This guy would have the US in world war 3 faster than you could say Christian Reconstructionism. Arab oil belongs to the godly, yano. It's written there right in the bible. I wonder who gets to determine who the godly are? All you folks in BDF who don't believe in tongues are going to be in trouble. Ah shanda la katanda ubaka...

i am no fan of false teachings but...
my impression for some time now has been that 'dominionism' is just a bogeyman that is brought up in every election to throw at the candidates who are most vocal about christian values and the inclusion of christian values in our government...
they used this line of attack against bush in 2004...against palin in 2008...against perry in 2012...and now against cruz...
i'm just not impressed by these charges...

I don't know that I agree with that completely... a son is not responsible for what his father says. If his father said "I'm gonna make sure my son does all this crazy stuff"... then yes, he should repudiate.
But even if he didn't, I wouldn't have a lot of heartburn over it..... unless Ted started saying it himself...

I read part of a book on tithing written by Gary North, who is very close to the founder of Dominionist theology. It was too long, tedious and disturbing to read much of, but I did glean from it the belief that church elders should have the right to examine church members' financial records like the IRS to make sure they are tithing what they owe. This theology essentially turns the church into a theocratic government. I can post the link to the book if anyone is interested.
IMO, it doesn't, just parts of Scripture is taken with a misinterpretation, the same goes for premillennialism. Both teach almost the same thing that Christ will rule the earth where the whole earth will be generally Christianized. Psalm 110 King David made a prophetic statement about Christ reign:
Announcement of the Messiah’s Reign
A Psalm of David.
110 The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
2 The Lord shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion.
Rule in the midst of Your enemies!
