#Evangelicals, of course, talk fluently about evil, but (empirically speaking) they have become the most evil religious group in America. One goal of any morally serious religion must be to oppose the evil of Christo-fascism.
Happy Passion Friday to all who oppose Christo-fascism!
And a big FUCK YOU to all Christo-fascists out there: if you don't repent of that evil, the world will be a better place because of your death.

Rather than boosting cohesion through a more universal spiritual uplift, they say, the new approach violates the #Constitution & undermines the bonds of mutual #respect between #troops that are essential, especially in #wartime.
Every month at the #Pentagon, #Hegseth hosts #evangelical worship services that #legal experts say are unprecedented.

Why Evangelicals Support #Authoritarianism
Why are #evangelicals still supporting Trump’s #authoritarian takeover? The answer is unsettling: in #evangelical culture, #control is often framed as love.
"In this video, I unpack how authoritarianism has been rebranded as “protection,” “discipline,” and even “#godly love.”

Good ol #Christofascism. AKA:
The #SevenMountainMandate, also Seven Mountains Mandate, #7M, #7MM, or Seven Mountains #Dominionism, is a #dominionist #conservative #Christian movement within #evangelical #Christianity, particularly independent Charismatic groups. It holds that there are seven aspects of society that believers seek to dominate: #family, #religion, #education, #media, #arts and #entertainment, #business, and #government.

Why should those who are #Reformed & #evangelical insist on the importance of #liturgical #worship ?
Because:
1) Worship is always presented as liturgical in the #Bible
2) Liturgical worship is the historic/universal form of the Church’s worship.
3) Liturgical worship is #sacramental - it presents the Gospel not only via the word, but also through the #sacraments ordained by God - and as such it is more faithfully biblical.
4) ALL the magisterial reformers worshipped liturgically.
5) Biblically shaped liturgy is missionally oriented - it shapes the worshipper for/towards #mission .
6) Liturgy is formative of “sticky” #faith : a) because it engages a person’s whole being, it tends to reinforce faith wholistically (not merely intellectually), b) because it is is sacramental the person TANGIBLY encounters God’s #grace , c) because historic liturgy is robustly biblical it soaks the person in Scripture, and d) because it is patterned/repetitive it becomes engrained. -

John #Hagee is the founder and leader of
🔸Christians United for Israel, 🔸
which boasts 10 million members
-- more than the total population of American Jews.
#CUI was founded in 2006 after the publication of Hagee’s book “Jerusalem Countdown,”
which asserts that a U.S.-Israel war against Iran is both biblically prophesied and necessary to bring about the battle of #Armageddon and the Second Coming.
Two years later, John McCain rejected Hagee’s endorsement in the 2008 presidential campaign, after a sermon of Hagee’s surfaced describing Hitler as fulfilling God's will by hastening the return of Jews to Israel.
But Hagee is just one figure in the still-poorly-understood #Christian #dominionist movement that’s supporting Trump and MAGA Republicans in general.
Their goal is to remake America into a right-wing Christian #theocracy.Canadian scholar André Gagné’s recent book “American Evangelicals for Trump: Dominion, Spiritual Warfare, and the End Times” does much to explain the #evangelical wing of that movement, known as the
🔸New Apostolic Reformation🔸, drawing on its own own words.
Three high-profile NAR leaders
— Lance #Wallnau, Paula #White-#Cain and Dutch #Sheets
— were intimately involved in bringing Trump to power,
supporting him and then
fighting to keep him in power after the 2020 election.
They're just the tip of the iceberg.
Since 2020, Gen. Michael #Flynn, Trump’s short-lived national security adviser, has been a co-leader of the
“ReAwaken America Tour,”
which is connected to multiple NAR figures, as Jennifer Cohn reported in 2022.
Just this month, Salon contributor Frederick Clarkson of Political Research Associates reported on Wallnau’s latest political venture, dubbed the
“Courage Tour,” which targets 19 counties that “are going to determine the future of America.”

y'all have homework: it's imperative everybody learns about the #antisemitism #racism and #colonialism under-pinning #ChristianZionism.
gave y'all some easy articles cuz am not sure y'all are ready to know about the NUCLEAR #HOLOCAUST some branches of this #evangelical #Dominionist movement cannot wait to detonate.
yes, there are evangelicals that see the #Apocalypse as a nuclear holocaust that will wipe out all who don't see them as celestial beings; including other christians.

What #Katie #Britt’s misleading, melodramatic speech revealed about the Republican Party
The question for the #evangelical #voters who make up much of the Republican base is
-- how much more politics can #outweigh #morals in the name of whatever conservatism even means anymore?Politico reported Monday that an evangelical group is 🔸spending north of $60 million🔸 to get a twice-impeached, repeatedly indicted former president back in the White House,
so perhaps that is our answer.The whole “moral majority” movement in conservative politics always involved #theatrics and #cosplay.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene took it to a new level by deploying Hunter Biden’s sexting photos during a House committee hearing.
And now the future of the Republican Party is sitting in a kitchen purporting to speak honestly with voters of faith while telling a lurid lie for political purposes.

#Russia #Expropriates Property of #Protestant, other, #Churches in #Ukraine:
"The #occupiers took over the premises of the community of the local #church of #Evangelical #Christian #Baptists in one of the cities on the TOT. Even during the war, the aforementioned community engaged in volunteering, in particular helping #refugees from #Mariupol.
Now the Russians are setting up another #military facility there.
It is worth noting that this policy of #oppressing other #denominations is aimed at TOT and applies to all churches, except for the pocket Russian Orthodox Church, which is controlled by the #Kremlin."
