For people marching in DC in the Name of Christ - give this up. Go home and love your neighbor, serve your city, and build up your brothers and sisters in your church. Your theocratic visions cannot be met by a US President of any party. I'm glad you're praying, but...

...theocracy of the entire cosmos is what Jesus *already* has - he needs no votes or elections being overturned to establish his rule. I fear you've succumbed to a bewitching idol of power, supposing that a particular man will save us. He won't. He can't. But there's more.

Please consider what your public anger, faux displays of spirituality, and in some cases just plain weirdness do to the cause of the Gospel in our world. I am going to be blunt with you. You're harming the Church and the Church's witness. Please stop. You're branding Jesus as GOP

You've so equated the Kingdom of God with a particular vision of America, the Gospel's power with a political party, and the purpose of God with one man, that you've reduced the word Evangelical to a cul-de-sac of political power plays. What tragic impoverishment. Please stop.

Yes, protest marches are often good & needed, as are huge gatherings in DC of citizens from across the country to show leaders the issues we think matter. That's perfectly good and right. But refrain from violence, hatred, and undermining the Gospel's progress in our world.

Lastly, all of you Christian leaders who constantly advocate for some US cultural Christian kingdom & speak of little more than your brand of politics, who are infinitely more concerned for an election cycle than the Great Commission, close your podcast and be quiet for a year...

Get out of your echo chamber and work in a shelter or go on a mission trip to a place where people walk for three days just to hear the Scriptures taught. Put your efforts into supporting the emerging Church in the developing world. It's not too late to turn back to Jesus...

... to turn away from these deceptive dreams of an American vision of the Kingdom and Church dominance, and turn to people in need in all nations and from all nations, many right there in your own city. Give up using fear and anger to raise money, and start giving it away instead

You and the movement you've led and furthered, this evangelical nationalist movement, has done incredible harm to so many people here and made the work of missionaries around the world immeasurably more difficult. Because grace is greater still, it's not too late to change. Do it

Again, all for marches, protests, and advocating for your political convictions... but let's stop confusing Christ the Eternal King with our Politicians and their temporal administrations.

"He has shown you O man what is good and what the Lord requires of you: do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God." - Micah
