Conservative organizers of the “Million Women” worship rally billed the event — and the November election — as “a last stand moment” to save the nation from satanic forces.

Tens of thousands of evangelical Christians gathered on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., on Saturday to pray for America’s atonement and for Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

Organizers of the event, billed “A Million Women,” described the gathering — and next month’s presidential election — as “a last stand moment” to save the nation from forces of darkness. For hours, the gathered masses sang worship songs, waved flags symbolizing their belief that America was founded as an explicitly Christian nation and prayed aloud for Jesus to intercede on behalf of Trump in November.

“If we don’t stand now,” said Grace Lin, who traveled from Los Angeles for the rally and came wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat, “then the enemy will take over our country. If that happens, that’s the end.”

    Jesus himself could float down on a crucifix to tell these numbskulls they are dead wrong, and they would abandon Jesus instead of abandoning their own bigotry.

      Jesus would be hated by all of them, forgiving people, helping people who are different than you, giving up all wealth to those in need… The biblical descriptions of him are very much socialistic, not greed. For how long did Christianity not allow interest on loans… making it so Jewish people were the ones who had to open the banks.

      Jesus didn’t change his mind, money mattered more to people, so they just changed it and said it was fine.
