(ChurchLeaders) One of America’s most prominent Hispanic evangelical leaders is telling congregants to believe in “divine immunity” rather than take a COVID-19 vaccine, which he alleges can “alter your DNA.” Pastor Guillermo Maldonado, founder of Miami-based King Jesus International Ministry (KJIM), also warns that a “satanic global agenda” is attempting to bring Christians under governmental control.
Maldonado, who has gained prominence through his Pentecostal televangelism ministry and books, is a key ally and supporter of Donald Trump. In January, the president launched an “Evangelicals for Trump” coalition at KJIM’s headquarters.
