How The New Religious Right Assisted in the Re-Election of President Obama And Are Hastening God's Judgment of America

If you are not aware of why the New Apostolic Reformation is so dangerous to the church you need to read my new book Religious Trojan Horse. You should also watch this short video clip by Dr. John MacArthur on Lou Engle, Cindy Jacobs, C. Peter Wagner, and Mike Bickle.

Until pro-family organizations take a strong stand on the Word of God and use the culture war as a platform to preach the Gospel, I believe they will continue to spend millions of dollars with little to show for it. When James Dobson gave his retirement speech to the Focus on the Family board and employees, he all but admitted that there has been little success in the culture war:

James Dobson, 72, who resigned recently as head of Focus on the Family-one of the largest Christian groups in the country-and once denounced the Harry Potter books as witchcraft, acknowledged the dramatic reverse for the religious Right in a farewell speech to staff.

"We tried to defend the unborn child, the dignity of the family, but it was a holding action. We are awash in evil and the battle is still to be waged. We are right now in the most discouraging period of that long conflict. Humanly speaking, we can say we have lost all those battles." †

Pat Roberston has also expressed doubt on how much his culture war activities have really accomplished: In a reflective mood for Easter, evangelical icon and one time presidential candidate Pat Robertson echoes the Rev. Billy Graham's recent acknowledgement that he wished he had spent less time on politics and more time on the ministry and his family.

"When you get it all said and done, what did my work accomplish in the political realm?" Robertson wondered rhetorically during an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV in which he offers an inspirational Easter message.†

The pragmatic and ecumenical strategy of the New Religious Right has failed and I believe President Obama's re-election is proof of this fact. In Matthew 23:13-29, Jesus uses the word "woe" eight times when speaking to the scribes, Sadducees, and Pharisees. "Woe" means "judgment upon you," and Jesus pronounced judgment on them because they were more interested in moralizing and legislating morality than in understanding, accepting, and preaching the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Christians should be involved in good works such as defending the lives of the unborn, caring for widows and orphans, and running crisis pregnancy centers.

The reason, though, is that people will see the transforming power of the Gospel in our lives. Good works when used as a platform for the Gospel offers unbelievers the chance to see the light of Christ within our lives and to give glory to our heavenly Father. This is the Biblical meaning of being salt and light. The light is the Gospel not good works or moralizing.

Christian activism apart from the Gospel has no eternal value and is, in fact, a sin because we are not obeying God and fulfilling the Great Commission. Uniting with false teachers in spiritual enterprise for political gain is not proclaiming the Gospel but compromising the Gospel.

It is past time that we follow the example of Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:3-5Bible quote(verse 3) For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

(verse 4) And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

(verse 5) And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve.1 Corinthians 15 verses 3-5, where he declares that his first priority is the gospel:

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.

Christian pro-family leaders would do well to examine every initiative, project, book, speech, broadcast, and conference in light of whether it will further the proclamation of the biblical Gospel or compromise scriptural principles clearly laid out in God's Word.

If the New Religious Right were truly committed first and foremost to sound biblical theology and doctrine, they would not be involved in spiritual enterprises with those who participate in the New Age Movement, the New Apostolic Reformation, ecumenicalism, globalism, communitarianism, the Church of Rome, the Word of Faith movement, social justice, and the 'SOCIAL' gospel.

Most pro-family organizations claim to be Christian and boast that they embrace "Christian values" because the majority of their supports call themselves "Christian." However, when it comes to defining what it means to be a Biblical Christian, most of the New Religious Right will not reflect Biblical Christianity because they don't want to offend their Catholic, Mormon, Word of Faith, or New Apostolic Reformation donors. So, in the end, I believe the New Religious Right betrays the Gospel in deference to "another" gospel embraced by these disparate groups.

Yes, I voted, and I hope you did as well but post-election I have read where pro-family and "evangelical" leaders are lecturing Christians that the election of President Obama is what happens when Christians are not committed to Christian activism. Wrong! This is what happens with Christian leaders are committed to ecumenicalism, pragmatism, and give credibility to false teachers all in violation of God's Word and God's warning.

I think the question that needs to be asked now is who will you follow going forward? How will you respond when the New Religious Right leaders try to convince you that you need to continue to follow them in order to win the culture war? I for one rejected the culture-war industrial complex for what I think it is really all about some time ago.
