O Foolish Galatians ?
“There is neither Judahite nor Gentile, neither slave nor free,
nor is there male and female, for you are all ONE in Christ Jesus.””
– Galatians 3: 28
There are four groups in the world today, that are pretending to be Israelites/Hebrews.
1/ The Ashkenazi Jews, using the “Jew” label since the late 18th Century in order to appear to be Judahite Hebrews.
2/ Some Blacks, like our dear donnie here, who deceive themselves into believing that they are Black Hebrew Israelites, aka Hebrew Israelites, Black Hebrews, Black Israelites, and African Hebrew Israelites
3/ Some Europeans. This Israelites/Hebrews pretense is found mostly in British Israelism and/or is an offshoot of Nordic Israelism, both are a pseudoarchaeological belief that they are people who are “genetically, racially, and linguistically, the direct descendants” of the Ten Lost Tribes of ancient Israel.
4/ Some Asians, who think they’re Hebrews and are found mostly in the Philippines.

US election: Pastor Chris Oyakhilome reveals why Trump is ‘hated’ by many
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of Believers Love World popularly known as Christ Embassy has said that US President, Donald Trump, is hated by many because of his support for Christians and the tenets of the Christian faith.
Oyakhilome in a viral video said many are angry at Trump because he didn’t come for their sponsorship.
According to the cleric, things will not be calm if Trump is out of office.
”There are those who think that Trump, the President of the United States, is hated by many Americans. He is not hated by many Americans. I want to tell you the truth. He is not hated, Trump is not the problem. They don’t hate Trump. They hate those that Trump seems to support.
”They are angry at Trump for supporting Christians. So the real ones they hate are you who are Christians. That is what the hatred of Trump is all about. It’s got nothing to do with Trump.
”Before he started giving his voice in support of Christians and before he started giving his voice in support of Israel, he was their darling, they loved him. But because he didn’t come for their sponsorship and they didn’t expect him to become President, they blamed the Christians for voting him into office and that is what they hate him for.
”If you are a Christian, better know this. Don’t think that if we just get Trump out of the way then everything will just calm. It will not be calm. They hate you and he seems to protect you, that is the problem.”he added.
Meanwhile, Joe Biden emerged winner of the keenly contested election on Saturday after polling over 270 electoral college votes.
Although the general elections ended on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, it took county officials 4 days to tally the ballots.
Benny Hinn’s Stance: Benny Hinn has made headlines for his critical remarks about the commercialization of faith, which some have interpreted as indirectly criticizing Trump and other prosperity gospel proponents. Hinn has emphasized a return to a more authentic form of Christianity, though he hasn’t explicitly targeted Trump in his recent statements (RELEVANT) (Apple).
Despite Donald Trump’s polarizing reputation and legal challenges, he continues to receive support from a significant segment of evangelical Christians. For many white evangelical Christians, Trump’s policies, particularly his stance on abortion, outweigh concerns about his personal behavior. This has led to a steadfast base of support within this community, who view him as a necessary fighter in the current political climate (MPR News).
However, some prominent evangelical leaders who previously supported Trump have distanced themselves. Mike Evans, who helped mobilize evangelical support for Trump in 2016, has criticized Trump for using evangelical support for political gain without embodying their values. Similarly, Robert Jeffress, a televangelist and member of Trump’s Evangelical Advisory Board, has withheld his endorsement, reflecting a growing divide within the evangelical community (Business Insider).
In contrast, other Christian leaders continue to stand by Trump. Figures like Shelley Buhrow and Luana Stoltenberg emphasize that no one is perfect, citing biblical figures with flawed pasts as justification for their support. They view Trump’s brashness and combative style as assets needed in today’s political arena (MPR News).
While Trump’s support among evangelicals remains significant, the division within this group highlights a complex and evolving relationship with the former president as he seeks another term.
Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has generally remained neutral in political matters, including his stance on former U.S. President Donald Trump. While there is no direct evidence of Adeboye explicitly supporting Trump, he has been known to offer prayers for leaders and countries without delving into partisan endorsements.
In contrast, some Nigerian pastors have publicly shown support for Trump. Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy has been an ardent supporter, praising Trump for his policies and stance on religious freedom. Bishop David Oyedepo of Living Faith Church (Winners’ Chapel) has also expressed admiration for Trump’s administration, particularly for its pro-Christian policies.
Overall, while specific comments from Pastor Adeboye regarding Trump are sparse, it is clear that opinions among Nigerian pastors vary, with some offering vocal support based on their views of his policies aligning with their religious values
Numerous Christian pastors and prophetic voices have claimed that Donald Trump would be president in both the 2020 and 2024 elections. Some prominent figures include:
- Jeremiah Johnson: He believed that either a lying spirit had influenced many trusted prophetic voices or that Trump genuinely won and there was an attempt to steal the election. Johnson recounted a dream where Trump was supported supernaturally by baby boomers to finish a race, symbolizing his continued support for Trump’s presidency (Christian Post).
- Robin Bullock: This pastor maintained that Trump is the “rightful president” and that prophetic voices could call him back to the White House for multiple terms. Bullock has asserted that despite not holding office, Trump is still president in a spiritual sense and that believers should pray for his return (Crosswalk).
- Mike Thompson: Thompson also claimed that Trump’s re-election was prophesied and that the election results would ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court. He emphasized that the prophecies were about a broader revival rather than just a political outcome (Christian Post).
While some prophets like Kris Vallotton of Bethel Church retracted their predictions and apologized for inaccuracies, others continue to stand by their prophecies, believing that Trump’s return to power is still possible through divine intervention and legal challenges (Christian Post).
Several prominent Christian leaders, including Kenneth Copeland, Paula White, and Joyce Meyer, made various prophecies and public endorsements regarding Donald Trump during the 2020 and 2024 election cycles.
Kenneth Copeland: Copeland, a well-known televangelist, was vocal about his belief that Donald Trump was chosen by God to be president. He often discussed the idea that Trump’s presidency was part of a divine plan. In his broadcasts, he emphasized that Christians should support Trump, highlighting the spiritual battle he believed was taking place in America and framing Trump as a pivotal figure in this struggle (Kenneth Copeland Ministries).
Paula White: Paula White, a Pentecostal pastor and spiritual advisor to Trump, strongly supported his presidency. She described Trump as being under constant spiritual attack and portrayed his struggles as part of a larger cosmic battle. White’s rhetoric often included the notion that Trump was anointed by God to lead the nation and that his adversaries were part of a spiritual warfare against God’s plan (Religion News Service).
Joyce Meyer: Although not as overtly political as Copeland or White, Joyce Meyer has occasionally voiced her support for Trump, focusing on his policies that align with conservative Christian values. While Meyer did not make specific prophecies about Trump’s presidency, she has supported the broader evangelical narrative that viewed Trump favorably in the context of religious freedom and pro-life issues (Kenneth Copeland Ministries).
These leaders’ prophecies and endorsements reflect a broader trend among certain evangelical circles, which saw Trump’s presidency as divinely ordained and his political battles as part of a spiritual conflict.
The prophecies made by Kenneth Copeland, Paula White, and other evangelical leaders about Donald Trump’s presidency did not come true as they predicted. Specifically:
- Kenneth Copeland: Copeland and other leaders claimed that Trump would win the 2020 election and remain president. However, Trump lost the 2020 presidential election to Joe Biden. Copeland’s prediction, along with others, did not materialize as they had stated.
- Paula White: Paula White was very vocal in her support for Trump and often spoke about his victory as part of a divine plan. Despite her prophecies and fervent prayer campaigns, Trump did not win re-election in 2020. White’s intense spiritual and prophetic rhetoric did not align with the actual outcome of the election.
- Joyce Meyer: While Meyer did not make specific prophecies about Trump’s presidency, she supported the broader evangelical view that saw Trump as a divinely chosen leader. Since her support was more about his policies rather than specific election outcomes, it didn’t involve direct prophecies that could be proven right or wrong.
Many of these leaders faced backlash and criticism for their incorrect predictions. Some, like Jeremiah Johnson, issued apologies and retracted their statements, acknowledging the mistake in their prophetic declarations (Christian Post) (Religion News Service) (Kenneth Copeland Ministries).
