One Nation Under…

The Republican evangelical Christian base dream of a Christian nation, but not just any Christian religion but only the far-right Christian.

The Republican vice presidential nominee will attend an event in Monroeville, Pennsylvania, on Saturday hosted by The Lance Wallnau Show.

Wallnau is a one of the leaders of the New Apostolic Reformation, or NAR, a sect of evangelical Christianity devoted to proselytizing the Seven Mountain Mandate, referring to the seven aspects of society—government, family, religion, arts and entertainment, media, education, and business—that its followers are meant to influence with their faith so that Christians can hold dominion over the world.

Unsurprisingly, he’s adamantly pro–Donald Trump.

Wallnau has been associated with Trump’s campaign since at least January 2024, when he announced his “Courage Tour” in collaboration with the far-right youth organization Turning Point USA, another group hoping to flesh out Trump’s lackluster ground game.

You will not see them talking about this on the evening news but rather it is on the right-wing pundits talk shows. World and Way wrote,

Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance took the stage at Christian Nationalist preacher Lance Wallnau’s election-season revival tour on Saturday (Sept. 28), using the setting to make a theological defense of the GOP campaign’s controversial immigration policies and to appeal to Wallnau’s conservative Christian crowd in a hotly contested swing state.

Seated for an interview with Pastor Jason Howard, who leads Sanctuary, a church nearby, Vance brought up his campaign’s restrictive stance on immigration while answering a string of questions about policy and his faith.

Citing a “Christian idea that you owe the strongest duty to your family,” Vance said Christian leaders should likewise be concerned first about protecting their country, not citizens of other nations. “It doesn’t mean that you have to be mean to other people, but it means that your first duty as an American leader is to the people of your own country,” said Vance, a Roman Catholic.

I am not a religious person but I remember my catechism classes that Jesus taught love not animosity.

They want to make us an evangelical Christian nation… no Congregationalists, no Episcopalians, no Universalist, just evangelicals.

Vote Blue, vote Harris/Walz, vote Blue to keep religion out of government. vote to keep us from becoming the new Iran, or Afghanistan, or Saudi Arabia.
