- It's said that the seven mountain (7-M) mandate or the seven mountain prophecy is a strategy for evangelizing the modern world and enlarging Christ’s kingdom. Is this something Christians should consider biblical? In this video, we answer that question.

God don't need us, v need Him.
Mystery Babylon who sits on the seven mountains which are the seven heads of the beast. The little horn is already on the scene and he comes as a man of light, like his father comes as an angel of light.
The church has been duped.
Thank you for posting. I've known about the Seven Mountains Mandate for a few years, it sounds good, but when you find out its origins and purposes, it doesn't align with scripture. The fact is that God's church (His people) aren't going to be in the majority in the last days, they will be persecuted by the world powers and other "Christians" and be fewer. Nevertheless, our commission from Christ Jesus is to go into the world preaching the Gospel, we plant the seed but the increase comes from God.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1Jn2:15.
There are only a small small number of us remnants left unfortunately. 😔
Wanting the government and other influential institutions to preach the gospel for us shows how lazy we are.
Dominionism👹
They’re just blatantly ignoring Jesus’ words “my kingdom is not of this world”
How about you believe what you want to believe, I believe what I believe, and we leave the government out of it?
I prefer to not believe what I want. 😎
I had never heard of this before but very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Be careful! no human effort will bring Gods Kingdom but Jesus himself.

Dutch sheets is one of those “apostles” that believe in this. It’s sad how this has taken over mainstream Christianity
Very true. The Bible foretold the world being dominated by a false religion in the final days.
It doesn't cover much in the way of error in the scriptural interpretation but it does at least give a caution and warning. Best to study further.
Doctor Francis Schaeffer was saying the same thing about christian involvement in all areas of life in the 60's and 70's. Of course he did not say it was a 7-M mandate, but to be 'salt of the earth'.
Thankfully the Founders were wise enough to know that no religious based government or society would be capable of providing true religious freedom.
We're not to use the world weapons, but on the contrary, "our weapons are not flesh and blood..."
We're not to use "world weapons" to evangelize, or believe they can save our lives in an eternal sense, but we're absolutely mandated to protect the innocent from evil. Sometimes this requires a suitable application of lead and copper
Actually, the passage you're thinking of (Ephesians 6:12) says "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places."
It doesn't say our weapons are not flesh and blood, though we do see the need to put on the whole armor of God. The point is not that we abstain from or ignore involvement as physical beings in a physical world, since God created us to be flesh and blood, as well as spirit. God made the material world, and we need to take care not to be neo-Gnostic in our thinking about the relationship between physical matter and what is spiritual.
Not by (human) power or by (human) might but by God's Spirit said the Lord.
Seems to have the same focus as islamic clerics.
We are called out of the world, but into the world.
We are the arms that God is using to change and transform the world. And yes, we have a responsibility to!
Seven Mountain Mandate is a false doctrine. A cult. Rooted in misleading interpretation of scriptures.
The Seven Mountains comes from Kenneth Copelands ilk. He preaches a false gospel if God exists. Take that grains that of salt.
Is it biblical?
No
No. This is clear from Scripture. The anti-christ will be firmly entrenched in all the "mountains" (including religion -- one world religion) when Jesus returns. Jesus sets up His kingdom, not us. We are to spread the gospel. We are not of this world.
No, this is dominionism nothing more
Absolutely not.
Mark 12:17 English Standard Version 2016 (ESV) Jesus said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” And they marveled at him.
Most christians are already working within those mountains, so what’s the point? Just be the salt and light (be yourself) and let Christ work through you. No need to waste your money on books and churches who think it’s necessary to preach this week in week out, as if they found some holy grail. Have a heart for the lost instead for yet another system!!

7 mountain mandate is much older than wallnau....yalls research is bad
Finally, you're realizing why things are going South right now. Now we also need pastors like pastor Nelson to realize this and stop telling people we shouldn't delve in or get involved in politics. We all walked down that path and see what we got in return, more and more disaster. Roe vs Wade was repealed because some brave believers never stopped getting involved. It's time for us to learn from them and do the same in our communities and countries.
The insinuation that Christians ought to force all people to live like us is not biblical. We’re called to make disciples of men, not control civic policy. Of course, Christians are allowed to work in politics if they want. They’re allowed to keep up to date on politics as well. But I would say that the laws and legislation we should be advocating for are such that allows the nation’s inhabitants to live in equity. We are given freedom of choice by God, who then are we to take that from others? We can’t and shouldn’t control who people marry and what they do with their bodies. What we should be involved with are the many who are in need in our country and overseas. But there’s rarely any talk about that.
That all being said. I do agree that Christians should permeate all these different spaces, but only as a living sacrifice. The goal isn’t to take charge and make others do as we do. The goal is to influence and lead them to Christ that they may genuinely want to do as we do.
@@Tay-cg1pt Perfectly stated, but that is not what is happening, unfortunately.
@@Tay-cg1pt Spot on. God wants us to freely choose his grace and to love him. Not to be grinded into it. We should spread the Gospel to those willing to hear it and let them choose, just as Christ did.
God gave you no right to determine and demand how people live. That is theological authoritarianism. Christ preached no such agenda. Also there is nothing you or anyone can do to prevent what was prophesized. The Bible speaks of a false religion that will come to dominate the world in the end days. A one world religion world headed by the anti-christ. Sounds like you and the 7M folks are trying to get that one world religion jump started
Don’t be a conformer but a transformer.
For those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be CONFORMED to the image of His Son.
Romans 12:2
What you say is true however...... If you're a Christian you know your kids are growing up in a fallen world will you should strive to make that world better for them so they don't have to do with the same problems Christian kids shouldn't have to grow up in such a demonic world and if enough people were in positions of power we would see real change, we can still be a witness for Christ and change the culture and you don't have to believe in 7 mountain mandates to do it you can get good Christian folks who follow the word of God into high places like the government or in Hollywood it's happening right now Angel studios and pure Flix are having a major impact against the mainstream Hollywood that has been politically correct for years now and is trying to infect the whole world with their nonsense, the sound of freedom and the chosen and a few other movies have greatly impacted the country and even non-believers have gone and watched those movies, older Christian movies from save the 1980s to the ,non-christians in some Christians alike had complained how corny or how badly written or badly acted they were but that's going along the wayside we have really good actors and really good story lines now for alternative to Hollywood movies.
Religion adapts to modern culture. It always will. People know religion had extreme measures for gathering believers and now this theory is too much for people to bear. 100 years it will be rare that we find anybody who believes in angels in the sky.
Very true, and yet “Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 😊🙏🏼
Religion and culture do influence each other, that we agree on. But I think it’s a very statistically dubious claim to assert that religious people will be rare in 100 years. Religiosity is certainly declining in the west but by no means will it be “rare” if current trends hold. Furthermore, the trends are entirely different in the developing world, particularly in Africa.
Feeble research.
The fact that you in no way mentioned to keep the commandments, tells me that you all believe you are a vicar of Christ organization/movement!
“Christians” are not the church. ISRAEL is the church, as it is explained in Acts 7:37-38, and Isaiah 5:7.
Sad how deceived these people are
This is total rubbish and unbiblical
I tend to believe that the seven mountain mandate is just as biblical as the rapture belief. Most rapture people sit around and do nothing to counter evil. Anyway I'm not here to claim I understand how the end of this age looks like, but I do believe we are very close to a new age whatever that looks like. I do know there's a battle between good and evil like never before and I would like to believe that evil is going to be removed from the earth be it through the seven mountain belief or the rapture. But I personally lean towards the seven mountain teaching
You believe man is going to eliminate evil?
We see clearly from the Bible that Jesus HIMSELF is the One who destroys all the evil (at His return). Also, at that time all of these so-called "mountains" will be under the control of the anti-christ, including religion. The disciples of Jesus also wanted to take over the government, and Jesus told them that is not the plan. The "7 Mountains" was simply an idea for a book and it was very successful; just not Biblical. Please pray and consider.
@@seek_god2920 too many think they follow Christ but they want to control the Potters Wheel
Careful, the New Age is the occult, and it's infiltrating churches.
The idea is biblical, but not in a positive sense. Rev 17:9 This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated. The woman is the great prostitute in the Book of Revelation. At the end time, the church will compromise with the World, even she think she is in control but in reality, she is serving the breast (Antichrist).
