This fake evangelical minister is an
excellent example of why it is time to Make Inquisition Great Again. He's what
they used to call a "marrano" in Spain. Notice how what he is
preaching just happens to produce exactly the same sort of self-derailing
consequences as a) the political Mark Levins preaching atomic individualism, b)
the psychiatric Jordan Petersons preaching atomic individualism, and c) the
conservative Ben Shapiros preaching atomic individualism.
Rev. Rob Schenck, a prominent evangelical minister and founding president
of the Dietrich Bonhoeffer Institute, said Tuesday that evangelical Christians
"sold" their principles in supporting President Trump and called for
a return to the message of the Gospel.
"The justification for support of Trump is he is seen as Cyrus, a megalomaniac mass murderer, so I guess that qualifies," said Schenck at a luncheon in Washington, D.C., for his new book Costly Grace. "It’s the ends justifying the means. We support this ungodly character with massive flaws so we can get what he’s giving us. We did a deal with Donald Trump. We sold our principles if not our souls to get a laundry list of promises."
In his book, Schenck discusses his 1970s conversion from nominal Judaism to Christianity and his subsequent 1980s political activism as a "leader of the most extreme wing of the anti-abortion movement."
In the preface to Costly Grace, Schenck writes about rediscovering the life and writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, an evangelical German pastor and spy who was hanged in an extermination camp near the end of World War II because of his opposition to Adolf Hitler. Schenck writes that he felt Bonhoeffer's time reflects our own.
"My thesis was simple: For American evangelicals, the lines between theology and politics have become blurred, eroding the boundaries that distinguish the spiritual from the temporal, generating confusion among many believers about their Christian and political identities, exposing them to the temptation of political idolatry," he said. "What had happened to the German Christians was happening to us."
Schenck now leads the Dietrich Bonhoeffer Institute, a nonprofit institution that seeks to apply Bonhoeffer's theological and ethical insights to the social concerns of modern times, through lectures, discussions, and published material. Since his discovery of Bonhoeffer, he now tries to "liberate the evangelical community from a politicized gospel and to urge partisan conservatives to move beyond social battles and forsake the politics of hate, fear, and violence," according to his book. Describing his current political views during the meeting, he said, “I have far more in common with my mainline brothers and the Episcopal bishop of Washington."

I have no doubt at
all that Schenck has everything in common with them. It's much more likely that
this prominent guy, this eminent personage, is a Satan-worshipping globalist
than a genuine Christian. Literally everything these infiltrators do is focused
on convincing Christians, conservatives, Americans, nationalists, and whites to
unilaterally disarm so they can be conquered by their enemies.
Schenck also spoke out against American evangelicals' "embrace of the
popular gun culture." To illustrate his point, he pulled out a Bible that
doubled as a gun holster, as gasps erupted from the crowd. "How did we go
for our reverence for the Second Commandment and replace that with reverence
for the Second Amendment?" Schenck said.
Literally EVERYTHING. Hey, the God-Emperor has
already promised us Space Marines, so it can't be too much longer until he
gives us Inquisition and Crusade as well.
