The Seven Mountain Mandate

Bethel Worship Leader Says 100s of Veterans and Law Enforcement Gave Lives to Christ at Mar-a-Lago  (12 November 2025)

"Sean Feucht - Bethel Church's curly-blond troubadour of spectacle - took to X on November 11, shouting in all caps about a 'MOVE OF GOD' at Mar-a-Lago.  He claimed 'over 100 veterans and law enforcement gave their lives to Jesus' in Trump's ballroom, complete with healings, deliverance, and flag-waving fervor.  Now, God can do as He pleases.  He's not confined by our categories or settings.  If even one veteran truly came to Christ that night, praise God - John 6:44 still holds.  But let's not confuse God's sovereignty with man's stagecraft.  Feucht is a showman, and he knows how to sell an experience.  His roots are in Bethel Church, the epicenter of 'manifest presence' theology..."

YOUTUBE:  The 7 Mountain Mandate vs The Bible  (06 March 2022)

"Do the seven mountains of influence need to be conquered before Christ can return to set up His Kingdom?  In this video, we discuss the unbiblical 7 Mountain Mandate and compare it with Scripture."

Seven Apostolic Spheres  (25 June 2007)

"As the story goes, [Loren] Cunningham [founder of YWAM] and [Bill] Bright [founder of Campus Crusade for Christ] each had a spiritual experience in which the vision was imparted to them by God of 'seven chief categories of society' where the church needed to 'concentrate' to 'turn the nations back to God' ... (1) The home;  (2) The church;  (3) Schools;  (4) Government and politics;  (5) The media;  (6) Arts, entertainment, and sports;  (7) Commerce, science, and technology.  'These seven spheres of influence will help us shape societies for Christ' [Cunningham] ... [C. Peter] Wagner ... describes how each of these 7 mountains or spheres will become an 'apostolic sphere'.  Apostles 'are the only ones who will be able to change the power structure at the top of each mountain'.  Wagner calls these 'extended church apostles' who 'will be able to lead the army of God into those strategic battlefields'..."

Dominionism

YOUTUBE:  Dominion #3 - The Kingdom Builders  (31 January 2026)

"If the kingdom of God is the rule and reign of God, then how do WE - as human followers living in a FALLEN world - build a 'rule' or a 'reign'?  We can't.  It's the job of the King to do it - and only the King can.  There are many in the church that desire to diminish the gospel of salvation for the 'more important work' of building the kingdom - through man's effort.  It is a sad day indeed when we think we can take over for - and do the job of - the King.  With the New Testament minimized and the Old Testament laid on top of the entire Bible, there is now a new narrative - a new paradigm.  This new system gives us as the church carte blanche as well as a hands-on eschatological 'get it done' approach to the end times.  In doing so, we have elevated ourselves to the role only JESUS fills.  By taking thse 'tasks' on ourselves - including defining them and then strategizing to make them come to pass, this is precisely what we have done.  This goes beyond building GOD's kingdom through preaching the gospel so that all may hear... This even goes well beyond the unbiblical practice of supposed 'christian' nationalism - or even 'christian' supremacy.  There is nothing else to call it but a 'christian' empire.  And it is NOT of GOD."

YOUTUBE:  Dominion #2 - What Is Dominionism? Bethel Redding, Communion Revival, Jenn Johnson  (19 January 2026)

"We see so many bypassing the cross these days yet still seemingly relying on the finished work of Christ.  How can this be?  Well - we live in a new day.  From the current iterations of the New Age and esoteric blending, to the revival of the Latter Rain dominionists in the NAR, the entry into Christ, or 'the christ', is far different from 'I am the door'.  Sarah Leslie once again does a brilliant piece of work identifying the nuance of the deception by identifying the first symptom of dominionism.  Barb and Kevin have a conversation about her article, relating to their own experience in these movements and research done after leaving them."

YOUTUBE:  Dominion #1 - What Is Dominionism? A Commentary on an Article by Sarah Leslie  (17 January 2026)

"We felt the need to have some solid teaching on Dominion Theology moving forward into the Christian Supremacists video series.  An art cile that was so helpful for me (Kevin) in the desert was by Sarah Leslie of Herescope entitled 'What is Dominionism?'  Both Barb and I will be commentaing on the 20 points in this article as we move along in this series.  We cannot talk enough about the spiritual and biblical insight of the author, Sarah Leslie.  Because this particular article is in bullet point form, it is easily read, and be easily eferenced as a person walks with the Lord and discerns the false from the true.  Dominionism is heresy on every level.  There is no dominion of seven mountain mandate in scripture.  It just isn;t in the bible.  But we encouanter a major problem when a whole movement of so-called Apostles & Prophets force it into scripture - to fund their heresy into ministries, and propagate a movement that cannot be biblically justified." 

Dominionism and the Rise of Christian Imperialism  (No Date)

"This paper is a brief overview of the three main dominionist movements operating inside evangelicaldom and examines how all three of these sects are now converging around a global 'kingdom' agenda ... Only a small handful of Christian discernment and apologetics ministries, of which this writer is a part, have been paying attention to the intersection of the dominionist streams.  The apologetic ministries fulfill a Scriptural role to examine and expose false doctrines and teachers, and to warn other believers of heresies (Jude 3; 2 Peter 2:1)..."

The Deception of Dominion Theology  (No Date)

"What is Dominionism?  Dominion Theology, also called 'Kingdom Now Theology', is a false teaching stating that man is commissioned to bring the entire world under the dominion of Christianity, by force if necessary, and then hand over the Christianized world to Jesus when He comes.  Dominion Theology is predicated upon these basic beliefs:..."

Kingdom-Now

What is Kingdom Now Teaching?  (No Date)

"Kingdom Now proponents believe that God lost control over the world to Satan when Adam and Eve sinned.  Since then, the theology goes, God has been trying to reestablish control over the world by seeking a special group of believers - known variously as 'covenant people', 'overcomers' or 'Joel's army' - and that through these people, social institutions (including governments and laws) would be brought under God's authority.  The belief is that, since believers are indwelt by the same Holy Spirit that indwelt Jesus, we have all authority in heaven and on the earth; we have the power to believe for and speak into existence things that are not, and thus we can bring about the Kingdom Age..."

Thus saith the LORD,
Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way,
and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls
