On “WallBuilders Live” today, Rick Green and David Barton interviewed Mark Gonzales, the founder of the United States Hispanic Prayer Network, about the successful effort by anti-gay activists to overturn a nondiscrimination ordinance in Fayetteville, Arkansas, last year.
Gonzales, who considers himself to be the spiritual son of “respected prophet” Cindy Jacobs, shared his hope that the success they had in Arkansas would inspire anti-gay Christians to mobilize to repeal anti-discrimination ordinances all over the nation and to get more involved in politics “so once again we can take over government.”
“If we begin to vote in our city council, citywide elections, we can begin to turn this thing around,” he said. “We just keep getting additional folks to run for office that are coming from churches that are Christian and sound, principled businessmen and women, people of faith that can run for office. At the end of the day, it is going to take a movement of action, of voting movement, that we step up to the plate and go to the ballot box.”
“If we’re going to be, like we all like to say that we’re the hands and we’re the feet of Jesus, then we’re going to have to be involved,” Gonzales continued. “We’re going to have become that vote and go to the ballot box and make sure we continue that extension of the kingdom in that place so once again we can take over government”:
