    A Better Allegiance EP4: Are We Choosing Barabbas Again?

    Send us Fan Mail In this powerful and deeply convicting episode of A Better Allegiance, Robert tackles one of the most difficult conversations the Church must face right now: what happens when political loyalty begins to resemble spiritual devotion? Using recent events—including the controversy surrounding an AI-generated image depicting the president in Christ-like imagery, escalating tensions with Iran, and the growing use of end-times prophecy to justify political conflict—this episode asks a hard but necessary question: Are we choosing Barabbas again? Drawing from Revelation 13, 2 Thessalonians 2, Matthew 24, and the Gospel account of Barabbas, Robert challenges believers to examine whether allegiance to power, party, and personality has begun to replace allegiance to Jesus Christ. This episode also revisits one of the foundational themes of A Better Allegiance: the importance of the separation of church and state, and why the erosion of that boundary is spiritually dangerous for the witness of the Church. This is not an episode about telling you how to vote. It is an episode about asking who truly sits on the throne of your heart. If faith is being used to sanctify power, justify war, or rush toward prophecy, then the Church must pause and ask whether we are following Christ—or simply defending the version of power we have made peace with. A bold conversation on idolatry, discernment, prophecy, peacemaking, and what it means to remain faithful in a divided age. Christ alone is King. Support the show
