Mastriano, Doug

“Reporters unearthed previous comments from Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano, who angrily claimed that the Bible forbids Christians from criticizing elected officials like himself.

Mastriano is wrong. It is precisely because of our Christian faith that we criticize him for twisting the Gospel, attacking equal rights, and supporting the January 6 insurrection.

But it’s not just fascist to claim that voters aren’t allowed to question our elected officials: It’s also a heresy. Perhaps Greene, Mastriano, and Mohler have forgotten that we’re following the example of Jesus and the Hebrew prophets when we hold unjust rulers and corrupt religious leaders accountable.” 1
