Go Ahead and Hate Your Neighbor! - Annual NAR Dominionist Leadership Roundtable - By Anthony Wade, leftist

Found here. Our comments in bold.
-----------------------

Rev. Wade doesn't even pretend anymore. He's a leftist agitator, a spreader of leftist propaganda, a religious pretender who represents himself as a truth-teller. 

There is nothing in the long screed that even comes close to being a Bible teaching. It is instead an anti-capitalist, anti-Republican, anti-trucker-protest, anti-God polemic. 

Rev. Wade has reduced himself down to a purveyor of agitprop. And, he doesn't even lie very well.
----------------------

But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death." - Revelation 21:8 (ESV)

Larry Tomczak: 8 Flashpoints From the 34th Leadership Roundtable Charisma News

(...) Deleted long, irrelevant screed.

From the above linked article here are the "themes" they decided were of paramount importance for the kingdom:

Centrality of Jesus/priority of the gospel.
Censorship and the corrupt media.
Putin, Russia and Ukraine invasion.
Communist China's expanding influence.
Increasing tyranny and the truckers' convoy.
Call to fight for our God-given constitutional freedoms under assault.
Alarming Millennial generation data.
Widespread "progressive" Marxist/Socialist propaganda.
Biden/radical Leftist Democratic Party policies.
Another civil war and a second American Revolution?


It is an insult to intelligence to think that the inclusion of the centrality of Jesus and the gospel is anything more than window dressing amidst this wish list of Republican Party talking points. Is there anything remotely central to Christ on the rest of this list? No. For goodness sakes how did the Canadian truckers end up on a list of Christian priorities? People who thumbed their nose at authority and refused to get a vaccine that could protect them and their loved ones? That's the new cause of Christ? In the world of the NAR it is. If you think Jesus would care at all about Marxism, radical leftists, or Constitutional freedoms than you have not been reading the bible. (Rev. Wade frequently mentions the Bible, but the average person would never know what he's talking about since he almost never quotes it.)

Jesus had a genuine authoritarian government that was actively oppressing His people when He was alive and do you know what He did about it? Nothing. (You see it here. Rev. Wade makes a claim about the Bible without telling us where the Bible says this. But is it true that Jesus had nothing to say about government oppression? Well, no. We shall not quote the passages, which are in some cases lengthy, but we shall provide the references:

Mt. 6:2
Mt. 15:1-14
Mt. 20:25
Mt. 22:18
Mt. 23 [the whole chapter]
Lk. 4:18
Lk. 11 [the whole chapter]
Lk. 13:14-17

Jesus has a lot to say about the rulers, the Pharisees, and the teachers of the law and how they oppressed the people.

This is one reason why you should not consider Rev. Wade a teacher of the Bible. He is incompetent to do so.)

He did not even add it to the list of things to vaguely worry about. His kingdom was not of this world. Nonetheless, Larry Tomczak goes on to reveal the eight takeaways from this meeting of apostate minds.

"1. Because of comfortable, complacent and cowardly "Christianity," the church may be successful numerically, but we are unsuccessful influentially, especially with the Millennials, who represent the largest generation in our history. The First and Second Great Awakenings, Azusa Street Revival, Jesus Movement and the Brownsville Revival had common denominators of humility, holiness and hunger for God that must be recovered as we claim the promise of 2 Chronicles 7:14." - Larry Tomczak

You cannot claim things randomly from the bible. (Significant Irony Alert. If there's one thing that characterizes Rev. Wade's "teaching," it is how he makes random claims about the Bible.)

It doesn't work that way. Besides that Tomczak and this cacophony of falseness fails to even understand the irony of false teachers demanding to claim a verse that requires that people called by my name need to repent. (? Grammar problems...)

Not those heathen sinners in the world you like railing against so much but yourselves. Millennials see through you, which is why they want nothing to do with you. (?? How does Rev. Wade know this?)

They see that you selectively defend the morally indefensible simply based upon political affiliation and demonize anyone who disagrees. (?? How does Rev. Wade know this?)

They see your hypocrisy Larry. They see that when prominent leaders who fancy themselves Christian gather to discuss what is important to God that Jesus is listed only once. They see that you are sowing seeds for civil war or revolution, lying about the media, and anyone who would dare to oppose you politically. (?? They see all this? What??)

"2. "Democracy Dies in Darkness" is the motto of The Washington Post, which broke the Watergate scandal, yet today we live in a country with corrupt corporate media slanting the news or ignoring major stories like Hillary's campaign spying on President Trump while heralding the hoax of Russian collusion. Our assignment is to act aggressively in bringing truth via alternative media, such as Trump's just-launched Truth Social app, which garnered 1.5 billion views in 24 hours and had a waiting list on Day One of nearly 400,000." - Larry Tomczak

This is why millennials hate you. (?? How does Rev. Wade know this?)

Because they see that you are shameful liars who use subterfuge to try and score political points. The Russian Collusion was not a hoax. (Bare denial.)

It was proven beyond doubt in the Mueller Report. (It was not.)

The story about Hillary spying is absurdly false. (It is not. Unfortunately for Rev. Wade, the AP, no friend to Trump, just reported that the Steele dossier was bought and paid for by the Hillary campaign.)

Everyone who does not watch Fox propaganda knows this. (Written like a true Leftist. Which is what Rev. Wade is.)

Realize you pretend to represent Jesus Christ. You will stand before Him one day Larry and answer for the lies you told. You will not be able to nod and wink your way out of it then. You are trumpeting the new Trump app as the solution to dishonesty? From a man who lied every day, multiple times about nearly every subject. A man so vain he used a sharpie to alter a weather map to cover up something asinine he had said? This is your standard for truth and then you wonder why you are losing the millennials? (More Leftist talking points. We have warned the reader before that Rev. Wade is a Leftist first, and a Christian second [or third]. 

And we would wonder, how is Rev. Wade's leftist agenda doing with the millennials? If one googles "millennial political affiliation," the most frequent characterization is that millennials are all over the map.

But Rev. Wade would prefer to claim that millennials hate these specific people. As is typical he offers no proof, relying on derisive comments.)

'3. Bob Jones prophesied years ago that "When the honkers honk, the eagles will fly." Is this being fulfilled on our watch as the Canadian truckers Freedom Convoy makes noise (like Canadian geese) inspiring us Americans to act? We see with clarity growing threats of tyranny surrounding us and seen by our Canadian neighbors with Trudeau's insulting remarks and brutal emergency powers inflicted against Ottawa's peaceful protesters. Watch the bogus narrative demonizing and dismissing thousands of truckers coming to Washington, D.C.: "They're all part of that Jan. 6 insurrection!"' - Larry Tomczak

The lengths that this troop of imposters will go to is staggering. To openly mock January 6th, (Which he did not do...)

which saw law enforcement officers beaten to death is beyond the pale. (This is false. Officer Sicknick died of natural causes. But it is a leftist talking point, and continues to be so no matter how many times the facts are pointed out.)

Trudeau's comments were not insulting as there were white supremacists who had joined the convoy. (Summary denial. Rev. Wade offers only an "is not" for a response. That is childish.)

The emergency powers act is not brutal. (He does it again. So we will simply respond, "yes, it is brutal." There. We have engaged Rev. Wade on his own terms using his own techniques.)

It is punishment for lawbreakers who were given ample time to obey the law. (Again, a perfect Leftist perspective.)

So, despite Bob Jones' ridiculous prophecy about honkers, let us move on.

"4. Vladimir Putin is a sociopathic, narcissistic communist dictator and former KGB chieftain who wants to restore "Mother Russia." He's almost a billionaire whose alleged "love partner" resides in Monaco (underneath the casino from a James Bond movie) where she oversees his stash. Russians suffered as he not long ago invaded Crimea (under Obama who did nothing) and now, with a weak Joe Biden, invaded Ukraine with more territorial expansion in mind. It's worth noting that during Trump's years, neither China nor Russia made any such moves." - Larry Tomczak

Seriously? A group of alleged Christian leaders gathered to lay out God's vision and this is where you end up? You end up openly criticizing the Commander in Chief of the nation you purport to love? You give aid and comfort to our enemies? You also conveniently leave out that your hero Trump tried blackmailing the leader of Ukraine to dig up non-existent evidence against his political rival and was impeached for doing so? (Wow, Rev. Wade either has been living under a rock, or he so fully believes the Leftist Narrative that he has forsaken critical thinking.)

Let's be honest. (Yes, please. For a change, Rev. Wade, please be honest with us.)

It doesn't matter what Joe Biden did or did not do. (But obviously it matters what Trump did...)

Larry Tomczak would have criticized him anyway. (And Rev. Wade would defend him...)

If he sent our troops in, he would have been demonized for that. If he bombed the Russians, he would be criticized for that. You must understand that Larry Tomczak is not a political commentator and certainly not a Christian one. He is a whore who has sold himself out to his political masters. They do not care about the cause of Jesus Christ one iota. They only care about returning to power.

"5. Distinguished General Jerry Boykin (Ret.), vice president at Family Research Council, charged all of us to be courageous and "Brace yourself like a man!" (Job 38:3). In Revelation 21, the first ones thrown into the lake of fire are the cowards, and in these critical times, we must remember Jesus said He's returning not like a Lamb but a lion! Talleyrand said he'd "rather have 100 sheep led by a lion than 100 lions led by a sheep." We must speak up boldly and stand up courageously as the battle is not coming but has already begun!" - Larry Tomczak

Nothing like playing to testosterone and the male ego. Read the key verse today (Wow. Finally, a reference to the Bible. However, the only reason it is there to provide religious cover for Rev. Wade's puerile remarks.)

that Boykin references though and you will see the categories are merely listed. The text does not say the cowardly go first, just that they are listed first. I might add here, does it matter? (Why don't you tell us, Mr. Bible Expert? Your nit-picking, critical spirit is getting tiring.)

The liars go last on the list but does that mean they have it any better? The battle that keeps getting alluded to here is simply a political war, not a spiritual one. The cowardly according to the apostates are preachers who refuse to preach about carnal politics. The reality however is that they refuse to preach the gospel in their relentless pursuit of the idols of this age. I would argue that it matters not in what order people are thrown into the burning lake of Sulphur. (And there's your Bible lesson for today. that is the closest Rev. Wade will come to explaining Scripture in this "devotional.")

"6. It's time for all of us to fight for our freedoms! Radical progressives are aggressively trying to take away our constitutional, God-given rights, and we must remember that these rights come from God, not from government. Patriots are exposing and confronting Black Lives Matter Marxists and LGBTQ activists in schools (in Leftist San Francisco, parents ousted three school board members); in Tennessee, our Christian governor is putting Hillsdale College Judeo-Christian civics curriculum in all our K-12 schools (as well as in 50 new charter schools); Roundtable participant Janet Porter, who pioneered "Heartbeat Bills" saving millions of babies, is running for Congress in Ohio; and former Prison Fellowship director Garland Hunt's son Jeremy is doing the same in Georgia. No more passive pastors and people submitting to the "fear of man," afraid to address same-sex marriage, socialism and the sanctity of life!" - Larry Tomczak

So we are led to believe that the vision God has for this world is the GOP platform. That people who do not think they should be killed by law enforcement should be reviled by Christians. (It's like wack-a-mole. The Leftist narrative keeps popping up no matter how often it is beat down.)

That our beliefs should be rammed down the throat of the unbeliever, (Whose beliefs? "Our" beliefs? It seems pretty clear that the entire purpose of this article is to criticize the "NAR" for their beliefs. Apparently it is Rev. Wade's beliefs we should adopt.

Which leads to the inescapable question: Whose beliefs? Rev. Wade has a preference, which he has mentioned more than once. Some sort of beliefs are going to be "rammed down" our throats. Why his? Why not someone else's?)

either by force or legislation. The modern-day crusades if you will. (We are beginning to suspect that Rev. Wade is ignorant. He keeps making these snarky little comments that are neither true nor relevant. We will only say at this point that Rev. Wade may wish to actually study the Crusades rather than accept the leftist characterization of them.)

The Great Commission was not given as a mandate of force. When Paul was met with resistance to the gospel message he brushed off the dirt on his sandals and went on to the next town so that all might hear the gospel. This article is not about the gospel beloved. It has virtually nothing to do with it. The rewrite of American history is not lost on me as I used to teach US History and Government. (!!! We thank the Lord that he "used to" teach. Such ignorance ought not be in the classroom, nor occupy the pulpit.)

Somehow, I imagine their version of a Judeo-Christian curriculum might suspiciously omit slavery and the genocide of the Native Americans. (This is simply a nasty, base attack, completely gratuitous and based on stereotyping and leftist bumper sticker slogans.)

Yet another reason why Millennials see right through them. Due to social media, Millennials have the truth of history or any other matter at their fingertips. They are able to see and rewatch the murder of George Floyd and then are left wondering how people like Larry Tomczak can say Jesus is against his life mattering. (Even more insipid. Rev. Wade thinks BLM is actually about blacks. And of course, this means to oppose the Nazi tactics of BLM means one hates blacks. 

We have nearly had our fill of this hateful, evil man who represents himself as a minister of the Gospel.)

"7. Barna research uncovered almost half of Millennials support socialism over capitalism as Marxism is also deceiving millions. Senior prophetic leader Rick Joyner shared from his latest book, Marxism's Strategy for Destroying America, how this insidious system has murdered more than 100 million of its own citizens to purge potential nonconformists in the 20th century alone. We must root out this anti-God ideology propagandized by Black Lives Matter and Leftist professors to see it vanquished from our land." - Larry Tomczak

I am not here to defend Marxism because that is hardly the point. (But he sure has used Marxist agitprop.)

Tomczak and his cronies see the Barna poll and react that they must somehow destroy Socialism as opposed to looking at the poll and asking the correct question. Why? Why is it that so many Millennials would have given up on the system of government that they currently reside in? Why would they turn to alternate theories? (Easy. 

They have been spoon-fed Marxist agitprop by leftist teachers and Marxist professors all their lives. They have been lied to about capitalism. They have been told that they are oppressed by eeevil CEOs while they themselves have shouted down, canceled, and doxxed anyone who disagrees. They have had it pounded into their heads that government is the source of all goodness. They have been taught to hate Christians and Christianity, but to love Islam and LGBTQ. They have been taught that making a life for one's self through hard work is not possible, so government is needed to right the wrongs of a thousand years of patriarchy.

It's so easy to spout leftist jargon as we have just done. It requires no effort at all. Loose, vague accusations appealing to the emotions. Slogans and buzzwords. Creating bogeymen to attack and blame. That's Marxist agitprop. 

And that's Rev. Wade's rhetorical techniques in a nutshell. He doesn't belong in the category of "Thoughtful Christian Commentators." He's a bomb-thrower, a liar and a purveyor of Leftist slogans.)

It never occurs to those who already rule in the ruling class that their preferred government might not feel as good for those who go without. Instead of asking the difficult questions that could lead to real change, Tomczak tries to make it a God issue. As if God is now the author of Capitalism. That is about as true as Black Lives Matter espousing Marxism, which they do not. (The left-leaning Politifact would disagree. A now-deleted BLM web page is quoted as saying, 
"We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and ‘villages’ that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable."
BLM founders said of themselves:
"We do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia, in particular, are trained organizers; we are trained Marxists. We are superversed on, sort of, ideological theories. And I think what we really try to do is build a movement that could be utilized by many, many Black folks."
And Rev. Wade may wish to see what socialists say about BLM.

This is the extent to which Rev. Wade will lie to us in order to further his agenda.)

"8. While we love and pray for the Chinese people, we must expose the totalitarian Chinese Communist government, which has carried out under Chairman Mao's Cultural Revolution the deportation and destruction of millions. They're preparing to take over Taiwan (having seen Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan). As corporations and celebrities sell their souls, putting profit over principle, patriotic and freedom-loving Americans must speak out against massive human rights abuses in China, along with the persecution of Christians, Buddhists and other faith groups as the Chinese Communist Party conducts the genocide of a million Muslims.

Here's the deal: We concluded our roundtable with an extended Spirit-led time of intercessory prayer and some prophetic words. As watchmen on the wall, we must take seriously what's happening in our day and recognize a second American Revolution may be at hand. We must get our house in order as we are "looking for and hastening" (2 Pet. 3:12a, NKJV) the coming of our conquering King!" - Larry Tomczak

This bizarre ending only concludes what was a bizarre article to begin with. The spirit that is leading them is most definitely not the Holy Spirit of God. (Undocumented pronouncement.)

The biblical view of watchmen on the wall has to do with preaching the gospel to the lost. (Undocumented pronouncement.)

Tomczak has trafficked in the opposite message here. He has made enemies of the very people who need the gospel the most. (Undocumented pronouncement.)

God says preach the gospel to the leftist, radical, BLM, Marxist and Tomczak not only says no, but tries to tell Christians to hate them. (Undocumented pronouncement.) 

That we have to hate and destroy those Chinese Communist, progressive, anti-freedom convoy, have I mentioned recently that Joe Biden is weak? Then to almost gleefully consider that we might be upon a second American Revolution? Go ahead and hate your neighbors! What treasonous anti-American doctrine is Tomczak spewing now? That losing an election means you must revolt? What happened to Romans 13? (What does Romans 13 say, Rev. Wade???? Why don't you tell us? Why don't you quote it?)

What happened to God raises all leaders up? (Undocumented pronouncement.)

What happened to God is always on the throne? Beloved, if you ever thought the NAR and dominionism is not dangerous please reread this article from one of their top generals. He has tried to rouse Christians against every single political enemy of the Republican Party and tried to sell the notion of the overthrow of our own government. And he claims these directives came from God after meeting with his heretical compatriots. You can be Republican and Christian and still believe in the power of the gospel. (You can? We didn't think Rev. Wade thought this possible. Up til now he has only had Criticism for those on the Right, and no criticism at all for the Left. In fact, he has defended every leftist cause he has brought up.)

 How weak is the false god you serve that one election throws everything you claim to have faith in into a twisted tizzy? That you are left to fear mongering and lies in the name of Christ? (Another Irony Alert.)

Mark them beloved. Mark them and avoid their poison well. (Advice we would give regarding Rev. Wade.)
