NewSurprised someone like French

Surprised someone like French would potential advocate for this. Dominion theology/postmil stuff seems to be making a resurgence.

It’s unclear to me the difference between the dominion idea and the influence concept. I wonder if the view is still “Christ won’t return until we do this.”
