I am 100% a supporter of President Trump’s MAGA Mandate. Saying that I need to also admit I’m not a blinded drone-follower of President Trump. I have some disagreements. My disagreements does not place me in a condemn all things Trump because of a minority of disagreements. (in case you are curious: I believe all things all things mRNA is dangerous gene therapy – Trump is supportive of mRNA.)
Frankly, I hope this Trump Administration sticks it to the Dem-Marxist criminals (politicians, Deep State Bureaucrats, Globalist Elitists, Etc.) and the RINO criminals. As much as I hope Trump sticks it to the criminal tyrants, I sense a post-Trump authoritarianism could emerge in the USA (or globally for that matter) either as a response to President Trump correction or to maintain the correction beyond terms that are needful. That all depends on how the future political winds blow.
With future political winds in mind, you should read a couple of Christian themed posts that essentially warns how authoritarianism might have current seeds that could take root into cautionary acceptability.

The Next Generation Is Ready to Accept the Antichrist — Here’s Why

The Bible foretells a time when a powerful and charismatic global leader will rise to dominance, demanding absolute loyalty (mark of the beast) and ruling with unchecked authority. Known as the Antichrist, this figure will captivate the world with promises of peace and progress–only to lead many into deception and destruction (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4). While such a scenario may have once seemed distant, recent polling suggests that Generation Z is already primed to accept a leader who bypasses democracy and rules by decree.
Faced with disillusionment and distrust in government, the media, and even the church, they are searching for someone strong enough to take control–regardless of the cost to personal freedoms. The seeds of authoritarianism are being sown, and the stage is being set for a leader who will exploit this longing for radical change.
Gen Z’s Shift Toward Authoritarianism
A recent study by the United Kingdom’s Channel 4 news reveals that over half of Gen Z (ages 13-27) believe the UK would be better off with a leader who does not have to bother with parliament or elections. Even more disturbingly, a third say the country would be better off under military rule. Nearly half of this generation believes that society must be radically reshaped, even through revolution. These findings suggest that democracy itself is losing its grip on the next generation.
Why is this happening? The answer is simple: Gen Z does not know who to trust. They see government as incompetent, the media as manipulative, and the church as compromised. They have been raised in a world of political chaos, economic instability, and moral relativism, where truth is no longer absolute but self-defined. Their trust in traditional democratic systems has been shattered, leaving them vulnerable to the idea that only a strong, decisive leader–one unrestrained by laws, opposition, or due process–can bring order.
Beyond distrust, there is also a deep craving for efficiency. Having grown up in a world of instant gratification–where everything from food to information is available at the push of a button–many in Gen Z are frustrated by the slow, cumbersome nature of democracy. They see parliamentary debates, elections, and checks and balances as obstacles rather than safeguards.
In their eyes, the ability to “get things done” is more important than the process by which those things happen. This mindset creates an openness to leaders who promise results without the delays of democratic procedure. It is not hard to see how such thinking could be exploited by a future leader who promises order, prosperity, and justice–if only the people will grant him total control.
The Perfect Conditions for the Antichrist
Biblical prophecy warns that the Antichrist will emerge in a time of crisis, offering solutions that the world is desperate to accept. He will appear as a savior, bringing stability where there is chaos, unity where there is division, and prosperity where there is lack (Revelation 13:16-17). But his rule will ultimately lead to tyranny, persecution, and the suppression of truth.
Gen Z’s current attitudes make them particularly susceptible to such a leader. Their frustration with democracy, eagerness for radical change, and willingness to surrender freedoms for the sake of efficiency mirror the conditions that have led to dictatorships throughout history. From Hitler’s Germany to Mao’s China, authoritarian regimes have always risen in times of widespread uncertainty, when people longed for a figure who could “fix everything.”
Another key factor paving the way for the Antichrist is Gen Z’s growing embrace of digital control. This is the first generation to grow up entirely in the digital age, where surveillance, data tracking, and algorithmic manipulation are normal aspects of life. Many young people willingly sacrifice privacy for convenience, allowing tech companies and governments to monitor their movements, purchases, and beliefs.
They see no issue with centralized digital currencies, social credit systems, or artificial intelligence shaping their reality. This normalization of total surveillance means that when a future leader demands global compliance through digital tracking–something the Bible describes as the “mark of the beast” (Revelation 13:16-17)–it will seem not only acceptable but logical. The infrastructure is already being built, and Gen Z, more than any prior generation, is primed to accept it without question.
What Must Be Done
The shift toward authoritarianism among young people is a warning sign. As Christians, we must recognize this growing vulnerability and counter it with truth. The solution is not to dismiss Gen Z’s frustrations but to offer them a firm foundation–one rooted in biblical truth, historical wisdom, and unwavering moral clarity. We must remind them that true leadership is not found in unchecked power, but in righteousness, humility, and adherence to God’s law.
Most importantly, we must prepare them spiritually. The Bible warns of great deception in the last days (Matthew 24:24), and those who are not grounded in truth will be easily swayed by false promises of peace and security. Now is the time to engage, disciple, and equip this generation to recognize the signs of the times–and to stand firm in their faith when the world demands their allegiance to a leader who opposes everything Christ stands for.
The rise of authoritarian sentiments among young people is not just a political concern; it is a spiritual battle. If we do not act now, we may soon find ourselves in a world where the next generation willingly ushers in the very figure the Bible has long warned us about.

Wokeness and the Devil’s Baptism
Wokeness' upside-down belief system...

American Faith & Freedom (Substack)
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. (Romans 1:28)
If you're not familiar with the term reprobate mind, one of the best ways I’ve heard it explained is someone who has such a mind has been confronted with the truth of who God is and they still reject Him to follow their own thoughts and desires. In other words, they have traded the truth of God for a lie and choose to live as if He does not exist. In their foolishness, they will not repent but will double down on their rebellion against the things of God and encourage others to do the same.
In their mind, there is seemingly no wrong that they can do in pursuit of what they view as right. That’s why wokeness and its agenda of open borders, abortion, homosexuality, transgenderism, climate change (Earth worship), ANTIFA riots, the mainstream media, and the cancel culture are still active in our country today… despite Donald Trump’s efforts to stamp out its horrific manifestations in our society.
Wokeness is a belief system, much like a religion. We can even compare one’s adoption of a woke mindset to public baptism…
People Baptized into Christianity:
§ Become “Born Again”
§ Revere God and His Word above all else
§ Readily see their own sin
§ Come to understand how their sins have offended CHRIST
§ Forgive because they love others
People Baptized into Wokeness:
§ Become “Woke”
§ Revere Social Justice above God and His Word
§ Readily see the sins of other people, but not their own
§ Recognize how the sins of others have hurt or offended THEM
§ Don’t forgive, because they do not love others
Consider this…
Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and behold, the log is in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye. (Matthew 7:3-5 NASB)
I’ll take this analysis one step further and add that the woke concept of Social Justice rests on the altar of D.I.E.B. (diversity, inclusion, equity, and belonging). These things motivate a woke person, not a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Truly woke individuals seek only pleasure and strive to avoid any pain or personal discipline. Knowingly, or unknowingly they are walking with the devil as if they’d been baptized by Satan himself. They subscribe to Anton LeVay’s “Do what thou wilt” mantra.
The word of the Lord came to me 2“Son of man, you are living among a rebellious people. They have eyes to see but do not see and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a rebellious people. (Ezekiel 12:1-2)
Like a religion, wokeness has its own belief system... where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where letting murderers out of prison and killing innocent babies and letting women get raped are all okay. Included in this are their “doctrines” of white privilege, Marxism, gender fluidity, intersectionality, systemic racism, and the demonization of anyone who disagrees with them. Advancing the transfer of wealth, equal outcomes, and power to the oppressed are their “good works”. In their minds, these lead to their own ultimate “glorification” by way of obtaining the approval of their fellow man. In his Gospel, John writes this…
42 Nevertheless many even of the rulers believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they were not confessing Him, for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue; 43 for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God. (John 12:42-43 NASB)
Where is all this heading? Unchecked, the wokeness epidemic has the potential to infect unsuspecting Christians (and innocent children) who are not strong in their faith and draw them into the darkness of the woke movement.
The election of Donald Trump will not change how woke leftists think or act. D.E.I.B. may be on the way out for now, but “woke’ is not dead. Rather they will press even harder. Many of them will ignore Trump’s executive orders and persist. Take the case of the George Soros-owned radio station that just doxed undercover ICE agents operating in San Jose, California. And then there are the spiritually sick wokesters who blamed Trump for this past week’s airplane and helicopter tragedy… facts don’t matter to them.
Why? Because their anti-American values are informed by Satan, not Christ…
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. (1 Peter 5:8)
The battle is still very much on… With that in mind, we must pray for those who remain steadfast to their woke “faith” so they will not be eternally devoured by their doctrines of demons.
