It's historic reverse-engineering. It's NOT an article I wrote, so I don't take credit or blame for it. Content: the missing link why something 'so alive' ended up being 'so dead'. Many understand the "flaws of Rome", but few do research on the flaws of the 'fathers of the reformation'. And what sneaked in with them in the very beginning:

The Dominionists adhere tenaciously to the tenets of Calvinism or Reformed theology, which maintains that all of the end-time Bible prophecies were fulfilled by 70 A.D., with the destruction of Jerusalem. Therefore, it only remains for the Christian Church to set up the Kingdom of God on earth before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The spiritual father of the Dominionists is Protestant Reformer John Calvin, who aspired to set up the "Kingdom of God" in Geneva, Switzerland during the Protestant Reformation. In his Fundamental Baptist newsletter, David Cloud has conveyed what the Kingdom of God looked like in Geneva:

"Calvin was vicious toward his enemies, acting more like a devouring wolf than a harmless sheep. Historian William Jones observed that ‘that most hateful feature of popery adhered to Calvin through life, the spirit of persecution.’ Note how he described his theological opponents: ‘...all that filth and villainy...mad dogs who vomit their filth against the majesty of God and want to pervert all religion. Must they be spared?’ (Oct. 16, 1555). He hated the Anabaptists and called them ‘henchmen of Satan.’ Four men who disagreed with him on who should be admitted to the Lord’s Supper were beheaded, quartered, and their body parts hung in strategic locations in Geneva as a warning to others. He burned Michael Servetus [at the stake] (for rejecting infant baptism and for denying Christ’s deity). Calvin wrote about Servetus, ‘One should not be content with simply killing such people, but should burn them cruelly.’" (FBIS, "The Calvinism Debate") http://www.wayoflife.org/fbns/calvinismdebate.html

How does a "Reformed" minister justify burning heretics at the stake, with the same ferocity the Catholic Popes exterminated entire heretical sects? There is evidence that the Rosicrucian societies, who were the resurfaced Templars in Great Britain, infiltrated the Reformation where they operated as agents provocateurs. By founding new "Reformed" denominations, these agents acted in most un-Christian ways in order to give Protestant Christianity a reputation for violence, just as their agents had formerly done so effectively in the Catholic Church. (See: The Reformation: Rosicrucian Connections) http://watch.pair.com/reformation.html

One agent provocateur of the Rosicrucian societies was, in fact, John Calvin, who was a crypto-Jew and whose legacy of legalism and bloodshed brought reproach against Christianity which continues to the present day. This staggering piece of evidence - that Calvin was Jewish - was obtained from the proceedings of the B’nai B’rith Convention in Paris in 1936.

"Once the revolution had been decided upon, the Jewish plotters introduced Calvinism into England to split Church and State, and divide the people. Contrary to general belief, Calvinism is of Jewish origin. It was deliberately conceived to split the adherents of the Christian religions and divide the people. Calvin's real name was Cohen! When he went from Geneva to France to start preaching his doctrine he became known as Cauin. Then in England it became Calvin. History proves that there is hardly a revolutionary plot that wasn't hatched in Switzerland; there is hardly a Jewish revolutionary leader who hasn’t changed his name. "At B'nai B'rith celebrations held in Paris, France, in 1936 Cohen, Cauvin, or Calvin, whatever his name may have been, was enthusiastically acclaimed to have been of Jewish descent (The Catholic Gazette, February, 1936)

"We are the Fathers of all Revolutions, even of those which sometimes happen to turn against us. We are the supreme Masters of Peace and War. We can boast of being the Creators of the Reformation! Calvin was one of our children; he was of Jewish descent, and was entrusted by Jewish authority and encouraged with Jewish finance to draft his scheme in the reformation (which was to convince Christians it was alright to charge usury and other damnable heresies which are in violation of God’s Laws)." (Eustace Mullins, The Secret) http://christianparty.net/wm/chron-4.htm

The modus operandi of International Jewry (not the Jews, but the 'synagoge of Satan' that claim to be orthodox Jews) is the dialectical process - sowing discord, polarizing the masses and playing both extremes off against one other. The animosities they generate render the masses incapable of recognizing the true conspirators and, even if they did, the rivalries would be so ingrained they would be unwilling to unite against the conspirators. This modus operandi is clearly stated in the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion: "Throughout all Europe, and by means of relations with Europe, in other continents also, we must create ferments, discords, and hostility. Therein we gain a double advantage. In the first place we keep in check all countries, for they well know that we have the power whenever we like to create disorders or to restore order." (Protocol 7) http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/przion7.htm
 
I forgot to explain what the current day implications are in "Dominionism"

Dominionism and its Human Empire" by Prof. Johan Malan, University of Limpopo (February 2006). Millions of Christians all over the world are confronted with the growing tide of dominionism. This is a form of Christian humanism in which believers see themselves as commissioned and empowered by God to manifest His kingdom on earth to the good of all. Dominionism is based upon kingdom theology since it claims to physically reveal the kingdom of God with all its benefits to humanity. Its institution is described as reconstructionism or a transformation movement because of the far-reaching changes that society must undergo to ensure a better life for all. This situation is described by some as “heaven on earth” and presupposes the incapacitating of Satan’s opposing kingdom of darkness.

This article exposes the heresy of Dominionism and its far reaching implications in Christendom.

Geo, we already covered this topic with the poster named Beza, he ended up changing his name. Dominionism is wrong and it was the Baptists that stood to lose the most against those in power who were driving Dominion theology, theocratic nations, etc. It was common due to the time period and ALL [yes, a crazy sect of Baptists even used it] seem to stress the union of Church and State, but as you know, mainline Baptists have always stressed the separation of Church and State. It wasn't until Theodore Beza that Dominionism came to it's heights theologically.

That being said, pick up a copy of "The Reformers and their step children." You'll find baptists being murdered [even baptists who believed in the doctrines of Grace/aka 5 points] by Dominionists.

Peace,

PS: It's not "just" the Reformed Church that adheres to Dominionism, this is a gross gerneralization. Anyone that wants to marry church and state is quilty of this false theology.
 
(1) Our mandate is to take over the world, the governments,
the businesses for Christ, thereby ushering in the return of Christ
(2) Whole cities and nations can be saved and transformed

WHO IS TEACHING IT:

Dominionism: NAR, Transformations movement, C. Peter Wagner,
Ed Silvoso, George Otis, Jr., YWAM, Bill Hamon, Paul Cain, Francis
Frangipane, and the majority of Christians and Christian teachers.

I like to add that "the majority of Christians and Christian teachers"
is problematic in cases where "fundamental Christians" support any
government that invades other countries for the supposed good of the
general population there. That's practical Dominionism today, and a
majority support(ed) it. One indication that the "broad way" is never
the 'narrow path', it's just fuel that speeds up the time of the end.
