Now, that is a masterclass in bovine excrement. I provided the entire context of Romans 13 above as the key verses. It is beyond clear, that God is speaking about people in places of authority, the rulers. Yes, this is a constitutional republic but that means we elect people into those places of authority to rule us. What makes the American system special is that the power we have is in who we elect and if we do not like how we are being governed, then we can vote for someone else to be in those places of authority. Make no mistake beloved. We are not the rulers. That is an asinine, childlike interpretation of our governmental system. We choose the rulers; we are not the rulers. The inane conclusion that not voting is disobedience to God is laughingly dangerous. God does not care ONE WHIT about our carnal system of governance. His kingdom is not of this world actually means something. One can make a more credible, biblical case for NOT voting than for voting lockstep to one political party or the other. The NAR has a problem though. They know that the vast majority of Christians choose to not vote, and they need every vote they can muster. So, they try and convince you that up is down and not to believe your lying eyes when you see their idol or your lying ears when you hear scripture debunk them. Let us move on to Mario Murillo and the second link above.
'On a recent episode of "The Strang Report" podcast, hosted by Stephen Strang, evangelist Mario Murillo issues a stark prophetic warning about the 2024 U.S. presidential election, revealing that electing Kamala Harris would bring dire consequences for the United States. Drawing from the biblical story of 1 Samuel 8, in which Israel demands a king, Murillo parallels this historical event with the upcoming election, urging Christians to understand the severity of their choice. Murillo states that God revealed to him five specific dangers that will arise if Harris is elected. "God woke me up and said" 'I want you to make a prediction of what's going to happen if the election goes a certain way.' The first phrase I heard was 'daughter of lies,' the second phrase was 'there will be no going back from this,'" he says. The first consequence Murillo highlights from his dream is the loss of the nation's children. He points to Harris' association with "the most anti-parent radical individual in America," referring to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz being selected as her running mate. "Our children will be confiscated," Murillo says, adding, "This is about the children."' - Charisma News
Uh-huh. So, the creator of the entire universe is worried if Kamala Harris gets elected. So worried that He told someone as biblically moronic as Mario Murillo, to "warn" the church. C'mon. At least try to not look ridiculous. The comparison to Israel choosing a king is ludicrous. Israel chose Saul instead of God! They no longer wanted to be a theocracy. America is not a theocracy. Choosing Trump is not godlier. It is not choosing God. The Lord did not "wake" Mario up. Maybe that was the late-night pizza he ate but it sure was not God. It is also a little rich to pretend that God said, "daughter of lies" when your political idol is literally the most lie-infested candidate in history. He just finished regaling us with absurd stories about Haitian migrants, who are our brothers and sisters in Christ, eating pets in Ohio. During his presidency, it is reported that Trump told in excess of 30,500 lies. Now, all politicians are inherently dishonest but to pretend that God is warning about the lies of Harris is the height of madness. There will be no going back from this? Again, doesn't God know already who is going to win? Children are not going to be "confiscated." These scare tactics are devoid of reality, especially considering that Walz would be the Vice President and as such, have very little impact. This is not about the truth, however. It is about power, greed and idolatry.
'Second, he warns that a Harris presidency will bring more war, pointing to the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Referring to 1 Samuel 8, he says, "If you choose this bad leader, it's going to cost you your kids, and number two, it's going to take you into war." He asserts that Harris "can't stand up to the complex that wants war and wants our boys to go and die in battles we don't need."' - Charisma News
This reveals that Murillo is only trafficking in talking points instead of genuinely understanding something as complex as geopolitics. We have friends and enemies in the world. Russia is not our friend. Preventing Russia from invading sovereign nations, as they did in Ukraine, is what prevents further aggression that could lead us into war. What Murillo's masters are arguing, is Ukraine should just give up and give their own country to Russia. That will only embolden the aggressor country into being more aggressive and the next time, maybe we do have to send our boys to go into battle. Currently, we are not at war. We are aiding our ally against our enemy. Mario Murillo is woefully ignorant about these matters. The bad leader he supports idolizes the strongman, such as Vladmir Putin. That is not a good thing. It is not a Christian thing.
"The third consequence Murillo cites is a massive shift toward socialism. He refers to 1 Samuel 8 again, saying Harris will "confiscate your wealth and give it to her friends," claiming her policies will enrich elites while harming the middle class. "This is the finest concise description of socialism that has ever been written in the history of the world," he adds." - Charisma News
Please remember that 1Samuel 8 has nothing to do with this election. Charisma keeps citing it to try and apply a patina of Christianese so something entirely carnal. This economic scare tactic is also deceptive. Socialism is not some Christian boogeyman. Parts of our society are already socialist in nature. Jesus espoused socialistic policies. Capitalism is not God's divine preference. Stop mixing the holy with the profane. Kamala Harris is not going to confiscate your wealth! She will tax people at a higher rate who make 400,000 dollars or more. If that is you, even then your wealth is not being confiscated. You are being taxed, which according to the key verses is perfectly allowable by God. What Murillo is doing is gaslighting. The notion that between these two candidates the one who was born a billionaire and had everything handed to him only to declare bankruptcy six times is the defender of the middle class is hogwash. Trump just said last week that he hates overtime and joked with Elon Musk about Musk terminating people who were striking. Realize again that facts are irrelevant to Murillo. He has been given marching orders to steal your vote, so he is going to lie to do just that. There is only one "elite" running and Mario is trying to convince you that he is just joe average guy. How insultingly inane. How disgusting that he would try to wrap this pig up in the bible and pretend it is a crown.
"The fourth warning is the theft of productivity. Murillo argues that illegal immigration and unchecked social policies will drain American resources. "They're absorbing community funds that are being taken from your children, being taken from your job and your prosperity," he says." - Charisma News
