Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Evangelicals, who supposedly follow Jesus, support Trump. They seem to have decided that the teachings of Jesus can be ignored when they get in the way of their quest to dominate American society.

#2 Evangelical Christians believe in the Four Tenets of evangelical faith: the Bible is the ultimate authority for life, Jesus died to atone for the sins of the world, a conversion experience is required for heavenly salvation, and evangelistic outreach is necessary.

#3 Modern right-wing evangelicalism, as a political movement, is based on evangelical beliefs, but it is also anchored in Christian nationalism, which asserts that America was founded as a Christian nation and should be governed according to the precepts of Christian nationalists.

#4 While white and black evangelicals share similar basic beliefs, relatively few black evangelicals are found in Christian nationalist ranks. This is because most black people do not believe that oppression exists, and Christian nationalism contains a distinct underpinning of white supremacy that most black people want no part of.
