The Devilish Puppet Master of the Word-Faith Movement (1 Thessalonians 5:21) | Justin Peters

Summary

This sermon critiques the Word of Faith movement, or Prosperity Gospel, referencing Jude 12's "clouds without water" to describe teachers offering no spiritual nourishment. It debunks common defenses against discernment like "judge not" and "touch not my anointed," asserting that biblical discernment is a mandate and a duty for all Christians, not a mere gift, especially when fundamental doctrines are at stake. The takeaway is that Christians must test all teachings against Scripture and not shy away from identifying and warning against false doctrines and teachers, even when faced with criticism.
