NAR - New Apostolic Reformation movement vs end time prophecy predictions

Some folks look to Donald Trump or other political entities to be the primary focus for end-time scenarios

But the SDA church has long predicted that instead of political figures being key to the end-time prediction of Rev 13 it is in fact a strong religious element that is focused on some form of worship.

So then enter something like 'NAR' -- New Apostolic Reformation with its blend of politics and religion and focus on later rain etc.

Wagner's movement quickly took on an increasingly apostolic–prophetic tone and his organizational acumen helped it expand through networks of apostles and prophets and their organizations, while their ideas, such as dominionism, also spread back into the movement. After his retirement in 2010 and death in 2016, these organizations have been led by apostles and prophets.[7]

Wagner's 2008 book Dominion! How Kingdom Action Can Change the World, with its language of spiritual violence, set the NAR on a trajectory away from simple reformation of the church's organizational structure towards gaining political influence through spiritual warfare in order to transform society. His 2016 endorsement of Donald Trump's candidacy for US president shortly before Wagner's death has been called "one of the most consequential" evangelical endorsements of Trump that year.[7]

As the fastest growing group "within or on the periphery of American Christianity" since the 1980s, the New Apostolic Reformation has rapidly gained religious and political influence in the United States.[18] In 2015, it was estimated that churches openly part of the NAR were attended by 3 million Americans;[29][30] some estimates as of 2020 claim an "[influence on] approximately thirty-three million adherents in the United States", though this number is disputed.[18]

The movement is global, growing in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, with it constituting a significant part of church growth in the southern hemisphere.[31][29][27] American missionaries introduced New Apostolic thought and spiritual warfare practices to Haitian pastors and seminarians during the first presidency of Jean-Bertrand Aristide and again following the 2010 Haiti earthquake through transnational missionary networks.[32] Additionally, tenets typical of the NAR have spread into the broader Pentecostal and Charismatic worlds.[31] NAR beliefs have a global reach through Trinity Broadcasting Network, an international Christian television network, which "regularly promotes the teachings of the NAR" in its programming.[33] The Elijah List, a prophecy-focused website founded in 1997, is influential in the NAR.[34]
