DAVID BARTON - FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT, WALLBUILDERS
There were over 300 “faith leaders” who supported Franklin Graham’s Special Day of Prayer for Pres. Trump. (https://www.facebook.com/notes/connie-schuetz-wright/special-day-of-prayer-june-2-2019/620410158462960/)
I am going to share a series of Facebook posts concerning the ecumenical outlook of some of these “faith leaders.” Many of these are part of the WOF and NAR and preach the false doctrines inherent in these systems so we already know we should not follow their ministries. The examples I will share in these posts, demonstrating their ecumenism, provide even more reasons to mark and avoid them. So many are leading their followers straight to Rome and, sadly, many of their adherents are oblivious to the dangers involved. The groundwork continues to be laid for the one world religion and the one world government, but the Lord says, “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues” (Rev. 18:4).

Now for the ecumenical examples -
In this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWf_jx49PzM pub. 9-20-10), featuring David Barton and Randy Robison, they are discussing Barton’s friendship with Glenn Beck. Randy Robison is the son of James and Betty Robison of Life Today.
At the 3:28 point, we hear David Barton say the following concerning Glenn Beck: ““Here is a guy who was raised as a Catholic. He found Jesus in Alcoholics Anonymous when he really screwed up his life, and he’s now going to a Mormon church, but that doesn’t say anything about his personal relationship with Jesus, and that’s what people need to look at.”
Randy Robison: “So you believe that he is a Christian in every sense of the word?”
Barton: “I do.”

On August 28, 2010 Barton attended Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally held at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. It was organized to "restore honor in America" and to raise funds for the non-profit Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Billed as a "celebration of America's heroes and heritage," several veterans were honored. Beck's speech urged Americans of all religions to turn to their faith in God, "turning our face back to the values and principles that made us great." Beck called for Americans to unite despite political or religious disagreements, with 240 clergy from different races and religions – belonging to the ecumenical ministerial group, the Black Robe Regiment – joining the events' speakers on stage before its closing statements. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restoring_Honor_rally)
The evening before the “Restoring Honor” rally Beck held his “Divine Destiny” event at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. He told the audience: “Pastors, priests, rabbis: tonight and tomorrow is a wakeup call. A call to action to serve your country. A call to let you know you are not alone and that we are here to help you.”
David Barton joined Beck throughout the night as a co-host to “Divine Destiny.” He helped Beck introduce each of the night’s speakers. (https://dailycaller.com/…/glenn-becks-divine-destiny-event…/) This link contains a clip of him speaking at the event:

David Barton is good friends with Sam Brownback who is the Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom and a Catholic. In 2013, when Brownback was governor of Kansas, Barton was the headline speaker at the 52nd annual Kansas Prayer Breakfast. (https://www.cjonline.com/…/speaker-focuses-nations-spiritua…)

David Barton prays an anointing over Glenn Beck. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOM6JeXKkFw) Pub. on Jan. 26, 2016:
“We bless him with your peace. We bless him with your stability; with your strength; with your clarity; with your focus, Father. Let the mind of Christ be in him, Father. Give that mind clarity, Father, in Jesus’ Name. That as he speaks, Lord, let the words come off his mouth that You want said to these folks. And, even if he doesn’t say what needs to be said let the Holy Spirit drive it home in the way it needs to be heard. So Father regardless of what he says let Your Spirit take it, deliver it in the right way. That you’ve given Glenn the mind on this: you’ve given him the speech and the words on this. Father, we pray an anointing to be effective. We bless him with peace. We bless him with anointing. We bless him, Father, with insight and vision, and, Father, with confidence as well. Let it be your words that go forward to these folks. And, then we turn the Holy Spirit loose with fruit that brings forth 30-fold, 60-fold, 100-fold back to this campaign, Father. In Jesus’ Name, amen.” (Note: Glenn Beck is not a Christian so he cannot have the mind of Christ meaning this prayer is useless).

In January of this year David Barton spoke at a citywide prayer celebration in Las Vegas, NV, hosted by the Mayor’s Faith Initiative program. The event is intended to promote community-wide unity through peace. All are welcome…This celebration joins leaders from the “City Wide Unity Prayer” group and the Mayor’s Faith Initiative as prayer, services and resources are presented. In the spring of 2012, more than 120 faith leaders representing 70,000-plus congregants from Las Vegas valley houses of worship responded to the mayor’s invitation to help change the city through faith in action.

Recently David Barton appeared on the Ben Shapiro show: (https://www.youtube.com/watch…)
Ben Shapiro is an American conservative political commentator, writer, and lawyer. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Shapiro)
He is also an orthodox Jew. (http://www.zmanmagazine.com/PDF/Shapiro.pdf)
He was the headline speaker for the 2019 March for Life event and here is one of his comments (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkrJawCk7J0):
“Righteousness doesn’t have to be popular; it just has to be righteous.” (Note: We are not made righteous by fighting abortion. Our righteousness is in Christ alone. However, being an Orthodox Jew, Shapiro doesn’t adhere to this truth).
Here are some Jewish beliefs concerning righteousness according to the Jewish Virtual Library site: “Righteousness is not an abstract notion but rather consists in doing what is just and right in all relationships…Righteousness requires not merely abstention from evil, but a constant pursuit of justice and the performance of positive deeds…Because righteousness is not an inherent human characteristic, but rather a learned trait resulting from sustained performance of obligations, man can never attain the peak of righteous perfection…the impossibility of achieving absolute righteousness, however, does not preclude the constant striving toward this end.” (https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/righteousness) (Note: So, in Jewish thinking, fighting abortion would be an act contributing to one’s own righteousness).
