Robert Henderson (Christian pastor) Claims God Told Him to be Trump’s “Spiritual” Running Mate (goes to Utah Outcasts, caution for coarse language in the video and comments, 12:28)

He says God came to him in three dreams to be on Trump’s “spiritual cabinet” on Jim Bakker’s show. In the third dream he claims Trump wants him to be his running mate for 2020 (I imagine that will piss off Mike Pence).

Oh God, this guy has started up his own shtick within Charismatic Protestantism. It’s all about “the courts of heaven.” Basically, it’s not enough to just pray to God/Jesus to forgive us, we have to do battle in the courts of heaven. While this isn’t Henderson, this is a fairly succinct description of the *crazy* from another guy, Doug Addison.

The Courts of Heaven operate similar to the legal system we see on Earth.

Because of all the injustices happening in the world, God is releasing new revelation about gaining justice through the Courts of Heaven. The Cross of Christ is our verdict but there are times we need to enforce this by entering into the justice system of God. We operate in the Courts of Heaven through prayer and an intimate relationship with the Lord.

And just like here on Earth, there is more than one type of court in the Courts of Heaven. You might be wondering: which ones are accessible to us?

Anyway, Henderson, Addison and the rest have created their own version of human legal courts, and they’ll sell you ways to work those courts to our favor. (Henderson’s got a raft of books, Addison will sell you how to become your own prophet.) It’s all magical mumbo jumbo. And yes, I know that religion in general can be called magical mumbo jumbo, but the *irony* of this is how these very same people will tell you how the Bible is inerrant but in the next minute they’re talking about an elaborate system of courts of heaven that can’t even be found in the book they claim is without error and complete. *sigh* Might as well get my chakras scanned.
