиционное христианское видение общины. Лупер начинает с того, что подчеркивает срочное послание Павла галатам, которые требовали обрезания новообращенных язычников в качестве предпосылки для спасения. Он утверждает, что эта жесткая приверженность старому закону была отступлением от истинного Евангелия Христа и что многие современные христиане попали в ту же ловушку, отдавая приоритет национализму перед Церковью. Он утверждает, что христианский национализм колонизировал американский евангеликализм, что привело к ложному евангелию, которое подрывает саму суть христианства. Затем автор углубляется в опасности этого ложного Евангелия, демонстрируя, как оно может вытеснить Церковь как первичную преданность христиан. Он подчеркивает необходимость иного рода сообщества, объединяемого Духом Святым, а не националистическими идеологиями. Это сообщество основано на любви, принятии и единстве, а не на разделении и исключительности.
livre « L'autre évangile » de Joel Luper est une étude réfléchie des dangers du nationalisme chrétien et de son impact sur l'identité de l'évangélisme. Dans ce livre, Luper récuse ses collègues évangélistes pour qu'ils revoient leurs priorités et ne cèdent pas à la tentation de placer le nationalisme au-dessus de l'Église universelle. Par une analyse minutieuse des Saintes Écritures, de l'histoire de l'Église et des événements actuels aux États-Unis et en Russie, il expose les déformations de la théologie perpétuées par les nationalistes chrétiens et offre une vision nouvelle de la vision chrétienne traditionnelle de la communauté. Luper commence par souligner le message urgent de Paul aux Galates, qui exigeaient la circoncision des nouveaux païens convertis comme condition préalable au salut. Il affirme que cet attachement acharné à l'ancienne loi était une dérogation au véritable évangile du Christ et que de nombreux chrétiens modernes sont tombés dans le même piège en donnant la priorité au nationalisme devant l'Église. Il affirme que le nationalisme chrétien a colonisé l'évangélisme américain, ce qui a conduit à un faux évangile qui sape l'essence même du christianisme. L'auteur S'enfonce ensuite dans les dangers de ce faux évangile, montrant comment il peut supplanter L'Église comme la dévotion primaire des chrétiens. Il souligne la nécessité d'une communauté différente, unie par l'Esprit Saint et non par des idéologies nationalistes. Cette communauté est basée sur l'amour, l'acceptation et l'unité, et non sur la séparation et l'exclusivité.
libro Otro Evangelio de Joel Looper es un estudio reflexivo sobre los peligros del nacionalismo cristiano y su influencia en la identidad del evangelicalismo. En este libro, Luper desafía a sus compañeros evangelistas para que reconsideren sus prioridades y no cedan a la tentación de situar al nacionalismo por encima de la Iglesia universal. A través de un cuidadoso análisis de la Sagrada Escritura, la historia eclesiástica y los acontecimientos actuales en los Estados Unidos y Rusia, expone las distorsiones de la teología perpetuadas por los nacionalistas cristianos y ofrece una visión fresca de la visión cristiana tradicional de la comunidad. Looper comienza subrayando el mensaje urgente de Pablo a los gálatas, que exigían la circuncisión de los gentiles conversos como requisito previo para la salvación. Afirma que este compromiso duro con la antigua ley fue un retroceso del verdadero Evangelio de Cristo y que muchos cristianos modernos cayeron en la misma trampa, dando prioridad al nacionalismo ante la Iglesia. Afirma que el nacionalismo cristiano colonizó el evangelicalismo estadounidense, lo que llevó a un falso evangelio que socava la esencia misma del cristianismo. autor profundiza entonces en los peligros de este falso Evangelio, demostrando cómo puede desplazar a la Iglesia como devoción primaria de los cristianos. Subraya la necesidad de otro tipo de comunidad, unida por el Espíritu Santo y no por ideologías nacionalistas. Esta comunidad se basa en el amor, la aceptación y la unidad, no en la separación y la exclusividad.
Il libro «L'altro vangelo» di Joel Luper è uno studio riflessivo sui pericoli del nazionalismo cristiano e sulla sua influenza sull'identità dell'evangelicalismo. In questo libro, Luper sfida i suoi colleghi evangelici affinché riesaminino le loro priorità e non cedano alla tentazione di mettere il nazionalismo al di sopra della Chiesa universale. Attraverso un'attenta analisi della Sacra Scrittura, della storia della Chiesa e degli eventi in corso negli Stati Uniti e in Russia, espone le distorsioni della teologia immortalate dai nazionalisti cristiani e offre una visione recente della tradizionale visione cristiana della comunità. Luper inizia sottolineando il messaggio urgente di Paolo alle galate che chiedevano la circoncisione dei nuovi pagani come condizione per la salvezza. Egli sostiene che questa stretta adesione alla vecchia legge è stata una deroga al vero vangelo di Cristo e che molti cristiani moderni sono caduti nella stessa trappola, dando priorità al nazionalismo rispetto alla Chiesa. Egli sostiene che il nazionalismo cristiano ha colonizzato l'evangelicalismo americano, portando a un vangelo falso che mina l'essenza stessa del cristianesimo. Poi l'autore si approfondisce nel pericolo di questo falso vangelo, dimostrando come possa espellere la Chiesa come la devozione primaria dei cristiani. Sottolinea la necessità di una comunità diversa, unita dallo Spirito Santo, piuttosto che dalle ideologie nazionaliste. Questa comunità si basa sull'amore, l'accettazione e l'unità, non sulla condivisione e l'esclusività.
Das Buch „Das andere Evangelium“ von Joel Looper ist eine suggestive Untersuchung der Gefahren des christlichen Nationalismus und seiner Auswirkungen auf die Identität des Evangelikalismus. In diesem Buch fordert Looper seine evangelikalen Kollegen heraus, ihre Prioritäten zu überdenken und der Versuchung zu widerstehen, den Nationalismus über die universale Kirche zu stellen. Durch eine gründliche Analyse der Heiligen Schrift, der Kirchengeschichte und der aktuellen Ereignisse in den USA und Russland enthüllt es die Verzerrungen der Theologie, die von christlichen Nationalisten verewigt wurden, und bietet einen frischen Blick auf die traditionelle christliche Vision der Gemeinschaft. Looper beginnt mit der Betonung des dringenden Briefes des Paulus an die Galater, die die Beschneidung der konvertierten Heiden als Voraussetzung für die Erlösung forderten. Er argumentiert, dass dieses harte Festhalten am alten Gesetz eine Abweichung vom wahren Evangelium Christi war und dass viele moderne Christen in die gleiche Falle tappten, indem sie dem Nationalismus Vorrang vor der Kirche einräumten. Er behauptet, der christliche Nationalismus habe den amerikanischen Evangelikalismus kolonisiert, was zu einem falschen Evangelium geführt habe, das das Wesen des Christentums untergrabe. Der Autor geht dann auf die Gefahren dieses falschen Evangeliums ein und zeigt, wie es die Kirche als primäre Hingabe der Christen verdrängen kann. Er betont die Notwendigkeit einer anderen Art von Gemeinschaft, die durch den Heiligen Geist und nicht durch nationalistische Ideologien vereint wird. Diese Gemeinschaft basiert auf Liebe, Akzeptanz und Einheit, nicht auf Trennung und Exklusivität.

Joel Looper'ın Öteki İncil'i, Hristiyan milliyetçiliğinin tehlikeleri ve bunun evanjelizmin kimliği üzerindeki etkisi üzerine düşündürücü bir çalışmadır. Bu kitapta Looper, diğer evanjeliklerini önceliklerini yeniden gözden geçirmeye ve milliyetçiliği evrensel Kilise'nin önüne koyma cazibesine direnmeye çağırıyor. Kutsal yazıların, kilise tarihinin ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ve Rusya'daki güncel olayların dikkatli bir şekilde analiz edilmesiyle, Hıristiyan milliyetçiler tarafından sürdürülen teolojinin çarpıtmalarını ortaya koyuyor ve topluluğun geleneksel Hıristiyan vizyonuna yeni bir bakış açısı sunuyor. Looper, Pavlus'un kurtuluşun ön şartı olarak Gentile dönüşümlerinin sünnetini talep eden Galatyalılara acil mesajını vurgulayarak başlar. Eski yasaya bu katı bağlılığın, Mesih'in gerçek müjdesinden bir ayrılma olduğunu ve birçok modern Hristiyanın, milliyetçiliği Kilise'ye öncelik verme tuzağına düştüğünü savunuyor. Hristiyan milliyetçiliğinin Amerikan evanjelizmini kolonileştirdiğini ve Hristiyanlığın özünü baltalayan sahte bir müjde ile sonuçlandığını savunuyor. Yazar daha sonra bu sahte müjdenin tehlikelerini araştırır ve Hıristiyanların birincil bağlılığı olarak Kilise'nin yerini nasıl alabileceğini gösterir. Milliyetçi ideolojilerden ziyade Kutsal Ruh tarafından birleştirilen farklı bir tür topluluğa duyulan ihtiyacı vurgular. Bu topluluk sevgi, kabul ve birliğe dayanır, bölünme ve münhasırlık değil.
الإنجيل الآخر لجويل لوبر هو دراسة مثيرة للتفكير حول مخاطر القومية المسيحية وتأثيرها على هوية الإنجيلية. في هذا الكتاب، يتحدى لوبر زملائه الإنجيليين لإعادة النظر في أولوياتهم ومقاومة إغراء وضع القومية قبل الكنيسة العالمية. من خلال التحليل الدقيق للكتاب المقدس وتاريخ الكنيسة والأحداث الجارية في الولايات المتحدة وروسيا، فإنه يكشف تشوهات اللاهوت التي يديمها القوميون المسيحيون ويقدم منظورًا جديدًا للرؤية المسيحية التقليدية للمجتمع. يبدأ لوبر بالتأكيد على رسالة بولس العاجلة إلى الغلاطيين، الذين طالبوا بختان المتحولين إلى جنتيل كشرط أساسي للخلاص. يجادل بأن هذا الالتزام الصارم بالقانون القديم كان خروجًا عن إنجيل المسيح الحقيقي وأن العديد من المسيحيين المعاصرين وقعوا في نفس فخ إعطاء الأولوية للقومية على الكنيسة. يجادل بأن القومية المسيحية استعمرت الإنجيلية الأمريكية، مما أدى إلى إنجيل كاذب يقوض جوهر المسيحية. ثم يتعمق المؤلف في مخاطر هذا الإنجيل الكاذب، موضحًا كيف يمكن أن يحل محل الكنيسة باعتباره الإخلاص الأساسي للمسيحيين. ويؤكد على الحاجة إلى نوع مختلف من المجتمع، يجمعه الروح القدس، بدلاً من الأيديولوجيات القومية. يقوم هذا المجتمع على الحب والقبول والوحدة وليس الانقسام والتفرد.
