If you’ve never heard the term “sacred purge” or “dominionism”, you may not fully realise how concerning the doctrines found within the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) can be.
There is a growing number within apostate Christendom who believe in some form of a 'militarised' uprising to take domination over the earth and “establish Christ’s Kingdom” before His return.
I invited Stephen Montgomery, author of "NAR: The Converging Apostasy” onto RISE RADIO to delve into his extensive research of this cult movement and where it came from.
Stephen became concerned back when he was part of a group who taught hyper-charismatic teachings. So much so that he phoned up several leaders and asked direct questions related to the idea of a "sacred purge" to see how they would respond.
On the show Stephen explains the three core tenets of the converging apostasy: Perfection, Dominion and the Sacred Purge and how this is playing out in the movement.

What sorts of actions would people take if they thought they were morally superior or that they would soon be made "perfect"? How would they act if they gained political or military power? What if they thought it was their job to "cleanse" America of dissenters and critics? Is it possible to learn from the past and the present? In this short primer for my longer and much more detailed The Converging Apostasy and The Converging Apostasy: A Collection of Thematic Critiques, these questions will be addressed. This will be done through four critical areas of concern; Perfection, Dominion, Rulership, and Purge. I provide examples of these four topics as they can be seen in (1) the Esoterically-influenced "Christian" World under the influence of Jane Lead's eschatology (2) the "Esoteric World" under the influence of Alice Bailey's eschatology (3) the Esoterically-influenced Alt-right and (4) mystically-inclined Russian authors.
