EPILOGUE: America’s Two Churches

SCRIPTURE. “And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write, ‘These things says He who has the sharp two-edged sword: I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. And you hold fast to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days in which Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

But I have a few things against you, because you have there those who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit sexual immorality. Thus you also have those who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. Repent, or else I will come to you quickly and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.’” – REVELATION 2:12-17, NKJV

QUOTATIONS

SCREWTAPE (To Wormwood): “But do remember, the only thing that matters is the extent to which you ‘separate’ the man from the Enemy [God]. It does not matter how small the sins are provided that their cumulative effect is to edge the man away from the Light and out into the Nothing.Murder is no better than cards if cards do the trick.Indeed, the safest road to Hell is ‘the gradual one’ – the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts.” – C.S. LEWIS, ‘The Screwtape Letters,’ 1942; edited

NEUTRALITY. “The man who ‘refuses to judge,’ who neither agrees nor disagrees, who declares that there are no absolutes and believes that he escapes responsibility, is the man responsible for all the blood that is now spilled in the world. Reality is an absolute, existence is an absolute, a speck of dust is an absolute and so is a human life. Whether you live or die is an absolute. Whether you have a piece of bread or not, is an absolute. Whether you eat your bread or see it vanish into a looter’s stomach, is an absolute. There are two sides to every issue: One side is Right and the other is Wrong, but ‘the Middle is always Evil.’” – AYN RAND, ‘Atlas Shrugged,’ 1957; edited

SYNCRETISM. “Missiologists have in recent years begun to think seriously about Inculturation, and historians have begun to learn from them. When the Christian Message is inserted into a cultural framework, if the messengers are insensitive to the local culture the result can be Cultural Imperialism. On the other hand, if they grant too much hegemony to the local culture, the result at best is ‘Syncretism’ and at worst ‘Christo-Paganism.’” – ALAN KREIDER, ‘The Change of Conversion and the Origin of Christendom,’ 2007; edited

1. FIRST THOUGHTS

There is an old cultural saying with which we are all familiar since our childhood: “Give him an inch, and he’ll take a mile.” This saying comes to us from a collection of proverbs written by JOHN HEYWOOD in 1546. And it means just what it says:

COMPROMISE MAXIM. Bending the rules even a little can have drastic consequences.

Corollary. I remember another popular saying in Christian Charismatic and Faith-Prosperity Churches back in their heyday: “Everybody’s got a little bit of Heresy in them.” Then between the 1980s and the 2000’s, their many little and not so little Doctrinal Failures went viral, crossed into the Evangelical Church, and the groundwork for Trump Christianity was birthed.

Which is precisely when the American Church began to ‘die.’

So, let’s take a look at the very Heartbeat of the Sin of the Church at Pergamos, by considering a concept with which some of you may not yet be familiar. One that has been spreading like a cancer in the American Church for all those decades, and has rapidly metastasized in the last three years.

RELIGIOUS SYNCRETISM. “[T]he ‘blending’ of two or more religious belief systems into a New System, or the incorporation into a religious tradition of beliefs from unrelated traditions. This can occur for many reasons, and the latter scenario happens quite commonly in areas where multiple religious traditions exist in proximity and function actively in a culture, or ‘when a culture is conquered,’ and the Conquerors bring their religious beliefs with them, but do not succeed in entirely eradicating the old beliefs or (especially) practices.” – EDITORS, ‘Wikipedia,’ June 23, 2021; edited

This is the beginning of ‘Cultural, Nominal or Residual’ Christianity,’ hardly recognizable from its Original Canon. What some scholars have rightly labeled, “Civil Religion:”

“CIVIL RELIGION, also referred to as a ‘Civic Religion,’ is the implicit Religious Values of a nation, as expressed through public rituals, symbols (such as the national flag), and ceremonies on sacred days and at sacred places (such as monuments, battlefields, or national cemeteries). It is distinct from churches, although church officials and ceremonies are sometimes incorporated into the practice of civil religion. Countries described as having a civil religion include France, South Korea, January 28, 2021; edited

NOTE: Usually festooned in the garb of an intense form of Nationalism, whatever else it is, it is NOT Christianity. In America, this is a large part of what Trump Christianity has become, straining toward more and more violent expressions.

Now comes SCOTT BESSENECKER, writing for ‘InterVarsity,’ with an excellent illustration of this spiritual infection in a piece called, “Through My Lens – American Christian Syncretism,” dated January 30, 2020; edited.

“We love ‘Adapting’ the Christian Faith to our Culture, like designing our churches to Imitate cultural icons around us … With ‘Syncretism,’ however, the heart of the Gospel is gutted by certain cultural expressions. The Good News becomes obscured, bent into the shape of beliefs that aren’t consistent with Jesus and His Kingdom. In the Second Century, Christian beliefs fused with ancient Near Eastern philosophies to form Gnosticism. And in the nineteenth century, Cuban Spiritism and Yoruba religious practices mixed with Christianity to establish Santería.” 

THREE AMERICAN IDOLS. Bessenecker then specified three areas where the American Church has ended up, after decades of gradual yet insistent ‘Slippage’ away from the Canon.

1. MATERIALISM. “A ‘Culture of conspicuous consumption’ – An obsession with luxury and comfort, and the quest for riches has been normalized in America. Meanwhile we remain theologically malnourished regarding the Bible’s teachings on suffering or contentment with material simplicity or the call to free ourselves from the love of money. How often have spiritual leaders decried sexual sin while remaining ‘conveniently silent’ on storing up treasures on earth? It’s interesting to note that Jesus warned His disciples about the dangers of Materialism far more than the dangers of sexual immorality. Nonetheless, I would guess you and I are more likely to find magazines like Fortune or Money in our Church fellowship halls than porn.”

• INDIVIDUALISM. “The Bible uses the plural ‘you’ 4,600 times, which is rendered as singular since English does not have a plural ‘you’ (except for Southerners, as in ‘y’all’). So, when we read JEREMIAH 29:11, ‘For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future,’ we tend to read it as a Personal Promise. However, the verse is speaking to a Community, not an Individual. Communal prosperity, a communal future, and communal hope—those things look different than promises to an individual. Christian experiences such as lament, Sabbath, calling, mission, and even conversion at times were communal experiences not individual ones. Certainly, our Faith has personal and intimate aspects, like solitude and silence. But we have contorted many of our Faith practices and experiences to fit an Individualistic cultural form and lost something of the essence of our faith’s Communal Orientation.” DK: Slight disclaimer – I believe it is ‘both,’ not either or. God’s Word is Transcendent in that sense, and can refer to multiple levels with the same Truth simultaneously. But I take the point the author makes seriously.

• NATIONALISM. “Finally, in some corners of American Christianity, the belief in Manifest Destiny or American Exceptionalism, along with practices like placing an American flag on Church altars, begins to fuse a Secular State with the Christian Faith (see 1 Peter 2:9 or Philippians 3:20). Some see Constantine’s merger of Christianity with the Roman Empire as the sort of Syncretism Americans are indulging in today. How do we avoid serving two masters, walk out the Command to love our enemies, or proclaim, ‘Jesus is Lord’ (a political statement in the second century that got Christians in trouble for putting Jesus in place of Caesar), while pledging allegiance to a Political State? Some long-standing Christian movements, such as the Anabaptists, don’t believe it is possible for Christians to serve in the military or say the Pledge of Allegiance. And as many martyrdoms have occurred at the hands of State authorities as Religious leaders. When does seeking first God’s Kingdom and its Justice put us in ‘conflict’ with seeking the interest of our Nation? It is a question worth asking in an American Empire with so much in common with the Roman Empire of the Early Church, in which God called the Church to ‘Come out of her, My people!’ (Revelation 18:4).”

DK’S TAKE. The ‘American Dream Theology’ has been around at least since Puritan preachers such as that by JOHN WINTHROP in his “City on a Hill” Sermon in 1630, delivered before embarking on his journey to settle Boston.

But much has changed in America since then, concerning how “The American Dream” has gradually become, ‘The American Nightmare.’ Selah.

1. THE TEACHING

SCRIPTURE. “And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write, ‘These things says He who has the sharp two-edged sword: I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. And you hold fast to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days in which Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

But I have a few things against you, because you have there those who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit sexual immorality. Thus you also have those who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. Repent, or else I will come to you quickly and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.’” – REVELATION 2:12-17, NKJV

Straight to business with some KEY TERMS from this rich passage, with powerful implications for the American Church today.

• THE DOCTRINE OF BALAAM. Rendered in the Greek [Βαλαάμ] as a reference to an unrighteous Prophet; son of Beor of Pethor, on the Euphrates, a Soothsayer in the Old Testament. Also: Identified in Joshua 13:22 as one who practiced Divination (‘Qesem’). He was a Prophet in the Biblical sense, but ‘combined’ [or blended] a worship of Jehovah with practice of the Occult Powers (which are condemned by God in Deuteronomy 18:10-13). In this context, ‘The Curse’ he was hired to utter was basically Pagan in concept, because it was rooted in the notion that particular incantations could bind an enemy or drain the power of individuals and nations.” – cf. ‘The Revell Bible Dictionary,’ 1990, p. 122; edited

• STUMBLING BLOCK. This important term is from the Greek, ‘Skandalon’ [σκάνδαλον]: “A stick for bait (of a trap), generally a snare, a stumbling block, an offense; a cause for error; metaphorically, ‘any person or thing by which one is (‘entrapped’) drawn into error or sin; ‘the trigger’ set off by a person who steps into some sort of entrapment; an enticement [toward great danger]; leads to ruin and rarely denotes something unexpected (it is obvious to most); it leads others to turn away from God’s salvation and thus to come to utter destruction.” DK: I have noted before and restate it here that among many other things, I view Donald Trump as Satan’s ‘Trigger Man’ to expose and ignite the Conflagration America is now experiencing.

• DOCTINE OF THE NICOLAITANS. From a Greek name. ‘Nikolaités’ [Νικολαΐτης] that refers to “A Nicolaitan, possibly a follower of Nicolaus (a Heretic at Ephesus). Also: An unknown group whose doctrines corrupted first-century churches in Ephesus (Revelation 2:6) and Pergamum (Revelation 2:15). Early church fathers identified the group with, again, Nicolas of Antioch (Acts 6:5) and say its teaching ‘promoted compromise’ with Paganism. Some see Nocilaitans as a Greek form of the name Balaam and view the Heresy as sexual [or spiritual] licentiousness.” DK: Note especially you theologians: God ‘hates’ their doctrines. So do I. – ‘Revell,’ 1990, p. 733; edited

• REPENT, OR DIE. Again, we have a literal Threat from Yeshua to His Church, that if Change does not come right away: “I will come to you quickly and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth.” The Key Term hers is, ‘Polemeó [πολεμέω], literally translated as: “I [God] make war, contend, battle [against the Apostates]; to wrangle, quarrel [argue]; to strive or contend for victory, in battle or in single combat; to attempt to defeat, subdue or destroy an enemy, either by blows or weapons; to contend in arms; to act in fierce opposition to (those who opposed God and Truth).” DK: If you wish to know where my Spiritual Militancy comes from, it is right here, beloved. A ‘soft church’ cannot withstand the onslaught of Last Days Deceptions. And we are ‘doctrinally illiterate,’ my friends, easy prey for the doctrines of demons. – cf. 1 Timothy 4:1

COMMENTARY. “‘Repent, therefore, of these irregularities; or else I will come unto thee quickly’ — In the way of Chastisement; ‘and will fight against them’ — Those corrupt members; ‘with the sword of My mouth’ — With My Word, pronouncing terrible Calamities against them, and executing what I have Threatened. The Word of God is the great engine wherewith Christ fights against, wounds, and overcomes all Antichristian powers. ‘He that hath an ear’ — That is disposed to receive useful instruction; ‘let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches’ — Let him carefully regard the arguments and warnings given by the Spirit of Prophecy. ‘To him that overcometh,’ and eateth not of these sacrifices, ‘will I give to eat of the hidden manna’ — He shall be made a partaker of those sacred pleasures which God’s sanctuary above affords, and of which the manna that fell in the wilderness, and was laid up in a Golden Vessel before the Lord, was only an imperfect type; even the full, glorious, everlasting fruition of God, and those comforts which flow from him … Eminent Honour following thereon.” – ALBERT BARNES, ‘’Notes on the Old and New Testaments,’ 1884; edited

Once again, as we are only Three Churches in – Ephesus, Smyrna and Pergamos – The Battle Rages all around a central focus of the entire Biblical Drama: ‘Sound Doctrine!’ That is where The Fight takes place, and the Duty of Pastors here is immeasurable.

Let me turn to the Great Reformer to drive home this vital point.

LUTHER’S WAR CRY. “If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the Truth of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. ‘Wherever the battle rages,’ there the loyalty of the soldier is proved and to be steady on all the battlefield besides is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that one point.” – ELIZABETH RUNDLE CHARLES, ‘The Chronicles of the Schoenberg Cotta Family,’ quoted from a character in her novel named “Fritz,” set in 16^th century monastic Europe, frequently attributed to Martin Luther, 1864; edited

This was the Core of the Sin of the Church at Pergamos: They would not speak out where it counted the most! Sound familiar, beloved?

1. THE APPLICATION

To conclude this final section, I want us to address THE QUESTION: How has the American Christian’s overwhelming embrace of the Pagan Donald Trump affected the Church?

Not at all a loaded question. After five straight years of the most intensive research and writing I have ever done in my 50-year career as a political communication scholar, it is the ONLY question that American Christendom must address, if we are to successfully grapple with the titanic impact this one man has had on us all.

PAGANISM. You see that I already conclude that Trump is not a Christian, at all, ever. I have made that case repeatedly in columns for the past year or more, so I wont revisit the evidence or arguments; it is, for me, a ‘fait accompli.’

Here is a much more accurate definition of the man’s ‘Spirituality,’ such as it is.

“‘Pagan’ comes from the Latin word ‘Paganus,’ which means ‘Country Dweller.’ ‘Paganism’ can refer to Polytheism or the Worship of more than one god, such as in ancient Rome. A Pagan is also considered to be one who, for the most part, has ‘no religion’ i.e., functional atheists] and indulges in worldly delights and material possessions; someone who revels in sensual pleasures; a Hedonistic or self-indulgent individual. Another, more modern term is ‘Neo-paganism,’ which refers to some of the contemporary forms of Paganism such as Wicca, Druidry, and Gwyddon … The Old Testament references these perverted religions in such passages as Deuteronomy 23:17, Amos 2:7–8, and Isaiah 57:7–8.” – EDITORS, ‘Got Questions,’ ret. August 16, 2021; edited

THE THEOLOGY OF DONALD TRUMP. To further advance my argument that former President Trump, still the very Darling of the American Church, the Republican Party, and the vast majority of the Commercial Centers of America, I turn to one of our most eminent theologians, MICHAEL HORTON.

Since this section is so vital to my Thesis, permit me to introduce you to Dr. Horton’s exceptional credentials. Michael Scott Horton (born May 11, 1964) is the J. Gresham Machen Professor of Theology and Apologetics at Westminster Seminary California since 1998, Editor-in-Chief of ‘Modern Reformation’ (MR) magazine, and President and host of the nationally syndicated radio broadcast, The White Horse Inn. 

TRUMP’S FOUR RELIGIOUS TENETS. Horton’s article is a brilliant dissection of Donald Trump’s Religious Worldview. Also, he points out that the overall Impact of Trump upon his embrace by the American Church is summed up in his Trump’s severe ‘Secularization’ or Redefinition of FOUR THEOGICAL TERMS.

All, all, beloved, with Church Acquiescence of course.

1. CREATION. “Trump reveals that many Evangelicals have come to embrace a New Doctrine of Creation, according to which ‘The State’ accords basic rights instead of recognizing their dignity as fellow image-bearers of God. Hence, the support of the torture of human beings (and perhaps their relatives) as legitimate State Policy; this is entirely justified to some by the circumstances of an unlimited War on Terror. Never mind the Christian Just-War Tradition that has undergirded centuries of Western reflection. And given the apparent failure of even his most recent ambiguous statements about the KKK to diminish support among his base, Trump reveals that America’s unfinished task of wrestling honestly with Racism is just as clearly mirrored in some parts of Evangelicalism.”

• SIN. “Trump reveals that many Evangelicals have come to embrace a different ‘Idea of Sin’ than Evangelicals have in the past. First, sin is now seen less a condition that renders us all ‘miserable offenders’ before a Holy God than ‘Mistakes’ good people make that fail to contribute to ‘our best life now.’ Card-carrying Evangelicals should have gotten it when Trump announced that he has never asked God for forgiveness because he doesn’t really do anything that would require it. This is problematic from a Christian Perspective on several levels. First, even if we were to reduce sin (a condition) to sins, the latter no longer include multiple divorces, significant past support of the abortion industry, lack of any church membership, and unabashed dedication to a ‘Me First’ Ethic. Widespread Evangelical support suggests that we’re fine with these practices now—they’re normal. Second, and even more troubling, ‘Sinners’ are now apparently the ‘Others’ [the Unsaved and the Remnant] whose very presence makes us feel afraid and disenfranchised. Deflecting sin from ourselves to others, we have helped to provide a foundation for whatever demagogue can rally people ‘like us’ to self-righteous anger against Outsiders.

• CHRIST. “Jesus has become a Brand and cultural-political Mascot. The term ‘Evangelical’ used to mean that the Global Community of those ‘from every tribe, tongue, and nation’ (Rev. 5:9) were united by ‘One Lord, one faith, one baptism’ (Eph. 4:5) through faith in Christ alone as the all-sufficient Savior from the condemnation and death that our sins deserve. Our ultimate demographic is ‘in Christ.’ This trumps (no pun intended) our Identity as Americans, or as Democrats and Republicans. But Trump reminds us that many who call themselves Evangelicals today find their ultimate loyalty in preserving or regaining a lost socio-political and cultural, perhaps even racial, ‘Hegemony’ [Dominance] in an increasingly diverse society. By his [other] ‘gospel’, Christ speaks to our deepest need to be united to him and to each other in his body.” – cf. Galatians 1:8

• LEADERSHIP. “Trump reveals that ‘Godly Leadership’ is apparently for some [most] Evangelicals the celebration of narcissism, greed, and deceitfulness in the pursuit of power. They like Trump’s ‘strong leadership’ and ability to ‘get things done.’ They seem to value Pragmatism over anything else. By contrast, in the Gospel of John (chapter 13), Jesus enacts a ‘Performance Parable’ about power as will be demonstrated in His coming Death and Resurrection. Taking off his outer garment, he wraps a towel around his waist and begins to wash His disciples’ feet in preparation for the Passover meal. Repeatedly, Peter had taken the spotlight off of Jesus and put it on himself. He had rebuked Jesus several times for bringing up his impending Crucifixion. And now the boisterous Peter protests, ‘You will never wash my feet!’ Jesus replies, ‘Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.’ The verbs for ‘taking off’ and ‘taking up’ his garments in the passage are the same Jesus used in John 10: ‘No one takes my life from me. I have authority to lay it down and to take it up again.’” – ‘Christianity Today,’ March 16, 2016; edited

Horton offers this stunning Conclusion: “Trump reveals, in short, that for many Evangelicals, the word ‘Evangelical’ means something that many increasingly do not recognize as properly Christian, much less Evangelical. Then again, if the working Theology of American Spirituality is a combination of ‘Moralistic, Therapeutic Deism’ (Christian Smith) and Pragmatism (William James), then perhaps Donald Trump is after all exactly the right candidate for the moment.”

DK’S TAKE. To be clear, beloved, to the extent that Trump Christianity has invaded and taken First Theological Chair in our Churches today, we must agonizingly conclude: The uniquely wicked Donald Trump has TRANSFORMED the American Church into a Neo-Pagan Heresy, no longer adherent to the Biblical Canon that defined us for 2,000 years.

Just one man, filled with the doctrines of demons, has conquered American Christendom. Selah.

1. FINAL THOUGHTS

With that as our centermost focus, I turn to the equally eminent Jewish scholar who once attended an Episcopal Church in his younger years, DAVID BROOKS, Op-Ed columnist for ‘The New York Times’ in September 2003. He is currently a commentator on ‘PBS NewsHour,’ NPR’s ‘All Things Considered’ and NBC’s ‘Meet the Press.’

Please understand my reason for detailed professional credentials. In an Era where so many Evangelicals are behaving like unthinking, illiterate Luddites, I need to reestablish a Rational Beachhead that cannot be easily assailed.

THE CHURCH OF TRUMP. So do I Conclude with Mr. Brooks’ exquisitely painful analysis of what Trump has ultimately done to the American Church. This is from his recent piece, “Trump Ignites a War Within the Church, published in the Palm Beach Post on January 16, 2021; edited.

It isn’t pretty, beloved, because America and her Church are no longer pretty. On the contrary, she has become a grotesque, dark shadow of her New Messiah. Brooks begins to show this through the tragic case study of JEREMIAH JOHNSON, a popular evangelist who after the horrors of January 6, 2021, profoundly apologized for his staggering error in supporting the arrogance of Donald Trump.

Watch ever so carefully the Church of Trump’s response.

“Over the last 72 hours, I have received multiple death threats and thousands upon thousands of emails from Christians saying the nastiest and most vulgar things I have ever heard toward my family and ministry. I have been labeled a coward, sellout, a traitor to the Holy Spirit, and cussed out at least 500 times … I have been flabbergasted at the barrage of continued Conspiracy Theories being sent every minute our way and the pure hatred being unleashed. To my great heartache, I’m convinced parts of the Prophetic/Charismatic Movement are far SICKER than I could have ever dreamed of.” – J. Johnson, ‘Facebook,’ January 7, 2021

CODA. There is ever so much more in the published literature, beloved, but as I have argued for months, even five years and more: It is as if the Church cannot read nor think anymore! She has, again, apparently ‘Lost Her Mind’ – the Mind and Heart of God, that is.

And she has done so, as the Ancient Nicolaitans did, by an Unholy Synthesis of Christianity and the Secular Paganism of Donald Trump.

As Brooks Muses: “[We] have to be reminded of the Basic Rules for perceiving Reality. They have to be reminded that ‘all Truth is God’s Truth;’ that inquiry strengthens Faith, that it is narcissistic self-idolatry to think you can create your own truth based on what you ‘feel.’ There will probably have to be Pastors and local Leaders who model and admire evidence-based Reasoning, wrestling with Ideas.”

DK’S TAKE. Yet do I have the gravest of doubts that Church Leaders will risk it, beloved. By all that I have read and observed for five years running now, they simply have ‘no stomach for principled courage.’ None.

Thus we presently bear witness to a horribly divided, weakened, and volatile Nation standing at the Precipice of Himmelfarb’s Great Abyss, desperate for ‘A Leader’ who shall save us.

But ‘Who’ shall that Leader be, beloved: The Christ, or His Nemesis? I am convinced that we shall know America’s Choice in the next few years just ahead.

Ever your servant, DK
