DECONSTRUCTING THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
Christians Suck at Protecting the Brand of Jesus Christ
The Brand of “God” is a Divine Knockoff with Marketing Straight from Hell
Come on, and Go to Church with Me!
Church: A fashion show featuring the best-dressed sinners –to lead the non-believers out of their money!
As a "Christian mediator" certified by the Texas State Bar, I have years of experience navigating the Church's intricate web of power dynamics. The role is similar to that of a detective; I was trained to resolve church dramas. And let me tell you, some of these dramas are juicier than a Sunday potluck in the rain.
The secret to understanding Christianity is all about observing the power dynamics.
Churches are to blame for their problems. Legalism got in the way of the most incredible love story for the sake of power and profit.
Uninformed, uneducated, and unprepared people are easy to manipulate.
The Church teaches blind obedience to increase its offering plate. It wants followers who are easily controlled and unaware of the issues. This allows them to hide their wrongdoing and make more tax-free money.
Over the last two decades, I've seen so much politizing from the pulpit that it has made most Christians nose-blind to the rot.
The Brand of God is a Divine Knockoff with Marketing Straight from Hell
To marketing professionals, a brand is a product or business with a distinct identity in consumers' perception. The Brand is created through elements of design, packaging, and advertising that, as a whole, distinguish the product from its competitors.
It's pretty wild that anyone can slap the label "god" on a product and make a billion. There's no copyright or trademark protection for the Big Guy upstairs.
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits.” Matthew 7:15–20
It's cheating to own the Brand of God and not have to give a disclaimer for product infringement!
When they invoke the name of God, Jesus, the Bible, prayer, or any derivative, it's an abuse of Brand loyalty, name recognition, brand exclusivity, and a long history that has made "God" one of the world's most recognizable and influential brands.
The Royal Family represents the Church of England. A “Firm” of attorneys, historians, and all around Brittish know-it-alls say what the Royal family can and cannot do because of how they reflect on the Crown — the Brand.
The Royal Family is seen as a symbol of the Church of England, and their actions reflect on the entire Church. This is one of the reasons they are closely monitored, and any public behavior considered to reflect poorly on the Church of England is discouraged.
Christians no longer reflect the teachings of Jesus. Now, they reflect the Fox "News" brand.
Can you tell the difference between the Brand of God and the actual Creator of the Universe? Who is protecting the intellectual property, the Brand of God?
God The Father seeks to provide high-quality Christian streetwear apparel for believers and followers of Christ. I want our Christian clothing to spark a conversation.
Fear of God is an independent American luxury fashion label Jerry Lorenzo founded in 2013 in Los Angeles and is slated to be worth one billion dollars.
"#Jesus, the Brand, is not just a Christian clothing brand; it's a lifestyle!"
TBN (Trinity Broadcast Network) is worth billions and holds a viewership of over 95 million Americans.
TBN is a tax-exempt Christian "charity."
Side Note: Christian broadcast networks are a big part of America’s TV ecosystem. They are typically politically and socially conservative.
And pay little to no taxes.
HeGetsUs.org is an organization that is spending over $1,000,000,000 on "fixing the image of Jesus," is partially owned by the owner of Hobby Lobby, the man in charge of the corporation responsible for tearing down the wall of separation of Church and state for profit in the Supreme Court.
Of course, they’re the cause of their own problem — not only has the Servant Foundation funded hate groups, but the PR firm, Haven, has represented these organizations. Key Shadow Network members Focus on the Family and Alliance Defending Freedom are in their portfolio. ADF is a noted anti-LGBTQ hate group that has argued repeatedly in courts that religion, and specifically Christianity, is a license to discriminate; they have one such case pending before the Supreme Court right now.
A hate group is pouring a billion dollars into a campaign to "rebrand Jesus." Still, in reality, they're funneling a billion dollars into brainwashing people with a distorted version of "god" that leaves them battered, bruised, and broke.
Harper Collins owns the NIV Bible, worth $1.6 billion, and doesn't pay taxes. Although their parent company, News Corp, is worth $15.02 billion, through manipulating the tax code — it also pays little to no taxes.
Jerry Falwell Jr., the former President of Liberty University, played a significant role in rallying the Christian right to support Donald Trump during his presidency. While Falwell and his wife exploited and preyed the children entrusted to their care, they were empowering evil to spread in the church.
In a world corrupted by false prophets and unchecked power, where are the "Christians," the protectors of the Word, the stewards that are responsible for protecting the values of the Church?
The Southern Baptist Abuse reports over 700 investigations into sexual assault. It reads like a horror book of power minus accountability for the sake of our sons and daughters with a yearly operating budget of over $10 billion.
“Each entry in this list reminds us of the devastation and destruction brought about by sexual abuse. Our prayer is that the survivors of these heinous acts find hope and healing, and that churches will utilize this list proactively to protect and care for the most vulnerable among us,” they said.
Most "Christian" organizations enjoy "tax-free" status, and their leaders enjoy protections from criminal prosecutions — it's a win/win for the white-collar criminals and an immeasurable loss for the victims.
When you add the intrinsic power of the "Brand of God" with the deep pockets of billionaires — is it any surprise they exploit it? Why go for Nike or Tesla when you can own "GOD?"
In the Bible, the script for Christians, Jesus warned us and then told us how to "easily" identify them — by their fruits — their results. Their fruits — not their billionaire status, which may be what disqualifies them.
Matthew 19:24 states, “And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.”
Who is the Alpha and Omega?
My big moment was learning the difference between the "Brand of God" and the Creator of the Universe.
George Burns, Whoppie Goldberg, and Morgan Freeman have all played God in the movies — but as much as we love these actors, it doesn't make Morgan Freeman into God.
What the casting lacks in originality, it more than makes up for in consistency and corruption.
It is their fruits that prove their intent, not their viewership.
White nationalism is not a coincidence but a calculated agenda that undermines God's teachings.
Yes, there is a God and no matter if you call him "Yahweh," "Jehovah," "Allah," or "Father," there is only one.
God, the deity, is very different from "God," the Brand.
The deity was hijacked when Rupert Murdoch bought the Brand of "God."
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. — Edmund Burke
Being in a barn doesn't make you a cow any more than going to Church or claiming "Christian" makes you "Christ-like." That will be decided by your results, or, in Christian terms, "You should be judged by your fruits."
There is no faith in organized religion.
Organized religion is like a bad reality TV show. These guys took biblical principles, twisted them like a pretzel, and sold them to us like a cheap infomercial. And guess what? The ratings were more important than actually practicing what they preached.
It's like they were playing God but with an awful script. And surprise, surprise, white nationalism conveniently became their favorite plot twist. Can you say "holy conspiracy"?
The ability to identify between the Brand of "God" and the Creator of the Universe is simple. It requires you to deconstruct your faith from your politics — rebuild the wall of separation of Church and state that our nation was started on, and then — if you're so and Jesus told us how.
Know them by their works, not their viewership.
- Does the Church give back?
- How does the community benefit from the Church?
- How often does the Church file an itemized accounting of funds?
- Does the Church tell you how to vote? There is a difference between encouraging parishioners to exercise their constitutional rights and using the pulpit as a bully to con people; most preachers know better.
