What We Learned as Devout Conservative Christians

I thought I should share something. There was a time when my husband and I supported the conservative Christian community with 100% support for the Republican Party as the ones who would end abortion and ‘return’ the USA to the Christian nation is once was. Something changed this. And it’s important to share this testimony. One reason it is important is because it may help those who come across my blog, or videos or videos where I am a guest why we no longer believe this.

My husband is a true man of God. He’s a called and anointed prophet, pastor and teacher. We both had been told by the Lord about one another. We were shown the spirit of whom we would be espoused to. We dated 2 years and married in 1994.

We went to church together shortly after we met. He came to my church and was baptized in the Holy Spirit and we grew in the Lord. 

Not long after we married, he found employment in one of the largest evangelical conservative Christian institutions in the United States. We supported their ideas and acts. We came to revere the Republican Party as the party we should support due to our Christian views. We signed petitions, participated in boycotts and my husband was a treasure to this organization. My husband was given the position as a manager of one of their many radio stations and when money was short to support the local station, he worked without pay, took a 2nd job to support his family and the body of Christ. 

We began to attend more meetings and events of this organization. And we started seeing things that troubled us. We learned of ulterior motives and began to question certain activity of the organization.i

It was painful to learn that this group we promoted and served were operating in outright sin and greed. We came to see while they advocated some issues strongly, they did not advocate others that were some of the base tenants  of Christ’s teachings. And this caused us to question the organization as a whole. As we looked into the methods used to accomplish what is Biblically correct we started seeing that they weren’t only ineffective but harmful, turning many lost souls away. 

We got into the Word of God voraciously. We began praying more and asking for God to lead us into what we should do. In a short time, we came to see that we were being lied to and given misinformation. We were lead to researching American history for the absolute truth about America as a Christian nation. We learned, to our shock that most of the forefathers were deists and not Christians. Some composed their own bible, cutting out portions they disagreed with, lived immoral secret lives and were part of a secret society called Freemasonry.

During this time, I came to understand how I had been abused by a secret Satanic cult under the guise and legal protection of the Freemasons. It was a difficult discovery and I sought the Lord for healing and truth. 

The Word of God was opened up to us in a powerful way. We came to see Christ’s true teachings and warnings and this organization and others like it were teaching scripture in error. 

As we continued to study American history and the Bible, it became clear that American wasn’t a Christian nation. It was a nation that promoted a non Christian idea called Freedom of Religion. Christ does not condone such a view. Thomas Jefferson fought for Muslims to practice without persecution. Christ wouldn’t condone this and you won’t find any Muslims following Christ in truth. Can anyone argue with this? If you do, you argue with the Word of God.

We found out that a lot of Republican politicians weren’t Christians and many didn’t truly care about abortion or any other issue. They simply wanted a powerful position. Some were suspiciously dark. And I believe many were involved in the broader group that abused me. I was abused by secret Satanists as a child and most of them held positions in the church and community promoting Christ by mouth but cursing him in darkness. If you want to know more of my testimony, please go to the You Tube channel called A Minute to Midnite where I share with Tony Koretz and Joanie Stahl.

This experience of finding out that this  large organization we served with and loved was not what we thought was very difficult. It was painful but we grew. It pushed us deeper in prayer and deeper into the Word of God.

As we came to see that high reverence of America and high patriotism was actually idolatry, we abandoned that part (which is big among most conservative Christians). Now, let me be clear here. We do not hate America. We’re blessed to have been born here and grow up with the freedom to practice Christ openly, have freedom of speech, press, fair trial, the right to bear arms and much more.

But we stopped supporting the Republican Party after all we learned. It’s been hard in ways because we can find no churches that do not bring American patriotism idol worship into their services and who do not support the party. We experienced such dislike for saying we did not agree with the party. A few times we we felt afraid in their midst. We’ve left 2 churches since and the church we now attend is pretty much the same. We love our brothers and sisters in Christ in all these churches and can serve with them. We just can’t discuss anything political. We keep our views to ourselves when worshipping. We have walked out of a few services for idolatry. Once when a beloved pastor we love dearly put the idol of the Statue of Liberty (Ishtar) on the alter for a 4th of July service and others for many flags and songs sung with little mention of Christ but of America. We don’t pledge allegiance to the flag. We consider it wrong to commit allegiance to anyone other than Christ Jesus.

There’s so many things we do in this country that we don’t think twice about. And we need to.

Once a man in an online prophecy group told me that the American Constitution was equal to the Bible. When I told him this isn’t true he lashed back harshly against me and I was ostracized harshly by the members of the entire group. There’s many MANY stories I could share of being persecuted for opposing such ideas. But Jesus warned us all that we would be persecuted. And when I was 19 and a devout Republican conservative Christian, the Lord showed me specifically that He would have me speak truth to people but most would not hear and I would experience a lot of rejection and persecution from the congregation. He specifically told me that it would be Christians who would persecute me. At 19 I had no idea what it all meant. And I was 29 when I came to see the truths about the Republican Party (and know that I do see the great corruption of the Democratic Party. This isn’t a leftist view). It was also when I did an in depth study into American history and the truth of how the rights are not Christian. We are told in the commandments to serve God and only God. Freedom of religion directly opposes this. I’m thankful for the rights we have but it is a fact that the commandments and American law is not the same.

I hope in some way this helps people understand my position and the position my husband also holds. Many accuse him of being political in his posts and responses but if you look closely, you will see the gift of prophecy. He desires to provoke thought, prayer, scripture reading, fact finding and living for Christ in spirit and in truth.
