No Kings...Including Jesus?

The “No Kings” protests were marketed as a grassroots uprising against authoritarianism and billionaire control — but the evidence tells a very different story.

The movement was bankrolled by left-wing billionaires, including heiress Christy Walton, and coordinated by more than 200 progressive organizations across 2,000 cities. That’s not a spontaneous citizen movement; it’s an elite-driven campaign dressed up as popular resistance.

Even more revealing, the protesters can’t seem to say what they’re for. Their website offers no clear platform, no constructive vision — only vague slogans about “defending democracy” and stopping Trump. It’s all opposition, no direction.

Ironically, demonstrators chant against billionaire power while being financed by billionaires themselves. What’s presented as a movement “for the people” looks more like a color-revolution-style operation — a top-down effort to destabilize a democratically elected government under the banner of “saving” it.

To lend moral weight, the movement has enlisted faith-based groups to frame their protest as an act of spiritual righteousness. The Interfaith Alliance, for example, called for “faith mobilization rejecting authoritarianism,” even encouraging churches to host prayer gatherings before marching to local No Kings events. The official website calls this campaign part of a “Sacred Tradition of Protest,” merging political activism with religious language.

But Scripture warns against those who use the appearance of faith while rejecting its true authority: “They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny Him” (Titus 1:16).

At its heart, the No Kings movement isn’t merely a rebellion against a president — it’s a rebellion against God. It’s the same ancient defiance John Milton captured in Paradise Lost, where Satan declared, “The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.” Milton didn’t celebrate that statement — he exposed its trap. It’s the seductive logic of “my truth” — the belief that freedom means self-definition, that moral authority can be found within rather than received from above. It sounds liberating, but it’s the oldest deception in human history.

True freedom, Milton shows, comes through obedience to God. False freedom — the kind the No Kings spirit embodies — is autonomy cut loose from divine order, a will enthroned in its own authority. It promises liberation but breeds chaos. It turns what could be Heaven into Hell.

That’s the real danger: when a nation rejects the King of Kings in the name of freedom, it’s not overthrowing tyranny — it’s enthroning pride.
