Phil Vischer—the man who once gave the world talking vegetables and Sunday School singalongs—has now dedicated his platform to something far darker. He is now driving a wedge between Jesus Christ and God the Father.

For those who haven’t been following Vischer’s downward spiral, here’s the recap. The former VeggieTales creator has long since traded in biblical orthodoxy for a full embrace of leftist ideology. He’s claimed that Latino Republicans are “white people in disguise.”

He promotes transgenderism in the church. He demonizes white parents who dare to put their kids in good schools. He mocks natural law, biblical gender roles, and the entire concept of moral design. He is, at this point, less a confused Christian and more a spiritual Trojan horse—rolling through the gates of the church under the banner of compassion while smuggling in the doctrines of the world.

And now, in a recent Holy Post podcast episode, he goes full-blown Marcionite:

“There are two very different ways I see people applying Christianity. There are people who read the Bible and are inspired by a God who reaches out, a God who gives mercy, a God who loves, a God who lifts up the disadvantaged and the marginal, a God that you see most clearly in the person of Jesus and the teachings of the Sermon on the Mount.

Okay, so there are those people. There’s that pool. I’m going to say that’s a pool of Christians. There’s also a pool of Christians that reads the Bible and is most drawn to a God who is a lawgiver and a God who set up the natural world.

And they talk a lot about God’s design for humanity. They talk a lot about natural law. What’s God’s design for parenting? What’s God’s design for politics? What’s God’s design for gender roles? These tend to be the focuses.

There’s much less Jesus mentioned because he just didn’t harp on God’s design or natural law a whole lot. But I’m now seeing this real tension between people who look to Christianity as a source of societal law and order and people who look to Christianity as an inspiration for lifting up the marginalized.

Trump appeals to the created order type because he can put everything back. He can put everyone back in their lanes. He can put women back in their lanes, minorities back in their lanes, immigrants back in their lanes, and we can make America great again.

Making America great for many people is restoring the order that they believe has been undermined by too much compassion and concern for other groups of people.”

Let that sink in.

According to Vischer, there are two “pools” of Christians. One that follows the gentle, merciful Jesus of the Beatitudes—and another that follows the crusty old lawgiver God obsessed with design, structure, and authority.

You can practically hear the subtext: Jesus is soft and affirming—the Father is rigid and repressive. Jesus lifts the poor—the Father slaps your hand with natural law. And if you happen to believe that God designed the sexes, ordained marriage, established family roles, and spoke with moral clarity about human behavior, you’re just part of the “Trump lane-pushing” crowd.

But here’s the theological disaster: Jesus and the Father are not in tension.
They are one.
Their words are not at odds.
Jesus didn’t come to erase the Law but to fulfill it.

The Sermon on the Mount doesn’t cancel Genesis—it confirms it. And any theology that pits the persons of the Godhead against one another is not just insufficient—it’s blasphemous.

Vischer has crossed from sloppy doctrine into heretical categories. He’s flirting with an age-old heresy—Marcionism—dividing the God of the Old Testament from the God of the New. And just like every other modern Marcionite, he dresses it up in compassion while smuggling in rebellion.
