Worldviews and Visions of False Messiahs, the Path of Evil, the Gospel, and the Great Commission

“Everybody wants to rule the world.”

— Tears for Fears (1985)

———

Only discipled repentant Christians are focused and committed to loving, serving, discipling, and blessing all humanity — for the sake of, and in the name of, the Lamb who was slain to save the cosmos.

———

Too many non-believers and fake believers across many ethnicities, religions, civilizations, nations, and political movements hold supremacist or false-messianic visions of the future — visions in which their people, ideology, empire, sacred order, or political project rules the world. They base their worldview and vision on what they hold to be sacred texts or oral tradition. And too many act passionately, devotedly, and enduringly on their harmful belief system.

———

“White” MAGA non-believers, fake believers, “Christian” nationalists, and Bible-using imperialists are in a bind because they need Christian language and fake “Christian” leaders to deceive Christians — but the Bible authoritatively proclaims that Jesus alone (Solus Christus) is the Messiah. So they have been using a wolf in sheep’s clothing to advance their authoritarian, conquistadorial agenda. And they will continue to do so — unless they repent.

———

“White” conservatives, “White” progressives, elite collaborators, and proximity-brokers of color are adamantly committed to the together-through-well-and-evil covenant — the racial and partisan solidarity that protects and supports “their own” regardless of the harm done to others. This is the kind of covenant imperial systems uphold. Unless they repent, they will most probably persist in advancing their authoritarian, conquistadorial, colonizer agenda.

Whether Trump consolidates further authoritarian power, or whether he is lawfully impeached, convicted, and removed from power — the unrepentant European conquistadores–colonizers of the U.S. will not disappear. They will develop another false messiah.

That future U.S. “White” false messiah could arise from the Left or the Right.

To all non-believers and professing “Christians” across nations, religions, and political movements who hold supremacist or false-messianic visions of the future — whether Anglo ethnonationalist, Russian imperialist, Chinese civilizational-nationalist, Jewish ethnonationalist–Zionist, Muslim supremacist, and others:

Your rejection of Christ has led you to the way of the evil horsemen–Beast–False Prophet–Babylon system that we read about in Revelation.

Without the Messiah, who is perfectly, infinitely, and eternally just, loving, faithful, and powerful, you are enslaved and driven by ideologies that rely on violence, tyranny, injustice, theft, and atrocity for self-preservation, advancement, and domination.

Jesus is the only way out of your bondage to thieving and murderous mindsets and practices.

I pray that God would convert and save you in Christ by the grace and power of the Holy Spirit.

If you continue in your self-chosen path of unbelief and rebellion, I pray that God would at least restrain your evil intentions and actions, make you more humane, and turn you toward justice, mercy, and protection rather than tyranny and domination.

This is dogma:

The persecution of sincere believers–followers of Christ is certain — in this age, between His incarnation and second coming.

———

Heed the words of the Emperor, Commander-in-Chief, and Healer of the cosmos:

“The one who loves their mother or father more than Me is not worthy of Me; the one who loves their daughter or son more than Me is not worthy of Me. And the one who does not take up their cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. The one who finds their life will lose it; and the one who loses their life because of Me will find it.” (Matthew 10:37–39, translations mine)

“If someone comes to Me, but does not hate their father and mother, wife and children, sisters and siblings and brothers; yes, and also their life — that person cannot be My disciple. Whoever does not carry their cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.” (Luke 14:26–27)

“Hate” here does not mean sinful malice; it names supreme allegiance to Christ over every earthly relation, as Matthew 10:37 makes clear — including in the face of persecution and martyrdom.

Sincere Christian = dead person walking

In the crosshairs of horsemen–Beast–False Prophet–Babylon structures. On the way to harm, execution, and martyrdom. But always alive to God in Christ through faith.

———

Persecution affects the persecuted’s family, friends, community, and social network. Believing loved ones are harmed and persecuted for their faith. Non-believing relatives cut ties with their believing kin, and some even participate in persecuting them. This is one concrete implication of Jesus’ severe language in Luke 14:26: allegiance to Him can rupture bonds and expose believers to rejection, betrayal, and persecution from family and friends.

———

This is also dogma:

Whether covert, overt, or somewhere in between, the rule of evil horsemen, beasts, false prophets, and babylons in every nation will persist — in this age, between Christ’s incarnation and His second coming.

———

But that does not mean that Christians, in the name of “wisdom” and “strategy”, must be silent and just focus on quietly witnessing to some individuals and communities.

It is true that we must be “sagacious as the snakes and pure as the doves” (Matthew 10:16). At the same time, we must unstoppably and consistently witness to the world holistically, in word and in action — sharing Jesus, discipling all the ethnē, planting repentant churches (both aboveground and underground), driving out demonic powers, lawfully and nonviolently opposing and dismantling evil and repressive structures, and liberating oppressed individuals and communities worldwide (Luke 4:18–19; Matthew 28:19, Galatians 3:8–9, 14; Acts 3:25–26; Matthew 5:13–16; Revelation 7:9).

———

It also does not mean that believers in Jesus will fail to disciple all the ethnē — proclaiming the gospel to every people, gathering Christ’s harvest from every nation, and blessing all humanity.

Revelation and the whole New Testament are clear: Jesus wins — and so will all His believers–followers.

———

“And this good announcement of the kingdom will be proclaimed in the whole world for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” (Commander-in-Chief Jesus Christ, Matthew 24:14)

———

“After these, I looked, and behold: a vast crowd of people that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before the throne and the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying:

‘Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.’” (Revelation 7:9–10)

To all our most beloved Black, Native, Latine, immigrant, LGBTQIA+, and other oppressed individuals and communities:

Christ hears, sees, feels, and knows everything that you have been and are continually going through. He wants to liberate, heal, restore, and bless you.

Give your life to Him — 100%.

Trust and follow Him.

Rise and be healed in the name of Emperor, Commander-in-Chief, and Healer Jesus Messiah.
