Matthew Taylor Exposes the Fallacies of Christian Dominionism in the War on Iran

Scholar Matthew D. Taylor joins Jim Wallis to unpack the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)—self‑styled apostles/prophets whose “spiritual warfare” and Seven Mountains dominionism sacralize Trump and fuel war enthusiasm.

Taylor reveals how NAR sees Iran as ruled by demonic "territorial spirits" like the biblical "Prince of Persia." NAR also teaches that Christians must seize control of society's seven key areas:

1) Education,

2) Religion,

3) Family,

4) Business,

5) Government/Military,

6) Arts/Entertainment, and

7) Media.

In response, Taylor urges Jesus‑shaped resistance: "The Gospel of Jesus Christ… is not a gospel of empire."
