The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
Genesis 6:11, 13 (KJV)
(Note: This column was written before the results of the mid-term elections were known.)
The Creator-God who destroyed the Noahic antediluvian world made it clear that the primary reason for the colossal destruction of the universal flood on the earth was due to the gravest abomination that the nations of men can commit—the national sin most odious to God, the corrupt wickedness most hated by God: violence, the excessive, pervasive murder of our fellow human beings, the unrestrained immoral wars of aggression......
While Barack Obama and Joe Biden did nothing to reverse America’s bloodlust (especially Biden, who led America into a genocidal partnership with the most demonic, bloodthirsty, murderous man in the 21st century, Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu), neither of these men had endeared themselves to evangelical Christians. In truth, the wars of Obama and Biden were the one thing that evangelicals actually liked about these two Democrats.
Enter Donald Trump.
Trump will go down in history as the greatest warmonger of the early 21st century. He will also go down in history as the U.S. president most controlled by a foreign government (Israel).
But the greatest disaster of Donald Trump is that he drug the vast majority of evangelicals (approximately 80% of them) into the hell of war with him. He turned peacemakers into warmongers.
Obviously, a tectonic shift of this nature doesn’t happen overnight or even in twenty-six years. It has been germinating since, well, since 1948, when the State of Zionist Israel came into existence. And, actually, it began in 1909 when Cyrus Scofield published the Zionist-inspired and Zionist-financed Scofield Reference Bible. But it took the advent of the Zionist state in 1948 to bring Scofieldism to cult status, especially after 1967 and the Israeli war of aggression against its Arab neighbors that historians call The Six-Day War.
Israel’s victory in that war cemented its “chosen people” status in the hearts and minds of evangelicals. And even Israel’s attempted sinking of the USS Liberty, killing 34 U.S. Sailors and Marines and wounding 70% of the ship’s crew, would not be enough to awaken evangelicals to the demonic nature of the Zionist state.
Therefore, by the time G.W. Bush came along, evangelicals were already Christian Zionists. But Bush made them Christian Zionist warmongers. And now Donald Trump has turned Christian Zionist warmongers into Christian Zionist Nationalist warmongers. And uber warmongers, at that.
Christian Zionist White Nationalist Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth wears his warmongering soul in Crusader tattoos all over his body for all to see. That Trump would pick such a warmongering bigot as America’s Secretary of Defense is a visible testament to the warmongering heart of Donald Trump.
And, of course, Trump’s continuance of the U.S. proxy war in Ukraine and his partnership of the genocides in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon, and his wars of aggression against Yemen and Iran have proven to the entire world that he is a demonic, Zionist-controlled warmonger of the highest (or lowest, depending on how you use the term) order.
Let me be clear. The problem is not that Bush and Trump were warmongers. Many U.S. presidents in both parties throughout the 20th century were warmongers. The problem is that Bush and especially Trump wrapped themselves in the Christian flag and had the almost universal support of evangelical Christians.
THAT’S the problem!
Even nominal Christians and people of no faith looked to Jesus’ teachings of love, joy and peace as a beacon of hope. Most people in evangelical churches didn’t begin life in a Christian home (many did, of course). Most of them came to Christ during a time of personal crisis or grief or disorientation. Most men must come to the end of themselves in order to find Christ. The point is, when that moment came, they were ready to accept Christ for themselves, because in their subconscious, they believed that the message of Christ was a loving, hopeful message.
Bush and especially Trump turned Christ’s message of love, joy and peace into a message of bombs, hate and death. And people by the millions have been walking away from the evangelical/Zionist version of Christianity ever since.
If the report above is accurate and 100,000 evangelical churches close during the next decade, that will equate to almost one-third of all the evangelical churches in the country. ONE-THIRD!
How far will this go before evangelicals fall out of love with WAR? The answer to that question will determine how soon evangelicalism falls back in favor with peace-loving people (which most people by nature are), churched and unchurched.
