“We can’t be those conservative Christians that flee to easy places, but we have a mandate to shift things to change things,” explained Feucht.
Charlie Kirk Said the Spirit of ‘Jezebel Is on the Ballot’
Charlie Kirk founded Turning Point USA, a national student movement dedicated to “identifying, organizing, and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government.”
“We need to make sure that Kari Lake becomes United States senator, okay?” challenged Kirk. “That’s number one.” He went on to share specifics about a proposition focused on abortion and encouraged those in attendance to defeat the proposition.
Kirk spoke out against another church in the area, Christ’s Church of the Valley (CCV), that he claimed had not spoken out against the abortion proposition. Driscoll interrupted Kirk and attempted to smooth over speaking out against another local church.
“If you love God, you must hate evil,” Kirk quoted Psalm 97:10. “We must care about the type of government that we have. Is it a government that will exalt righteousness or a government that will elevate the worst possible things?”
He then claimed that the Spirit of Jezebel was on the ballot. Kirk said he learned of the term from Driscoll’s teaching and warned those in attendance “Jezebel is on the ballot this cycle.”
Driscoll is known for speaking out against the “Spirit of Jezebel,” describing the biblical figure as “a demon that has worked through men and women for centuries” that attempts to “control and dominate, most often through seductive women but oftentimes through overbearing, domineering men.”
But others, including author Jennifer Greenberg, have argued against Driscoll, saying, “There’s no ‘Spirit of Jezebel.'” She explained the only references to Jezebel in Scripture were Queen Jezebel in the Old Testament and a false teacher in Revelation.
“This is not a difficult election to figure out,” said Kirk. “Are we as Christians supposed to be salt and light and change the environment we come in contact with, or are we called to just kind of cower and run away and hope that things get better?”
