Donald Trump's commanders have been accused of telling troops that the war with Iran is part of God's plan for Armageddon.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), a non-profit civil rights watchdog, said it has received 110 complaints from troops since the war broke out on Saturday.
This is NOT Biblical.
The complaints span more than 40 different units across 30 military sites, first reported on veteran journalist Jonathan Larsen's Substack.
A non-commissioned officer (NCO) wrote to the MRFF Monday that his combat-unit commander had claimed Trump was 'anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth.'
'He urged us to tell our troops that this was “all part of God’s divine plan” and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ,' the NCO said.
The NCO, anonymized by MRFF, said they were writing on behalf of 15 others, including 11 Christians, a Muslim and a Jew. The troops are currently outside the Iran theater but on 'ready-support' status, meaning they could be deployed at any time.
The NCO said that their commander's comments 'destroy morale and unit cohesion and are in violation of the oaths we swore to support the Constitution.'
A White House official denied that commanders were giving orders based on end times scripture, adding that the war had three aims: destroy Iran's missiles, munitions industry and navy.
The Pentagon did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The religious tenor at the top of the military is not confined to the battlefield.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a born-again Christian, holds monthly prayer meetings at the Pentagon and attends a weekly Bible study at the White House led by a preacher who argues that God blesses those who support Israel.
Trump's longtime spiritual adviser, Paula White, has made similar claims for decades, urging Christians to 'stand with Israel'.
Pastor John Hagee, who visited the White House multiple times during Trump's first term, told his congregation on Sunday that the war with Iran signaled we are nearing the end times.
'Prophetically, we're right on cue,' Hagee said. 'Sirens are wailing and prophecies written thousands of years ago are stepping onto the world stage.'
US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee claimed that Trump would receive a message from God shortly before the strikes on Iran in June.
'I believe you will hear from heaven and that voice is far more important than mine or anyone else's,' he wrote to Trump. 'You did not seek this moment. This moment sought you.'
