"A faithful, sensible servant is one to whom the master can give the responsibility of managing his other household servants and feeding them. If the master returns and finds that the servant has done a good job, there will be a reward. I tell you the truth, the master will put that servant in charge of all he owns. But what if the servant is evil and thinks, 'My master won't be back for a while,' and he begins beating the other servants, partying, and getting drunk? The master will return unannounced and unexpected, and he will cut the servant to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. - Matthew 24:45-51 (NLT)
Well, it seems that Charisma news is now scraping the bottom of the barrel to inundate its readers with political propaganda disguised as a Christian cause. The ulterior motive is simple. Steven Strang answers to the Republican Party, full stop. Dominionism and Charismania is where his bread gets buttered. His marching orders are very clear. He is trying to co-opt as many Christian votes as possible because without them, Donald Trump cannot get elected. We have seen Strang mobilize everyone from lunatics like Greg Locke and Mario Murillo, who say that anyone who votes Democratic is going to hell, to compromised pastors like Jack Hibbs who teaches that we will be judged on our voting record when we stand before Christ. Consider for a moment, the sheer stupidity of that position. Salvation is no longer based upon saving faith in Christ and His finished work on the cross. Instead, it will be based upon whether we voted for a man who was unfaithful with three different wives, the last time with a porn star, six bankruptcies, a convicted rapist with 34 other felony convictions. I cannot gauge Hibb's sincerity but if he really believes that then he is entirely too biblically moronic to have the platform that he does. The bottom scraping this week is listed in the two links above. I am grateful when Charisma herds them together like this to make it easier to expose them for the frauds they are. The first link is to a false prophet named Joey Z, yes you read that right. The second one is to a pastor no one has ever heard of named Gary Hamrick. They both essentially butcher the bible and/or falsify prophecy for the same message - vote Trump. God told me. Please. Let us reason once more together beloved, starting with Mr. Z.
"Joseph Z, a prophetic voice and founder of Joseph Z Ministries, recently appeared on "The Strang Report" podcast to discuss the upcoming election and its potential consequences.
Z describes 2024 as a "do-over year," referencing what he sees as unresolved tensions from the 2020 election. He claims that the church's response will play a crucial role in determining the country's direction." - Charisma News
I have visited Mr. Z's website and he still appears to be small time. He needs to take a masterclass in grifting from Jennifer LeClaire or Jenny Weaver. Nonetheless, he is trying to break through in the false prophet scene by beating the popular dominionist drum, so of course, Strang platformed him. He does so because Strang is trying to saturate the Christian media sphere with as much spiritual bullying as possible to get you to vote for his Savior - and it is not Jesus. By saying "founder"; Strang means Joey purchased the domain name from Go Daddy, slapped his name on some tee shirts he sells, and created a Joey Z app, so everyone can stay up to date on what he pretends to hear from God. The only unresolved tensions from the 2020 election are caused by people like Joey Z who insist on peddling conspiracy theories in the name of Christ. His guy lost by seven million votes. It was not close. He pursued over 60 cases and lost all of them. There is no doubt. No grey area. So, spare us the "do over" nonsense Joey.
'"The Lord is saying it's in the hands of the church," Z says, asserting that the outcome of the election hinges on whether the church actively engages in the political process. "If [the church] will show up, I think there'll be victory. If they don't, I think we're going to go into a very, very difficult season," he added.' - Charisma News
