Governor Rick Perry’s The Response prayer rally already has support from self-proclaimed prophets and apostles like Cindy Jacobs, Mike Bickle, Che Ahn, Doug Stringer, John Benefiel, and Jay Swallow, and now we can add one of the most prominent leaders of the New Apostolic Reformation to the list of endorsers: C. Peter Wagner.

Not only is Wagner one the founders of the International Council of Apostles, but he is also a chief advocate of Seven Mountains Dominionism, which holds that fundamentalist Christians should have control over all aspects of society, and a foremost proponent of ‘Spiritual Warfare.’ Wagner’s wife, Doris, is also an endorser of The Response. She is author of How to Minister Freedom: Helping Others Break the Bonds, a collection of works that includes chapters on “Freedom From Homosexual Confusion,” “Freedom from Abortion’s Aftermath,” and “The Believers Authority over Demonic Spirits.”

Following the deadly earthquake in Japan earlier this year, Peter Wagner argued that the disaster was punishment from God because Japan “invited national demonization” and the pagan Sun Goddess had “sexual intercourse with the Emperor” of Japan. He similarly blamed Japan’s economic problems on the Emperor’s supernatural sex life: “Since the night that the present emperor slept with the sun Goddess, the stock market in Japan has gone down – never come up since.”

In his book, Hard-Core Idolatry: Facing the Facts, Wagner praised the burning of Roman Catholic, Mormon, Native American, and other non-Protestant religious objects: “The leaders explained how important it would be to do spiritual housecleaning in their homes before they came to the meeting. They began mentioning the kinds of material things that might be bringing honor to the spirits of darkness; pictures, statues, Catholic saints, Books of Mormon, pictures of former lovers, pornographic material, fetishes, drugs, Ouija boards, zodiac charms, good luck symbols, crystals for healing, amulets, talismans, tarot cards, witch dolls, voodoo items, love potions, books of magic, totem poles, certain pieces of jewelry, objects of Freemasonry, horoscopes, gargoyles, native art, foreign souvenirs, and what have you.”

But in Rick Perry’s Christians-only, proselytizing prayer rally, endorsements from extremists like Wagner should come as no surprise as the Religious Right continue their embrace of Dominionism and the New Apostolic Reformation.

    a little less religion and more biblical inquiry into the false prophets that support perry might just show that perry is a more likely candidate for our next president and the real anti christ than obama. perry is not being used by god,he is using god just like his self-righteous followers. a couple of "spirit filled acts of witchcraft" and he has a lock on the job.

    This website likes to demonize people that have the true American Spirit that our founding fathers had. That was the reason they risked it all and made our nation great. Come on people, THINK!!!! Do you remember the Reagan years? What good is communism or socialism? It makes countries go bankrupt, takes away from the hard working class and give no hope to poor.

      What exactly do your references to socialism, communism, or Ronald Reagan have to do with an article about Rick Perry teaming up with Christian Dominionists who are trying to establish a Christian theocracy? You do realize that the Founding Fathers you praise wanted to keep church and state SEPARATE, right? And that Perry wants the exact OPPOSITE?
