Some court evangelicals are still on board the sinking ship

John Fea   |  November 16, 2020

Some of the court evangelicals are growing quiet as the Trump administration transitions (officially or not) into the Biden administration. But others are still fired-up.

Jack Graham looks like he has finally come to grips with the reality of this election. We are now living in “desperate hopelessness”:

So very sad to see the dark and desperate hopelessness in America. Yet we have the message that turns night into day and death to life. Jesus calls us for times like these. Say yes I will be His Light.

— Jack Graham (@jackngraham) November 17, 2020

Jack Graham calls Raphael Warnock, candidate for the U.S. Senate from Georgia, a “false teacher” based on this clip. Wow! But I am sure Graham believes Trumpism is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy. (Philippians 4:8).

False teachers are as Jude says ‘Clouds without water swept along with the winds’v12 https://t.co/4s0F0j2fZi

Is Tony Perkins sending a message to evangelical Biden voters?:

“Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come & rain righteousness upon you. You have plowed iniquity; you have reaped injustice; you have eaten the fruit of lies…” Hosea 10:12-13

Gary Bauer actually believes there were 1 million Trump supporters in Washington D.C. this weekend:

More than one Million and I can say without hesitation that no US flag will be burned and no businesses will be trashed. #MillionMAGAMarch #MarchForTrump #MillionMAGAMarch2020 #MAGA @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/BEdZJn1vaU

Yesterday on Parler, Eric Metaxas wrote, “Trump has won the election. It’s only a matter of time before everyone accepts that. Be patient and pray!: He shared this article from The Epoch Times.

Metaxas is devoting his whole show today to a Lou Dobbs interview with Trump and Michael Flynn lawyer Sidney Powell. Metaxas is describing this conspiracy theory about voting machines as a “Second American Revolution.”

Jim Garlow is still doing election fraud prayer meetings:

Next GLOBAL PRAYER FOR ELECTION INTEGRITY/ PRAYER AGAINST ELECTION FRAUD – Wed, Nov 18, 2020-6pm Pacific; 7pm Mountain, 8pm Central, 9pm Eastern. Join thousands from praying for righteousness, holiness, justice &truth to prevail. Register now. https://t.co/XePBMIOUDa

— Jim Garlow (@JimGarlow) November 16, 2020

Garlow is also rallying the troops. Here is what he wrote today on his Facebook page:

Praise God for pastors who have guts. Who act like real leaders! Who have courage. Who obey God rather than man, when man defies God. In CA, PRAISE GOD for pastors like Jack Hibbs, Rob McCoy, Jeremy H. McGarity, Shane N Morgan Idleman, Jurgen Matthesius, John McArthur, Art Hodges and others.

STAND WITH THESE PASTORS. THEY ARE STANDING FOR YOU. NOW, YOU STAND WITH THEM. SUPPORT THEM. ATTEND CHURCHES WHERE PASTORS HAVE COURAGE TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT. List other pastors here who you know who are doing what is right – holding indoor, in person services – not walking in fear – who know when the govt is manipulating the culture – and are willing to love God over being “politically correct” wimps!

List other pastors who are NOT, NOT kowtowing to despotic, totalitarian leadership. Support these pastors!

(NOTE: Because of my age & weight, I take Covid seriously. Very seriously! I not scoff at the disease. I know people who have died from Covid. And two of my friends ALMOST died. I am careful. Very careful. But I don’t accept the dishonest manipulation of the numbers & the hysteria.)

The entire population should NOT be locked down because some of us (15% or so?) have vulnerabilities or comorbidites. People like me can stay at home. But NOT the entire population! That is ludicrous. The lockdowns are NOT about the disease. It is because the radical Leftist-Dem-Progressives are drunk on power. They are inebriated on their authoritarianism. And it is morally, ethically, biblically and legally wrong.

Garlow also posted a letter from Mike Huckabee to Joe Biden:

Dear Vice President Biden,

While I’ve never made any secret of the fact that I support President Trump, I have tried to be fair and stick to the issues. I even defended you on my TV program from an early personal attack, so I hope you will see that I’m not addressing you now as a partisan. It’s vitally important to put the good of the nation ahead of politics, particularly at a time like this, when events are at a tipping point and could easily spin out of control. I think you understand the need to be very cautious, from your reluctance to heed some of your supporters’ calls to declare victory.

In that spirit, I am calling on you to put partisanship and political ambition aside and join President Trump in demanding an impartial investigation into the very disturbing allegations of voter irregularities and fraud in Tuesday’s election.

Surely you must realize that some of the election officials’ actions and unbelievable poll results (202% turnout? Stacks of ballots that were 100% for you?) stink like a boxcar full of shrimp in the Mojave. If you do prevail without resolving these issues, your Administration will go down in history with a permanent black mark of cheating on it, whether it’s true or not. Imagine what you would say if, in a close state, 130,000 ballots all marked for Trump were suddenly dropped off from a Ferrari in the dead of night, as has been alleged in Detroit.

You ran for office on a promise to be a healer and uniter; to be a President of all the people, even those who didn’t support you; and to restore honor, integrity and honesty to the White House. Do you really think that’s likely if you take power under this dark cloud of suspicion? Even after 60 years, the memory of JFK’s legacy is still stained by a mere accusation of mob-stuffed ballot boxes securing his victory.

Also, think back on how much grief your side has given President Trump for the past four years, with the constant attacks and attempts to block his every action. The “resistance” movement justified its rabid opposition by claiming Trump was an “illegitimate” President, on no other grounds than that he didn’t win the popular vote (which, having run yourself three times, you know is meaningless) and “Russian collusion,” for which not a scrap of evidence could be found.

Now, imagine dealing with over 63 million furious Trump supporters and a GOP Senate (and after 2022, possibly a GOP House) who have a very convincing case that the race and their right to choose their own leaders were stolen from them. Their “resistance” will make what Trump dealt with look like a cake walk. These aren’t just some underemployed sociology majors. They’re the people who actually make the country run: farmers, ranchers, truckers, firefighters, police and construction workers.

If you really want to prove that you will bring honesty and integrity to the White House, and that you will represent all Americans, then you must join us in demanding a thorough and impartial investigation of these highly suspicious voting irregularities and refuse to declare victory until Americans have been assured that the vote was honest, that all their ballots were counted and that none were negated by illegal ballots. The people’s faith in the integrity of our elections is more important than the ambitions of either party.

Speaking as a Republican and strong Trump partisan, I promise that if the investigation proves that you won legitimately, then I will congratulate you on your win and accept the loss gracefully. But in all sincerity, I am concerned that if you do not take a stand now to insist on fair and legal elections, then you may eventually win the office, but it will be a bitter prize that will rip this nation apart, bring you more problems than you can imagine, and brand you in history as a President who took office under a cloud of suspicion that will never be removed.

I can’t think of a better illustration of Jesus’ question in Mark 8:36: “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”

Gov. Mike Huckabee

Court evangelical journalist David Brody is hoping:

Hey media: what if you’re totally wrong about all the election fraud and @realDonaldTrump actually wins? ?????

— David Brody (@DavidBrodyCBN) November 17, 2020

This is rich. The Liberty University Falkirk Center, an organization built around the idea that Christians are suffering at the hands of the “liberal” or “socialist” state, is posting about victimhood. You can’t make this stuff up.

The victim mentality is destructive to society. It breeds selfishness and propagates endless lies of self-entitlement. Let's be clear: If you are born in America, you are not a victim. In fact, you are part of the least victimized citizenry in the entire world.@JasonMattera pic.twitter.com/NwkcwOjIdz

— Falkirk Center (@falkirk_center) November 16, 2020

Wait. It gets even better. Here is a tweet about how the need for self-affirmation” leads to people to “stray from objective morality.” This pro-Trump organization does not seem to see the irony.

When your life revolves around your subjective self-affirmation, you inevitably stray from objective morality, and can begin to compromise truth for the sake of your own interests.@conservmillen pic.twitter.com/QMxBJy41xA

— Falkirk Center (@falkirk_center) November 16, 2020

Charlie Kirk of Liberty University’s Falkirk Center is also claiming that 1 million Trump supporters were in D.C. this weekend. And then he connects the rally to voter fraud.

More than one MILLION people turned out in Washington DC from across the country to support President @realDonaldTrump and you’re trying to tell me that the man who couldn’t even fill a high school gymnasium somehow got more votes than he did?

?

— Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) November 14, 2020

It is pretty hard to hear a court evangelical like Falkirk Center spokesperson Jenna Ellis talk about “truth.” (And in all caps nonetheless!)

Mainstream media is complicit in suppressing the TRUTH about election irregularities, illegality, and outright fraud and unlawful conduct.

They don’t want the American people to know!!

— Jenna Ellis (@JennaEllisEsq) November 16, 2020

And this:

I’ve spent the last four days with the President’s national legal team, and I’m confident we are going to preserve FREE and FAIR elections in America!@RudyGiuliani @SidneyPowell1
Joe DiGenova@VicToensing

COUNT ALL LEGAL VOTES!!

— Jenna Ellis (@JennaEllisEsq) November 16, 2020

Ellis also tweeted this.

The college debt “forgiveness” Biden’s team is planning is just paying off mostly white lib voters from 3rd tier colleges with worthless humanities degrees

It’s a transfer of wealth from welders, plumbers, and general contractors to adjunct professors and MSNBC watchers

— Buck Sexton (@BuckSexton) November 16, 2020

You gotta love Sexton. He’s an Amherst College political science major named “Buck,” but he loves the welders and plumbers. I guess humanities degrees are fine for people from first and second tier colleges.
