Seven Mountains Dominionism At North Carolina's 'Response' RallySUBMITTED BY Peter Montgomery on Thursday, 10/1/2015 12:35 pm
Last Saturdays five-and-a-half-hour Response rally in North Carolina was, like previous Response rallies, a culture war rallying cry disguised as a nonpolitical prayer gathering. The event, organized by Christian-nation activist David Lane and emceed by apostle Doug Stringer, promoted Seven Mountains dominionism, the idea that the right kind of Christians are meant to control every sphere or mountain of cultural influence: business, government, media, arts and entertainment, education, family, and religion.
While laying hands on North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory, who Lane said was put in place by God, Lane prayed that God could give McCrory courage to fight.

many believe he too has been 'consecrated' by Seven Mountains Dominionism (although, to be fair, it was Ted's crazy daddy who consecrated him so maybe they don't put too much stock in it).

has supposedly been anointed by God to take over America and lead it into a sharia fascist hell whereby if you disagree with TPTB you are directly rebelling against God, not man.
This system of government has been tried before and the results were always horrific to the extreme.
