Pastor Jeff Jansen Says, 'Have Faith,' Trump Is 'Coming Back Into Power Very, Very Quickly'
Mary Ellen Cagnassola
The pro-Trump evangelical pastor and self-described "prophet" Jeff Jansen dug his heels into claims that former President Donald Trump will return to the White House after officials overturn the 2020 presidential election results.
In a video posted to his Facebook page on Saturday, Jansen told his followers that the Biden administration is a hoax, repeating claims that officials and Trump's own attorney general have dismissed as baseless conspiracies.
While he offered no specifics, Jansen, who was removed from the leadership team of the ministry he founded for "unscriptural and unbiblical behavior," told followers that the Trump administration is soon to return.
"We are actually coming into one of the greatest times in human history. There are amazing things happening in this nation and across the globe. This administration that we're under right now is not really an administration. There is a Trump administration that's coming back into power very, very quickly," he said in the video.
Self-proclaimed "prophet" Jeff Jansen said the military would remove Biden and reinstall Trump in the White House by the end of April. That obviously didn't happen, but he continues to insist "there's a Trump administration that's coming back into power very, very quickly."

The comments are a continuation of pronouncements by Jansen regarding the 2020 presidential election. Newsweek previously reported that Jansen told followers that the U.S. military was actually in power and would reinstall Trump as president by the end of April.
Though that event never came to pass, Jansen has not relented. He was removed from his position as co-senior leader of Global Fire Ministries and Global Fire Church in early May due to "a pattern of making poor moral choices, and bad coping mechanisms, character flaws became obvious which disqualified Jeff from New Testament leadership."
In a statement, the Global Fire leadership team, board and advisers cited Jansen's decision to leave his wife and family to "pursue his own desires" as a motivating factor for his ousting.
"His lifestyle in the home, traveling on the road, and in the House of God, has fallen below Biblical standards laid out for those in leadership. He has been confronted concerning these flaws numerous times over a period of time," Global Fire said. "Any pursuit of further ministry on Jeff's behalf is not under the umbrella and blessing of Global Fire Ministries."
Neither Jansen nor Global Fire responded to Newsweek's requests for comment.
Multiple election audits stemming from lawsuits filed by the Trump team have failed to prove claims of widespread election fraud that became popular narrative among Trump supporters and followers of conspiracies like QAnon. The Infrastructure Security Agency at the Department of Homeland Security announced in November that the 2020 election was "the most secure in American history" in response to misinformation about systemic fraud.
