"Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you. - Matthew 7:6 (ESV)
I want you to keep in mind as you read this that Mario Murillo pretends to be a pastor and evangelist. That is his primary cosplaying role. It is important to keep this in mind because what you are about to hear is so antithetical to the gospel it is literally staggering. Realize he has thousands upon thousands of followers. His brand of NAR dominionism is a rampant cancer in the church today. He opens the above linked article with a gruesome story of Corey Burke, who murdered her sick elderly father last month. Mario blames it all somehow on "wokeism", an imaginary enemy he constantly props up like a weak strawman argument. He does this solely because of the reporting from the NY Post, which is 3000 miles away from Seattle, where the murder occurred. Every single other report on the Internet makes no mention of political motivation. Burke apparently snapped about her father demanding the lights in the house be turned off. Burke went and got an ice axe and killed her father, then proceeded to smash all of the windows until the police arrived and found her clapping and covered in blood. I think it is safe to say that Corey Burke experienced some kind of a mental health issue, demonic if you prefer Christianese. To use this senseless tragedy to smear all of his political opponents would be despicable for anyone but even more so to be trying to do it in the name of Jesus Christ, as Murillo does. He uses this horrific story to declare that:
"NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR THE CHURCH TO MAKE NICE WITH DEMOCRATS" - Mario Murillo
This is how Mario launches into his latest screed against anyone who might have the temerity to have a different political opinion than his own. Mario Murillo is everything that is wrong in this country today and certainly everything that is wrong in the church today. He is the reason we all stand so divided. He is the reason so many Christians are wrapped up in the hate of this world. He is the reason why 40 million people have left the church in the past 25 years. That is because he sells hate. He packages it with a pretty bow and a couple of verse fragments out of context, but at the end of the day he works only for the devil. He mocks the Democrats in his opening because some referred to Mr. Trump as Hitler, ignoring the fact that Trump's own Vice President Elect, JD Vance called him Hitler as well. Hypocrisy does not matter to Mario Murillo. Only the blind pursuit for political power and greed. Consider these absurd projections Murillo opened up with:
"Even some of their own warned them to stop inciting violence. They did not care.
The bonfire of rage was just for show"just to try to win an election. They don't care about the human carnage that they left behind.
