A resurfaced sermon in which televangelist Kenneth Copeland claims Jesus showed him what awaits those who failed to vote for Donald Trump has drawn renewed criticism online, including from a Christian account that called it ‘blasphemy’.

In the clip, Copeland says that on Judgement Day, non-voters and those who did not ‘pray and vote’ as instructed will be made to listen to the names of every aborted baby.

The remarks date from a church service held days after Trump’s 2024 election win but resurfaced on social media in October 2026, less than two weeks before the midterms. One Christian account branded him a ‘false prophet and end times deceiver’.

‘I Saw This in the Spirit. Literally’
Copeland made the claims at a Sunday service at his Eagle Mountain International Church in Texas following Trump’s November 2024 victory, Right Wing Watch reported at the time. The full service was later removed from the church’s YouTube channel, although clips of it have continued to circulate online.

‘I saw this in the spirit. Literally,’ Copeland told the congregation. ‘[It was] Judgement Day, and Jesus stood there and he said, “Those of you that didn’t vote, I put you in that nation and you didn’t vote… or you didn’t pray and vote like I told you to, you will listen to the names of all the babies that are here and never got any life.”‘

‘And it’ll take a while because there’s over 65 million of them,’ Copeland continued. ‘But you are gonna listen to every one of them and you are gonna be held responsible for their death.’

Copeland did not give a source or timeframe for the figure of 65 million, which is his assertion rather than a verified count. The quoted passage does not name Trump. Its link to the election comes from the context of the service, which Right Wing Watch said was dedicated almost entirely to celebrating his victory.

The service was dated 10 November 2024, the Sunday after the election, according to Protestia, a Christian news site that called it a ‘newly revived clip’.

During the same service, Copeland declared that Trump’s win would unleash a ‘spiritual awakening’ in America because ‘the atmosphere has been cleansed’. ‘No more rainbow flags,’ he said. ‘And the spirit of Margaret Sanger is gone.’ Sanger founded the American Birth Control League in 1921, which later became the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
