False Christian teachings, trends….
In the following 13 minute video, you will see examples of tongue speaking by famous prosperity preachers T D Jakes, Bill Johnson, and Kenneth Copeland, among others. You will also see Bill Johnson’s congregation praying in tongues. Dr. John MacArthur and Phil Johnson discuss the Charismatic movement. There are several links in this post to MacArthur’s Strange Fire conference and other posts that are very related and offer further teaching
This post contains two brief videos: a John MacArthur 4 minute sermon excerpt on 2 Thessalonians 2: 10-11 on God sending delusion and why that occurs; and a 6 minute video that shows that the following phenomena, that are occuring in the church, also occur in occult meetings: uncontrollable laughter; involuntary jerking and shaking; drunkenness; transfer of power, and an invisible force. I believe that the second video is a fine example of God sending delusion to those who will not believe His truth.
The 6 minute video in this post is from Andreas Wiget’s YouTube site; he used the following words to describe it: Is “slain in the spirit” biblical? A quote by Costi Hinn (nephew of Benny Hinn) created heat on my Facebook page. This is a response to some of the arguments. [Andreas cited and explained several scriptural passages to undermine the modern idea of being slain in the Spirit.]
The 5 minute video in this post is about Hillsong leader, Brian Houston; it discusses two additional errors of his: 1) he frequently makes inaccurate applications for biblical texts; and 2), he frequently views Bible texts via a prosperity gospel mindset, creating error. [His errors likely go over the heads of his followers because they are not reading and studying their Bibles]
The following brief video is by Polite Leader; it explains the contemporary seeker sensitive church movement. He mentions several well known seeker sensitive mega church pastors, but his chief purpose is to explain the fundamentals of the movement so you might recognize them when you encounter them in your neighborhood. Additionally, there are links to related articles on preachers that were discussed.
Hillsong Music is used as a gateway to bring people into Hillsong churches and Hillsong theology. In this video, I repeat some of the analysis on Hillsong Worship which has previously been provided by Justin Peters, Cameron Buettel and Jeremiah Johnson. Polite Leader also supplied a dozen other links to videos on false preachers.
In this episode, I go over a fast and easy way to identify a false teacher. It is important to know who they are and who they are associated with. Protect yourself and your family from their false teaching and their doctrines of demons. Vlogger: John Henry; YouTube site: The Gospel of Christ
The following 2 minute devotional by J. C. Philpot talks about the necessity of the Holy Spirit’s work in the born-again believer. He describes the Spirit’s work by stating contrasting states that occur in us. This devotional is closely related to the preceding devotional by Philpot.
In January 2015, Doreen Virtue was listening to her car radio and heard a sermon by Pastor Alistair Begg about false prophets. Doreen recognized that she matched the description of a false prophet, and she began going to church. In early 2017, she began studying the Bible. When she read Deuteronomy 18:10-12, which lists the sinful activities of the new age, Doreen repented and gave her life to our Lord and Savior Jesus.
Pastor David Henneke uses much scripture to expose many false Christian preachers their music and writings; he provided a long list of names and explained why their ministries are not biblical [sermon highlights to his 55 minute sermon are provided]
