"The Jim Bakker Show" recently promoted a coin decorated with President Trump's face as a "point of contact" withGod.

In a viral clip of the promotion, evangelical author Lance Wallnau described the $45 coin as a means for believers to establish a "point ofcontact" with God.

"When I asked the Lord 'Why the coin?' he said 'Because when you take the coin, it's a point of contact,'" Wallnau said in the clip, which wasshared on Twitter by Right Wing Watch, which "monitors and exposes the activities of Radical Right political organizations."

The coin depicts a photo of Trump alongside King Cyrus, the founder of the first Persian empire, and includes text reading "The 70 Year Decree"and "Cyrus-Trump Proclamation."

Last year, Wallnau referred to Trump as "modern-day Cyrus," saying at the time that "America's going to have a challenge either way. With Trump, Ibelieve we have a Cyrus to navigate through the storm," according to Vox.
