The Dominionist wackos in MAGA allied with Peter Thiel continue to spew falsehood

... Trae Stephens, a Thiel ally and self-proclaimed “arms dealer” who co-founded the drone warfare company Anduril (another warped Lord of the Rings reference), frames his work as part of a quest to “carry out God’s command to bring his Kingdom to earth as it is in Heaven.” Stephens’s wife, Michelle, co-founded ACTS 17 Collective (Acknowledging Christ in Technology and Society), which evangelizes to tech workers and is hosting Thiel’s Antichrist lectures. ...

More.

There is no such command.

Some Christians still understand that:

[Turning Point USA speaker] Leigh-Allyn Baker rallied her fellow parishioners at Conduit Church in Franklin, Tennessee, 20 miles south of the capital, to not let Charlie Kirk’s death be in vain.

In a video the church played for a service Sept. 14, Baker encouraged the audience to speak more boldly and publicly for their conservative values than ever before. ...

Conduit congregants welcomed Baker’s video with whoops, shouts and tears, signaling a shared grief. Among those congregants, one person wore a hat that read: “Pray hard, lift heavy, stay deadly.”

But Christians who are angry over Kirk’s death cannot be violent or retaliatory, [Conduit pastor Darren] Tyler said in his sermon.

“Some of you are angry. Some of you want revenge,” Tyler said. “The Bible speaks very clearly: ‘Vengeance is mine, says the Lord,’” Tyler said. “If you’re thinking about it, I’m rebuking you right now. We do not make Jesus king by force.” ...

Well of course LOL: New Apostolic Reformation wackos supporting Trump may be evolving into pro-immigrationistas

 Christianity has always meant liberalism. It is one of the religion's many bastard children.

This is from an Atlantic story reproduced here:

On the day after the election, I went to Life Center, the NAR church where Elon Musk had spoken a couple of weeks earlier. The mood was jubilant. A pastor spoke of “years of oppression” and said that “we are at a time on the other side of a victory for our nation that God alone—that God alone—orchestrated for us.”

The music pounded, and people cheered, and after that, a prominent prophet named Joseph Garlington delivered a sermon. He was a guest speaker, and he offered what sounded like the first hint of dissent I’d heard in a long time. He talked about undocumented immigrants and asked people to consider whether it might be possible that God was sending them to the U.S. so they could build the Kingdom.

“What if they are part of the harvest?” he said. “He didn’t send us to them; maybe he’s sending them to us.”

It was a striking moment. Life Center, Mercy Culture, and many other churches in the movement have large numbers of Latinos in their congregations.

Ted's a dominionist, so now we know what's the matter with Kansas (24 delegates)

And Idaho (20 delegates).

So lying Ted Cruz has been misrepresenting himself as a Southern Baptist when he's really a Pentecostal

And a pretty kooky Pentecostal at that:

While Ted Cruz proudly proclaims he is an Evangelical Christian, his campaign takes pains to hide the truth that Cruz and his pastor father, Rafael Cruz are Pentecostal Christians, a fact further hidden by having Ted and Heidi Cruz’s belong to the congregation of First Baptist Church, a Southern Baptist church in Houston, as their home church. ...

Rafael Cruz is a pastor with Purifying Fire International Ministry, although in January 2014, as Ted Cruz was preparing his presidential swing, Rafael Cruz scrapped the group’s website after various blogs began identifying the ministry as rooted in “a radical Christian ideology known as Dominionism or Christian Reconstructionism.”

Dominionism calls on anointed Christian leaders to take over government to make the laws of the nation in accordance with Biblical laws. Rafael Cruz, at the Pastor Larry Huch’s New Beginnings mega-church in Bedford Texas, outside Dallas, on Aug. 26, 2012, in a Dominionist sermon proclaimed his son, Ted Cruz, to be the “anointed one,” a Dominionist Messiah who would bring God’s law to reign.
