How George Soros 'Rents' Evangelicals to Confuse Voters [2018]
Charisma News ^ | 10.22.2018

Posted on 12/20/2019 11:15:34 PM PST by libh8er

Today the American Association of Evangelicals (AAE) released an explosive three-minute video: Soros' 'Rented Evangelicals,' exploring the Soros network's funding of "evangelical mascots" and a "Rent-an-Evangelical" tactic to confuse and divide the Christian vote for the pro-faith, pro-life Republican party.

Democrat ministers Rev. Jim Wallis and allies are now touring many states on "Vote Common Good" buses to "flip Congress" and "reclaiming Jesus" to split the evangelical vote before the mid-term elections.

The AAE video features the newly released voice recording of Wallis of Sojourners as he publicly denied that he was a recipient of Soros funding. Soon after, grants disappeared, but journalists found hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants from Soros' Open Society Foundation to Sojourners. Rev. Wallis later replied, "I didn't recall," as he finally admitted the Soros connection.

Kelly Monroe Kullberg, a spokesperson for the AAE, said, "Americans hate manipulation. Most now realize that the demoralization of America is not inevitable; it is being purchased. Anti-American globalists like Soros are funding a growth industry of paid anarchists and political activists to divide and weaken America, including the church. This brief video is a powerful tool and wake-up call to the church and nation."

In a longer 15-minute video on the AAE site, Soros' Formula for Killing America, radio host Eric Metaxas, author of the best-selling Bonhoeffer, said, "God help us ... please watch this video. Our country hangs in the balance." James Garlow, former pastor of Skyline Church, said: "Thank God for these fearless producers exposing one of the most sinister, destructive forces to the republic. Listen carefully. Your nation depends on it."

Kullberg, also editor and co-author of Finding God at Harvard and co-founder of American Evangelicals, added, "If Christians follow the advice of Soros' ministers, they will unwittingly elect politicians who favor taxpayer funded abortion on demand, gender confusion for children, higher taxes, open borders, criminal 'sanctuary' cities, drug legalization and legal attacks on religious freedom. What an anti-Christian and anti-human policy agenda to weaken people and nations. How unloving and cruel."

Rejecting cherry-picking Bible verses for political power, the AAE urges a return to "the whole counsel of Scripture as the highest love for human beings."

The video can be seen at: AmericanEvangelicals.com.

AAE is a growing, informal coalition of Christians who share the gospel, advance biblical worldview and engage opposition to the faith and nation. The AAE receives no political, government or large foundation funding. Its letter, "A Call to Repentance & Renewal," has over 4,000 signatories.

“Can money really make the world overlook how evil you are?”

I suspect that’s how Satan rigs it to work.

"Reverend" Jim Wallis is a hard, hard core lefty (think "Father" Michael Pfleger). He makes Red Frank look like a moderate. He's going to find out on Judgment Day that Jesus is NOT amused.

Our governor in Ok started out to be an ok guy but yesterday announced more "refugees" are welcome here. According to the articles, he did so under pressure from faux "Christian" charities cabals.

I suspect these phony churches are getting support from soros. And the gov was supposed to be conservative. Guess not.

When I’m feeling bold I ask my devout Catholic acquaintances who are rabid Democrats how they reconcile that. Their stammering and excuse making is epic, to say the least. One guy told me “Well, abortion is just one thing”. My response was “60 million dead babies is a pretty big thing”. To which he had no response.

Every time I read the name “soros,” in my mind, I substitute his REAL name, Schwartz.

Somehow it makes me feel better. Like this:

Schwartz is buying evangelicals to spread his filthy word.

I’m not surprised.

I wonder if Soros also gave to Rick Warren and Joel Osteen.

He has a son that is in his organization and is just as bad as he is.

He could no longer donate to US elections. He’s bought a number of district attorneys of late.

It sounds conspiracy theorish but would not surprise me in the least.

Sorry, I was fooled by the title. At around 17 minutes, it shows a 3-minute video clip from it.

The term ‘evangelical’ is so broad these days it’s lost its meaning.

Like the gay-affirming “Evangelical” Church of Hillsong. Or like David Uth and his SBC views on same-sex marriage.

The church of Laodicea is huge.
