Pastor Rick Joyner Urges American Christians to Prepare for Civil War

MorningStar Ministries founder and pastor, Rick Joyner, pleaded with the "true disciples of Christ" in America to rise up and prepare for war with the "evil" forces which he baselessly claimed "stole" the November election from former President Donald Trump.
The longtime Fort Mill, South Carolina, pastor was introduced by evangelical televangelist Jim Bakker on his Monday broadcast as a Christian "prophet." Joyner claimed without evidence there is a "unified belief and deep conviction" among "true" U.S. Christians that the presidential election was rigged by President Joe Biden and the Democrats. Joyner urged Trump supporters and Christians alike to buy up arms in preparation for a coming "civil war."
Longtime Missouri-based program host Bakker, who is a convicted felon and was sued last March for selling a "coronavirus cure" to his viewers, pressed Joyner to explain how "cancel culture" is destroying the foundations of America.
"It will be a civil war and it's going to be increasingly worse with the increasing time it takes for Americans to stand up and push back against this evil that has taken over our land," Joyner said on Monday's The Jim Bakker Show . "You know, there's a time for peace and a time for war it says in [Book of the Bible] Ecclesiastes, well, we're not headed towards peace right now, we're headed towards conflict of war. And we need to prepare for it. We need to put out the word that people need to be prepared."
Joyner referenced several verses of scripture from the Bible to warn of a second impending U.S. Civil War, including Ecclesiastes 3:8, which says there's "a time to love, and a time to hate, a time of war, and a time of peace."
Joyner highlighted a round table discussion he held last week with fellow MorningStar Ministries members, an organization he helped create in 1985. Joyner claimed there was unanimous agreement that "our last election was stolen and it was something that we can't just let go. We have lost our country. We have lost our republic if we lose the integrity of the elections and this was the worst voting fraud in our country's history."
"Trump really won by a huge margin," Joyner stressed, offering no corroborating evidence of the unfounded claim. "Maybe one of the biggest margins ever. How did it get stolen from us like it did?"
Bakker then focused the show toward ongoing claims of "cancel culture" within American society and questioned Joyner on, "why are 'they' trying to erase the foundations this country was built upon?"
The streaming program's chyron advertised a two-disc DVD set called the "thirteen revelation generation" on the screen as Joyner replied.
"Because they were godly foundations, what we have is evil. It's moving, it's Isaiah, 'darkness covering the earth, deep darkness the people, Isaiah 5, ultimate depravity where they're calling good evil and evil good. Honoring the dishonorable, dishonoring the honorable. And all of this is a major threat, the freedoms we have are a major threat to evil."
Joyner repeatedly proclaimed that the "body of Christ," or followers of Christ, will be "separated from the chaff" in the coming civil war.
"There is a unified belief with deep conviction that our last election was a stolen election and it was something that we can't just let go. ... Anybody who looks at the evidence, even superficially, sees right away that was impossible for Trump not to have won that election," Joyner said.
Newsweek reached out to Joyner's MorningStar Ministries Tuesday afternoon for additional remarks.

crap. I sold all my varmint rifles in 2015, and a 5 gallon bucket of macaroni and powdered cheese for $75 seems a little over priced. oh well, we all must be prepared to sacrifice when eradicating the thumper menace from america.
Did you get your mac & cheese bucket from Jim Baker?
negative. the blue and yellow boxes are much cheaper by the case.
Buckets O' Slop!
These You Tube preachers fall into two categories. Nutcases or grifters. Some of them may be in both categories. None of them are a credit to the Christian religion.
Pretty sure you can say the same for televangelists and their mega churches.
I say the same for all of them. And possibly of those who follow them too.
You are correct, but even if they are lunatics, they are still after people’s wallets first and foremost. Their god is and always will be green.
Praise the Lord and pass the collection plate.
Yup, their god has always been green . . . and he folds . . .
I didn't realize the United States existed during Biblical times.
Hey...Joyner! Ammo is getting as scarce as hen's teeth. So you might be able to buy an AR-15 but you'll probably end up using it as a club
... a time to redecorate the madrasa interiors with some dominionist wall and ceiling texture.
Sounds lumpy and kinda gross
He has a punchable face.
His nose is definitely a good sized target
I wonder if he and jim are continuing the tradition of tag-teaming the church secretary.
Remember Jessica Hahn?
The end always has to be nigh for these hucksters. If people weren’t constantly afraid they wouldn’t be giving assholes like this nearly as much money for gods “protection”.
Jesus was a war monger, didn't see that one coming.
Their Jesus is such a small minded petty vengeful hateful spiteful arrogant cuss ain't he?
Onward Christian Soldiers, I shall lead you from behind, way behind.
I would be one of those Corgis going off trail.
Why don't these idiots just wait for the Rapture? Then all of their problems will be solved
Don't...post...song...
Don't...post...song...
Ah screw it,
I believe the 'Rapture' is supposed to occur in Israel and 'alas' her borders are closed due to the 'Rupture' pandemic ... in the meantime, avoid ingesting scallops.
The terrifying part is that they don't want to WAIT. They want it now.
Indeed. Anyone hoping or wishing for an apocalypse of some kind is seriously disturbed.
"The terrifying part is that they don't want to WAIT. They want it now."
fuck that. get me an address and they'll be meeting geebus right after they answer the f'n door.
Its fumny how Isaiah 60:2 is featured in the clip above. It basically describes an eclipse. An event thst is scientifically explained. But leave it to religion to make it melodramatic.
