Priest issues ‘red flag’ warning about Mike Johnson remarks

A priest issued a “red flag” warning on Wednesday about House Speaker Mike Johnson‘s remarks at an event hosted by the National Association of Christian Lawmakers (NACL) late last year.

In early December 2023, Johnson gave a keynote speech at the NACL’s annual meeting and awards gala. The NACL has been labeled as a far-right Christian nationalist group. During his speech, Johnson compared his journey to the speakership to that of Moses parting the Red Sea, a famous biblical story.

A good spiritual director will tell you that insights you feel are coming from God, which are usually subtle, must be carefully tested and weighed,” Martin wrote on X, formerly Twitter, on Wednesday. “One red flag for spiritual directors is, ‘Then God said this.’ Not everything that pops into your head during prayer is from God.”
