“Christian” Civic League Stumps for Israel
Last night the Christian Civic League of Maine hosted an event in Northern Maine featuring evangelical influencer Eric Metaxas. I first noticed Metaxas when he published his biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, which I read. I then encountered him a number of times in proximity to Trump during the Stop the Steal events in DC six years ago.
It’s what the League and Metaxas don’t address that has drawn my attention since 2009 when I resigned as Executive Director. They don’t concern themselves with institutional sin. They aren’t alone. Western Christianity seems to have developed a severe allergy to this line of thought.
Can a nation sin?
Or is it only individuals that are subject to the vagaries of a fallen world.
I’m no theologian or philosopher. I’m just an experienced political activist, retired Park Ranger and FedEx driver with deep familial roots in Augusta, Maine. My experience with political activism was gained during over two decades of service at the Christian Civic League of Maine as Executive Director. I suppose that gives me a window into that historic Maine religious institution.
It is more jewish than Christian. Metaxas, the League’s leadership and her members are knowingly advancing the political goals and objectives of a foreign nation — Israel. They are doing so in light of the now globally-exposed propagandizing of Zionists that started in the mid 1800s in Europe. The League’s supporting churches hold to dispensationalism, a perversion of Christian theology that emerged at the same time as zionism. This willful blindness makes them complicit in the Gaza genocide, and so much more evil pushed on global humanity by the American Empire since her inception.
I instinctively knew to stay away from theological debates rooted in eschatology while leading the League. I found my comfort zone in arguing publicly for Christian sexual morality. This pitted me against sodomy and abortion. The institution was supportive in every way of this work for about fifteen of the twenty years I served. The group started to turn against me at about the same time I earned the public condemnation of Portland’s jewish rabbi for noticing that jews support sodomy.
The man who I now consider to be my most formative mentor noticed these realities years before I did. He lived through experiences similar to mine decades earlier. His condemnation for noticing the sins of nations and institutions came as a result of his public condemnation of abortion. He was pitched out of academe and went on to publish a magazine and write dozens of books.
Over two decades ago Dr. E Michael Jones published The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit. I read it when it was a single thousand page volume years ago. It is now three volumes totaling nearly two thousand pages. His thesis is playing out in your stream as you scroll, unless you are trusting the algorithm. If you have carefully cultivated only FoxNews watching boomer friends on Fakebook then the truth is not showing up in your stream. You are being fed a steady diet of influencers and “friends” who reinforce your pro-Israel and jewish ideas. I strongly suggest you adjust your media diet.
You can start by watching the truthful account below that I can guarantee you the League and Metaxas won’t tell you about.
